In the past, I have always started with a single YA sim, I eventually have them marry and either because of having a blended family, adoption, or the old fashioned way, end up with 4 or more children.
However, in my current save, I decided to try and do something different, so I started with an orphanage. I am basically playing the orphanage as my main household, and adding each of the adoptive families to my rotation as they happen.
It's turned out pretty well, I had the BB Hecking's adopt the first little boy, then two gallery and library childless couples adopt the next two. Finally, I had married Diego Logo and Gunther Munch, and had them adopt the 4th child. I love that you can actually set a sim as sterile in CAS now, and the set as care dependant option is a big help for my couple who are running the orphanage.
Now that the adopted kids are starting to age up to teens, I have decided to cut off the adoptions and just focus on playing the adoptive families. But, I can always go back to it later on, by perhaps having the original adopted kids become adoptive parents themselves and re-populate the orphanage again.
