Childcare & Guardianship System
The Childcare & Guardianship System transforms childcare into a realistic and meaningful part of family life instead of a simple background mechanic.
Parents aren’t always available due to work, school, travel, emergencies, or personal commitments. Rather than children automatically staying home alone, players decide who will care for them, whether it’s a parent, grandparent, older sibling, relative, babysitter, nanny, daycare, or after-school program.
Every caregiver has their own personality, experience, parenting style, availability, and relationship with the child, creating unique experiences and memories. Parents can set care instructions, manage pickup permissions, organize recurring childcare schedules, respond to emergencies, and gradually grant children more independence as they grow.
Children also develop preferences, favorite caregivers, long-term emotional bonds, and childhood memories that influence their personality, sense of security, future relationships, and even how they choose to raise their own children as adults.
Instead of childcare being invisible, it becomes an important gameplay system that strengthens family relationships, encourages planning, creates unexpected situations, and makes every family feel unique across generations.

Best friend’s house
-
Aunt and uncle’s house
Parents decide:
-

Hospital visit.
-
Business trip.
The player must quickly find someone to care for the child.
Child Preferences
Children develop favorite caregivers.
Examples:
“I want Grandma to pick me up.”
“I don’t like that babysitter.”
“I want to stay with Uncle Mike.”
Some children feel safer with certain adults.
Caregiver Relationships
Children build unique relationships with caregivers.
Examples:
-
Favorite Grandma
-
Cool Uncle
-
Strict Aunt
-
Trusted Babysitter

These relationships continue throughout life.
Co-Parenting System
If parents are divorced or separated, childcare becomes more dynamic.
Options include:
-
Shared custody
-
Alternate weekends
-
Week-on/week-off
-
Holidays schedule
-
Flexible agreements
Children move between homes according to the custody arrangement.
Family Permission System
Parents decide who is allowed to care for their children.
Permission levels:
-
Always allowed
-
Ask first
-
Emergency only
-
Never allowed
This can be set individually for every family member or trusted adult.
Child Pickup System
At the end of school or daycare, children don’t disappear automatically.
Players choose who picks them up.
Possible options:
-
Mother
-
Father
-
Grandparent
-
Older sibling
-
Babysitter
-
Family friend
-
School bus
-
Walk home alone (older children only)
If no one arrives on time, the school may call the parents, the child may have to wait in the office, or another authorized caregiver can be contacted.
Independence Progression
As children grow, parents gradually decide how much independence they have.
Examples:
Young Child
- Must always be supervised.
Older Child
-
Can stay with grandparents.
-
Can visit a friend’s house.
-
Can walk to a nearby park with permission.
Teenager
-
Can stay home alone.
-
Can babysit younger siblings.
-
Can take public transport.
-
Can pick up younger siblings from school.
Each family decides when these privileges are unlocked, making every household feel different and reflecting each parent’s level of trust and parenting philosophy.
Child Personality Awareness
Parents don’t always know the best way to raise their children.
Over time, they gradually discover personality traits such as:
-
Very Sensitive
-
Stubborn
-
Easily Motivated
-
Independent
-
Introverted
-
Extroverted
-
Curious
-
Easily Distracted
-
Competitive
-
Honest
-
Manipulative
These traits influence which parenting methods are most effective for each child.
Different Love Languages
Not every child feels loved in the same way.
Some value:
-
Hugs
-
Words of Praise
-
Gifts
-
Quality Time Together
-
Help with Homework
-
Playing Together
If parents express affection in the way their child values most, their relationship strengthens much faster.
Natural Consequences
Parents don’t always need to punish their children.
Sometimes, the best lesson comes from natural consequences.
Examples:
-
Didn’t do homework → Gets a lower grade.
-
Didn’t clean the bedroom → Can’t find favorite toys.
-
Spent all their money → Can’t afford the toy they wanted.
Parents can simply allow children to learn from their own experiences.
Discipline Effectiveness
Every consequence has a different level of effectiveness.
Example:
No Video Games
★★★★★
No Phone
★★★★☆
Extra Chores
★★★☆☆
No Dessert
★☆☆☆☆
Grounded
☆☆☆☆☆
The effectiveness depends entirely on the child’s personality, interests, and daily habits.
Ineffective Punishments
Sometimes a punishment simply doesn’t work.
For example:
A teenager no longer plays video games.
Taking away their console has almost no emotional impact.
The game could display:
“Ineffective Consequence.”
This encourages players to choose consequences that actually matter to that child.
Negotiation System
After receiving a punishment, children can try to negotiate.
Examples:
“I promise I won’t do it again.”
“Can I lose my phone for only one day?”
“I’ll clean the whole house.”
Parents can choose to:
-
Accept
-
Refuse
-
Reduce the Punishment
-
Increase the Punishment
Apology System
Children can apologize after making mistakes.
Different types of apologies include:
-
Honest Apology
-
Forced Apology
-
Fake Apology
-
Emotional Apology
Parents react differently depending on their personality, parenting style, and relationship with the child.
Broken Promises
After promising to improve, children might:
-
Keep their promise.
-
Repeat the behavior.
-
Become better at hiding it.
This directly affects the Trust system between parents and children.
Secret Rule Breaking
Children don’t always follow the rules.
They might:
-
Play video games in secret.
-
Use their phone late at night.
-
Sneak out through the window.
-
Lie about homework.
-
Eat candy without permission.
If they’re caught, trust decreases.
If they aren’t caught, parents remain unaware—at least for now.
Sibling Influence
Brothers and sisters influence each other’s behavior.
Examples:
“Your brother did it too.”
“Your sister never behaves like this.”
Children may:
-
Defend themselves.
-
Blame a sibling.
-
Take responsibility.
-
Cover for their sibling.
Family Meetings
Parents can gather the entire family to discuss important topics.
Examples:
-
New House Rules

Every family member has the opportunity to express their opinion.
Weekly Check-ins
Once a week, parents can have a meaningful conversation with their children.
Questions may include:
“How are you feeling?”
“Is school going well?”
“Is anything bothering you?”
This encourages regular communication instead of only talking when something goes wrong.
Chore Contracts
Parents can create customized chore agreements.
Example:
Clean Bedroom
Reward:
€5
Frequency:
Every Saturday
Deadline:
6:00 PM
If not completed:

Trust System
Relationships aren’t based only on friendship.
Parents and children also build Trust.
Higher trust provides:
-
Less Supervision
-
More Freedom
-
Higher Allowance
-
Later Curfew
-
Fewer Check-ins
Lower trust results in:
-
Parents checking backpacks.
-
Parents checking phones.
-
More questions about where the child has been.
-
Location sharing requirements.
Privilege System
Instead of relying only on punishments, children gradually earn privileges.
Examples:
-
Own Bedroom Key
-
Later Curfew
-
Sleepovers
-
Shopping Alone
-
Driving the Family Car
-
Own Debit Card
-
Traveling Alone
-
Inviting Friends Over
Privileges can also be temporarily revoked when trust is broken.
Parenting Journal
Each parent keeps a parenting history.
It records:
-
Number of Punishments
-
Rewards Given
-
Important Conversations
-
School Meetings
-
Family Activities
-
Broken Rules
-
Good Behavior Streaks
This allows players to track how their parenting style evolves over time.
Parenting Styles Can Change
Parents aren’t locked into one parenting philosophy forever.
Their approach can evolve through life experiences.
Example:
Before:
Very Strict
After years of family conflict:
Balanced Parenting
Or even:
Relaxed → Strict
As children grow or family circumstances change.
Different Parenting Cultures
Every city or culture can have different parenting expectations.
Examples:
-
Families that highly value academic success.
-
Families that encourage independence.
-
Families that prioritize traditions.
-
Families with a more relaxed parenting style.
This makes every city feel culturally unique.
Family Council
Families with older children or teenagers can make certain decisions together.
Examples:
-
Curfew
-
Allowance Amount
-
Screen Time
-
Vacation Destination
-
Weekend Plans
Family members discuss, negotiate, and vote before reaching a decision.
Parenting Goals
Parents can define long-term goals for raising their children.
Examples:
-
Raise an Independent Adult
-
Encourage Creativity
-
Build Strong Discipline
-
Develop Financial Responsibility
-
Improve Emotional Intelligence
-
Promote a Healthy Lifestyle
-
Strengthen Family Bonds
-
Prepare for University
-
Support Athletic Excellence
At the end of childhood and adolescence, the game reflects how these parenting choices shaped the child’s personality, life skills, values, and future, turning parenting into a meaningful long-term system rather than simply a series of punishments and rewards.

Players can customize:
-
Monthly payment amount
-
Payment frequency
-
Shared expenses
