The Kaufmann family (Decade Challenge is finished)
Hello fellow simmer, Originally I have started this challenge three months ago in July and I write about it in the 'What happened in your game today'-thread. But @MelsieYT asked me if the story is...
In 1961 too much happened to write it all down or even to shortened it. Most important thing was for Germany the build of the Berlin Wall which cemented the division between both states for next 28 years. It causes a lot of tears, separation and drama between families, in the end it stabilized the eastern state. Right before, the people started to flew and moved to the western state, meanwhile the west citizens and worker visited the east side and bought the cheap food. The western alliance saw nothing wrong with the wall and kept silence, which disappointed many germans.
In 1962 the cuban missile crisis (german: Kubakrise) kept the world in suspense, like the Spiegel affair in Germany later that year.
During both years I reorganized many households and reduced the number back to lower than eight. Back to the family.
The talk again, sigh ... I wonder if it will ever not be embarrassing for both?

When Hans and Annemarie went on a short trip, both teenager took the chance and started a party with their friend at home.
Where she met her newest pal and she got quite jealous about her style.

In 1961 the last child of Annemarie was born, her name is Sabine. Sabine was the name of my first doll and was quite popular name in the 1960's.
In June 1961 the "pill" was introduced in Germany and was prescribed only to married women over 30 years and who have born at least 3 -4 children yet. Annemarie fell in this category and that's the reason why I changed the household size from 12 back to 8.

But with a new life born, another (or more) life ended. I have to confess I was really sad in these days.
Helene Kaufmann, wife of the late Karl, brother of wilhelm died too.

The sad new spread around and broke the hearts of Lusias triplet sisters. Fun fact, I had my first alien abduction in the game here. The aliens took one of the husband. It didn't prevent him from death, I let their husbands die too.

With much sadness I saw that Mathilde had only 8 simday to live. So I decided to let visited her her brother. She felt her age and strangeness to the next generation.
