17-Pops As I sat outside in my lawn chair on the front porch of the Harding house watching as the Sims walk by, I noticed quite a few new children walking the streets and I wonder where are they coming from? In San Myshuno, there are six families that seem to linger around and prosper under the guidance of MCCC.  I feel for them, since they are stuck in the living arrangements that they started in, that two bedroom one bath, doesn't quite suite well for that family of six.
