Overview: Sims with the Family Aspiration long to be part of a big, happy
          family.  They need "Quality Time" with family members, and lots of
          meaningful interactions with all the brances of their family tree.
          Keep their Aspiration Meters overflowing with familial bliss, and
          they'll live long and "fruitful" live.

cuddle it like a baby.
