I always play with aging off except in the household I am currently in but then I play rotationally with over 20 households and everyone I care about age at the roughly the same pace except a few households (premade) and all the homeless npcs and townies. That means that my families will always have neighbours and distant and not so distant relatives in world. If I were to play only one household I'd use the MCCC thing, probably.
Oh I didn't know we could turn aging off for everybody except the family that we play. I wish I had done this so all the popular townies hadn't died. I miss the goths and other familiar faces. I wish it was possible to add them back without restarting a new game. :'(
You can also set it separately for played and unplayed households. Aging for played households give you options for aging on, aging only for active household, and aging off. Then there's a checkbox for whether you want unplayed households to age.
