If only the world were more like a Schipperke story!
Rosa, I think you've hit the nail on the head as to why I play this game. Because it allows me to create a world free of the imperfections I see around me. And it allows my imperfect Sims to have a chance at a better life, something that unfortunately doesn't always happen in the real world. I suspect a lot of us play this game because it allows us to make a world the way we would like it to be.
As always, Rosa, your insightfulness continues to impress me.
I'm not a elder yet, but if I was a elder sim, I want you as a watcher. 
Louise, I think any watcher would be honoured to have you as a Sim in their game!
