I liked reading about everyone's interesting Sim families, so I thought I'd share mine.
@Colorist40 Do you post about Mads and Viola and their children and grandchildren anywhere? I'd like to keep up with what's going on with them. Klara and Max raise Tamino exactly in the opposite way to how my current Sim family raises their toddlers and children (minus maybe the bedtime thing). Giving kids and toddlers more freedom regarding school and skills seems like a fun way to play.
My standard blurb about the Sims family I play, the Fiers, is that the Fiers are a vampire family led by an arrogant and socially awkward megalomaniac named Asher who, among other things, hopes to have 100 children. As of now, he's had 16. The youngest five recently became young adults and are discovering the perks of university.
As a whole, the family has a tendency to be patriarchal (but this has changed and is continuing to change as Asher hopefully grows) and ambitious. They've also amassed extreme wealth.

In the picture, the two standing are Asher Fier and his wife, Adelise. They're immortal. Asher is a vampire. Adelise is not. Seated are Asher's five youngest children, the fourth generation of children that he's had. The others have grown up and moved out.
Dawn, in the green dress, is the most normal of the five. She's the eldest and she's friendly, reasonable, and very easy-going. She's doing a biology degree at Britechester and has a long-term townie boyfriend who's an expert at fire dancing.
Darius is next to Dawn. He's the silliest of the five. These days, he's into art and becoming Simstagram famous. Because he's constantly setting things on fire and losing all sorts of games and competitions to his siblings, one would probably think that he's incompetent, but he's not. He's a talented painter, violinist, and he's doing well in his distinguished degree at Britechester.
Delmarya is sitting in the middle. She's the only vampire of the five, which bothers her immensely, so she tries to ignore the fact that she's a vampire, which … Anyway, Delmarya is also a perfectionist. She mastered all toddler skills, childhood aspirations, and parenthood traits. She's enrolled in the maximum amount of university courses, has a perfect GPA, and is almost at the very top of her career (university is only for fun), but because she's a perfectionist (and a vampire) she's incredibly insecure. Despite trying, she doesn't have many friends besides a toddler she met on the beach once and her siblings.
Dyna is the youngest of the five. She's Darius twin. She's sweet, quiet, and often overlooked because of the chaos caused by her parents and older siblings. She works hard and looks out for everyone, but doesn't get much attention herself. She's studying computer science in a distinguished degree at Foxbury; she's also on the soccer team.
Last is Dysis. Dysis is the most like their father. She's ambitious and competitive, and wants to become independently wealth, but she also loves trying new things and experiencing all that life has to offer. She fell intensely in love with someone who was obsessed with her, which has made it hard for Dysis to keep on top of her academics due to spending so much time with him. She missed giving one of her final presentations and she's also almost hopeless when it comes to artistic things like painting and flower arranging, but none of that is going to stop her from trying it all.
On the wall in portraits behind them are three more of Asher's children, all vampires, who have already moved out. His favorite child and first-born, Aster, then Barin and Calanthe.
Three pictures from their childhood.
