Vernon & Gladys Morse These two are quite the couple. Gladys is always out looking for excitement in all the wrong ways and Vernon usually finds himself glooming over the tiny details in life....
Actually, these two are the subjects of the thread; Vernon and Gladys.
Also, they don't have to be the same age to be siblings. My sister is almost 7 years older than me. But in any case, they could be unrelated or Mother and Son or Aunt and Nephew or Brother and Sister, it's just a guess until someone can confirm their relationship. :-)
@JonaO703 , you are right, but I think what @PipMenace was trying to get at is that Gladys is not of the same generation as anybody else in the photo with the adults, and they just used the blonde woman as a better comparison since they were both women. 😉
While it is true that siblings can be far in age (I know of some who have older siblings 15 years older! 🤨) there is no way then that the little toddler with the red hair , hat , and pink dress standing in Gladys's spot can be Gladys since if she is a much older sibling, she couldn't be a toddler at the same time as her younger brother! If Vernon is 2 or 3 years old and Gladys is at least 7 years apart (like you and your sibling), she would have to be 9 or 10 years old!
I think this was just a promotional piece that was having a little fun with the well-known artwork featuring grown-up Sims! 😎
@PugLove888 Ah, okay. That's a fair point. I didn't think about it that way and you're probably right that it was just for a promotion. That being said, it is possible to have sims start the game in the same "generation" but age differently. I usually have aging turned off and hardly ever age sims up at the same time. I've had several play-throughs with NPCs and played sims starting as YA but then only aged up my played sims. There were elders and YA sims in the game that were the same age at one point. So, you could very well start a game with all those toddlers that end up with various ages. :-)
Anyway, my post wasn't about proving they were siblings, just that it could be a possibility but, again, they could have any other kind of relationship as well; familial or not. I'm still curious and wondering if we'll ever know.
As an aside, I just noticed that Gladys is featured in the Detective Career photo. I don't think I would've known who she was if not for this thread. lol
@JonaO703 This is why we need one of the people who worked for the game and probably know about the creation of the household to step up and answer our dilemma. ;-;
@JonaO703 , yeah I have seen some Sims start in the same generation but then age differently, but I think it was mostly either Sims that were not made at the same time in CAS as one household and were added later, or Sims that either came with the game and made by the developers or else Sims that I downloaded from the Gallery. Usually when I make Sims the same Lifestage, they age up on the same day, if I make them at the same time in CAS. But you are right -- I have seen that as well! 😄
Interesting about Gladys being shown in the Detective Career! 🤨
@diavolosims , I always thought Babs had the Cheese hair (as several have called it) --I never remember it being a different color. 🤔 🤷♀️ Yes, I wish the person or persons who made Galdys and Vernon would solve this mystery for us! 🔎😅
