RESOLVED: I spend yesterday beginning a new save. I even labeled the current save folder: REDUX and placed a new folder into my game. Then I started this new save to be labeled Flashback. It is designed specifically to follow Erik Cantrell through his high school years. I made Aaron a YA, and Brianna a Child and Adrian a Toddler. If it turns out we can only control one Teen through school, then I'll age Joey down to a child just older than Bree. I have turned off aging, for the time-being since I decided to start my game in Summer. I have two-week long seasons. Erik has managed in the past to reach Global Superstar in as few as ten Sim days. I pray this can happen again, so that he's got this status when he begins school.
I will ultimately keep the REDUX save, by all means. I may alternate game play between the two different saves until the EP is released. Once we learn if we can control more than one Sim in school, I'll make a decision on Erik's children. The whole idea, is to eventually connect these two saves. In fact, I had an apostrophe (as Smee said in 'Hook': of course he meant epiphany) in that the Flashback stories can begin once Jamison, Erik's eldest is set to begin his four-year journey in education. This will set Erik upon a journey of his own, reminiscing about his years spent in high school. Then we may follow Jamison for a bit. I may even alternate Erik's memories with Jamison's reality, who knows? Just snippets.
I know this is the correct path for me as I am at peace with this decision.
I thank each and every one of you for your kind responses in helping me to sort this all out! Your advice was invaluable to me. You are all wonderful players and I like how we can all share and get and give help to others when needed. Many, many thanks!
