Hi,
I just started using mods too! I'd been admiring the Foster Family Mod by LittleMsSam for a long time, but I was really scared that mods would cause too many problems, or that updating them would be a big chore. Finally, I saw someone recommend a mod that would allow toddlers at parks. I'd wanted toddlers autonomously at parks for so long, and I finally decided to take a chance and place a few mods into my game. It's a whole new world! I'm having a lot of fun with the Foster Family Mod, although I have only used it to foster pets so far.
I also was really scared to use mods, but I'm so glad I took the chance. Using mods is not nearly as frightening or troublesome as I thought. I hope you have a great time too @PinkyPus
