How do you not get bored of a family?

@lakire - I usually bulldoze the majority of the community lots and download new ones from the gallery. I usually make at least a few small edits to the lots I download and make sure they are functional before playing. I enjoy building once in a while but I'm more of a game player.

I always play with aging (only for the household I'm playing) on and on normal lifetime. I also leave autonomy on but I don't often just let my Sims be - I direct them on what to do for the most part. But it's nice to know that if I'm busy with one Sim they can still take care of themselves - even if they go grab a drink of water every 5 seconds, lol.
