I have recently started playing more than building and decided to go achievement hunting and playthrough some generations. I started my first family and have a decent amount of achievements already. ...

The mod MCCC can be used to both freeze and unfreeze a lot of things about townies, in-active households, and played households you're not currently in.
Elements such as relationships, jobs, marriages, even pregnancies and more - all of that can be either locked from occurring or set to occur autonomously where it doesn't by default.
I use this to set 'aside' some families to not be culled by the game, keep others from ever breaking up marriages or moving elders out - while others actively do these things.
If you want to 'freeze' the households that are played, but not being played "right now" MCCC is good for this - but note that by default it will start doing a lot of wild things to your townies. So if you get it, before you hit 'play', run through ALL the menus and make sure they look right - and have a backup save in case you missed something.
I know that makes MCCC sound risky but it isn't. I've never messed up a save from forgetting to set something - but I have had to revert a save from setting something and not realizing what it would do until I started playing.
