Well, that didn't do it, but it might help get that homework back when I switch back to the other game. It has to do with the lack of Opportunities. Her husband has available:
- Athletic
- Celebrity
- Charisma
- Dares
- Handiness
- Logic
- Photography
- Social Group Jobs
- Writing
She only has the three categories I listed above. Another character (a teen still in school), picked up the gardening skill on field trips to the Science Centre. At level two gardening, she has available categories:
- Career
- Celebrity
- Charisma
- Dares
- Fishing
- Gardening
- Logic
- Painting
- Social Group Jobs
- Writing
Under Gardening, she has available:
-- A Nice Harvest
-- An Apple a Day
-- fresh Tomato Sauce
-- Grape-Aid
-- Lettuce Help Out.
None of that is available to the level ten gardener. She has skills in Athletic, Charisma, Gardening, Guitar and Photography, but no opportunities for any of them. I'm sure it has to do with her original role as a non-playable character.
