Hi, I'm a noob so perhaps this is expected but.. I got my daughter alien to wipe her mother's memory because her mother was angry because she'd empathised with an angry neighbour (who was angry because she was an alien...) .. well i didn't know it meant ALL of it, I thought it would just make her forget the conversation or something, help her feel better. After a few hours nap and a few hours swimming, her daughter had to introduce herself to her own mother. NOBODY seems upset though. Aliens are weird.
Oh, I've also chosen to try being off-grid. Daughter started off wanting to enjoy beach life as a tourist, but being alien, she can't tan (I changed her to fishing.) None of them (alien mum, daughter, and mersim roomie) can use the phone to get a job, the only one who has a job is the daughter (Doctor) and she keeps wanting to take days off. /)_-)
