How do you play your game?

If I let my sims do whatever they wanted, they'd never achieve their LTG. As it is I'm usually yelling at them, "NO YOU DON'T NEED TO GO TO THE MARTIAL ARTS ROOM TO BREAK MORE SPACE ROCKS. YOU'VE LITTERED UP THE ROOM ENOUGH." or "Oh...and just what bright idea is it that makes you pull out your electric piano RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE COTTON-PICKIN' FRIDGE SO THAT NONE OF THE OTHER SIMS CAN EAT!!!!?"

Yeah, if I didn't control each and every single part of my sims' day, they'd drive me bug-frickin' nuts.
