Why is there no family category?

I'm not a traditional family player, yet even I regularly wish that was an option. The biggest core family in my game consists of eleven sims across seven households, and that's not even including the second generation's spouses and children. A club limited to only 8 sims doesn't help there, but a family category in contacts would at least make it easier to keep track of their relationships.

I need this. 100%

I use clubs to help with this when I can but currently I now have several clubs just for one family. 8 isn't enough for all the aunts, uncles and cousins my sims have. With so many clubs for family and only being allowed into 3 at a time, my legacy family can't have clubs for anything else.

Yes, I meant a relatives category with every sim you know and are related to. Would be so helpful for family oriented playstyles.

You're right. It would be awesome to have that option. At the moment, when a family branches out, i immediatelly create a club named after their surname, so that i can 'call' all family either for a family dinner or for a day out, by statring a club meeting.

Oh you're so right. Im starting my second generation, that's why clubs still work for me. But you're right, it will fall short really quick :)

need so bad but even more i would like full relatives category that includes all the sims in your sims family tree (given they have met them)
