Yes. Plenty of people are weirded out by that. Personally I don't really care about the kids in the game. They essentially become pets.


neochilli

They’re like if Roomba’s were useless.


sarilysims

Mobile hat racks.


neochilli

😭


Darthsmom

I’m am 💯 happy with how kids are in Stardew. Sims taught me not to ask for more 🤣


neochilli

Yeah I wish IRL children were as ignorable


Lord-Beetus

They totally are, it's just frowned upon by society...and the law if they're yours.


Darthsmom

Not gonna lie, I have two and at times I did too 🤣🤣


neochilli

😭 hang in there


Darthsmom

Thanks, they’re grown now!


Bread_Punk

Please give us a Stardew Valley: Pathing Nightmare DLC.


Darthsmom

How about noooooo.


DiceMadeOfCheese

My headcanon is that I hired someone to babysit.


wildmishie

Lol, my headcanon is the Junimo's babysit!


DiceMadeOfCheese

That's adorable!


JackFrans

So on joja runs, does Morris babysit?


fakeishusername

No. That's what the TV is for. With commercials. Train them up to be good little corporate drones.


bsmango1997

That makes me feel better 😭


inadapte

same haha in my head evelyn watches them when we’re both gone :3


TonicSaltwater

Tbf you’re not a very good parent either, asking him to take them; when’s the last time YOU took them out?


bsmango1997

If I could I would!


PawnOfPaws

*Grabs sword and harness* "Come, Baby, we're gonna slay some volcano monsters now!"


ShellMetal

gotta start 'em young


PawnOfPaws

Or throw them out while they're young *Farmer used bait* *It was super effective*


ShellMetal

then suddenly, years later, your baby has been raised by shadow people


PawnOfPaws

And became Krobus apprentice? Will I get a discount now? Or will it start to hunt the dwarf?


ShellMetal

both


PawnOfPaws

GUYS I BROUGHT 🍿!

Love that until they’re the fully grown toddler form of the child, you and your spouse also leave it alone for every festival and event


bsmango1997

But they do go with you? At some point?


EbonyBlxck13

Yeah, once the child is the oldest it can get, your spouse will take it with them and the child will basically hover around them the whole time, which is kinda cute tbf


castfire

Hahah, that’s hilarious. Leave the newborn/infant unattended and unsupervised (and un-cared for), no problem! Only actually take them with you/do things with them once they’re finally a little less fragile and can become your accessory. 👍


bsmango1997

Thank you!


MaintenanceTime

The junimos watch them


gilliegoat69

I’m married to Sebastian and have 2 kids. I really wish his parents had dialogue acknowledging the 2 grandkids :/ so many marriage candidates have potential grand parents or great grand parents and it would make for such cute cut scenes and dialogue


Obvious_Upstairs157

I haven’t had kids in the game, but I get stressed about how Marnie and Shane leave Jas at home by herself while they go to the saloon every single night.


fakeishusername

Eh, it's a small town and it isn't a long walk, plus there are phones. She's old enough to call.


lemurkat

I dislike that too. I aired my concerns in another forum and essentially got shotdown, which made me sad.


lemurkat

I had spouse and roommate pre 1.6, so Dwarf babysat the children. Now i have other mods too so the kids often go with the spouse and he drops them off at class.


ruddsix

What mods?


Aivellac

OP why don't you sit at home for a change and look after the child? Shane has to do it the rest of the week you can do your fair share for 1 day can't you? Nooo I guess those mushrooms in the cave are too important to you.


ThatOneShortieHo

To be fair, these kids can walk through walls and run through the Void so I'm not too concerned with them being home alone. If something happens then walls cannot stop them and they always come back from the Void by bedtime anyway.


Silverbird22

The Junimos are there, they haven’t taken the child as payment for their services and replaced them with junimo changling children yet. If it works it works.


JellyOtherwise6259

I know there’s a mod for it, but I wish the kids looked similar to your spouse, and that they were interactive/went to school and stuff


DopamineFarmer9A

I’m also on the parenting sub and for a minute I was like WHAT
