I hope my kid brings in some kind of animal. I mean, having a pet fox would be pretty cool.
Which reminds me of a funny story.
I killed the (apparently) abusive father of a child. (Secretly with ninja moves... Okay I actually killed him by hiding behind a pillar in a bar and nobody seemed to care that a man fell down dead next to somebody holding a sword wearing armor and sneaking.)
Then I went to the orphanage to get the child. She said she would go to my lake view manor to live.
I didn't visit my house for in-game months. One day, I came home and there was a giant living inside my cow pen. My cow was dead. I became a werewolf, killed the giant, then I went inside the house, and apparently Lydia had been taking care of the house because it had not been crushed by giants and mammoths.
I came up to the bed where my child was sleeping and woke her up. I told her to go play outside. Then she said, "but it's dark outside, mama!". I checked the in-game time. It was 3:48am. I told her to go outside and play anyway. I then slept in my kid's bed until 9:50am.
I also brought her some clothes (stolen, of course), but it turns out the clothes were for boys.I just stuffed it into her drawers then.
What a great mother I would be...
I think I'll leave that caring up to Lydia.
