I think I read somewhere in the thread that other ppl are getting messages regarding whats happening to other sims that are not their current active household (not just deaths). How do you get that to show?

Also how do I click and increase the stats meters?

what does wandhere do? (no i never played sims2, so "the sims2 wand thing" doesnt ring a bell)

And is the following normal?
- I switched active household and stood outside the house of the family I was playing. Essentially what happened was they just all went home after school/work, went through thte door and stood there as their stats went down.

- kids all over town are majorly failing school, heck they dont even go

I tried to read through the posts, but then the words got to me =( sorry in advance if I repeated any questions. thx
