  1. I think this game is so cool but i let the dad die but i still have mom and the children and i learn if we work too hard than we will too tired and die, so we need to work 5 day and have a 2 day break.

  2. Helen: I think the challenges are like when they get sick they don't have the money to pay, so the sick will be more serious. They face each day are like they are just a little bit of people getting education so they must work, but now I think the education is really important to our life. But the problem is that they don't have the money to pay to the school.

  6. The worst part of this game might be the situation when the family members are in bad health and need to go to clinic or hospital, they don't get the medical care when they are running out of money. In this case money seems to be life-saving important. The financial condition of a family needs to be good, so that the family members have more opportunities to choose what and where they want to go. They seem to have less worries.
    It is sad that in the real life the situation seems to be not more different than in the games. I must admit that I am truly lucky to be in my current family. A huge thank to my family.

  7. I found out that in the first season they all worked then they would have a better life. I played two times, in the first time they all died in the second time I won the game!!!!!!! The challenges they face are: Bloody Diarrea, Cholera, Vitamin Defiencincy, Cold and Mild Fever. In my second I had money all the time, so every time their health went down to 4, I would send them home or to the clinic or school. I'm happy that my family has good education, I'm happy most of the time and I have excellent health, I thank anyone who helped me, especially my mum and dad.
