Humble Beginnings 12/15/24

 The new family (Harris) consists of a teenage girl, Kayla, and her toddler brother, Simon.  They moved into the abandoned warehouse, starting out as Poverty.  I had been counting on Kayla being able to ask her neighbors to "watch kids" while she was at school/work, but evidently teens can't do that, so she had a very rough time.  She did some begging and some fishing (once Simon became a child and she could take him to a community lot) and eventually got a job in Slacker.  She was sometimes able to pay the nanny and sometimes not, but by the end of spring she had to cash in her meager savings, which was not nearly enough to pay the rent or the crime syndicate; consequently, the Harris family will be demoted to Homeless and Kayla will pay everything she has ($57) to the crime syndicate (plus be unable to work for one day, but it won't really be an issue because she'll be homeless and jobless lol).  Since she did become an adult by the end of the round, she should have things a bit easier, despite losing status.

Happy Simming!
