Why have kids in stardew valley?

[KrazyKricket01]

So far all they seem to do is be obstacles. Maybe they could add more to them besides run around and have more people in your house.Any other reasons?

Nope. The only reason you would have them is for the achievement, but after that, they don't do anything.

My thought was that they could maybe do a few small chores or actualy make them talk. Maybe they could grow up to be at least 13 instead of like 4.

in real life they are obstacles too

[Evil Overlord]

Yeah, I wish they aged upto maybe 8 so they would atleast talk. Atleast then it would feel less like having a pair of moving obstacles.

Roleplay reasons, basically.

I think it would be better if they were able to grow up and do things around the farm like feeding animals or watering crops just like your spouse can sometimes. I'd find it quite helpful.

Once you get the achievement, GET RID OF THEM! Kids and a cat are both a pain in the azz.
If only i can turn my cat into a dove...

I think it would be better if we could throw them into the sell box cause kids sell good. The spouse start complaining? knock her up/him out and move on with selling kids at 100k a pop.

Stardew Valley 2 begins with your child, who is sick of farm chores, moving to the city to work for JoJo. They find a cryptic message in their fathers old crappy apartment that says, "In 3 years, if you haven't been killed by a passing car, shot in the groin, or std related illness..."
Bicycling level 10 will be a massive help in part 2.

I think the kid should depend on the spouse + your character interests.

Hayle's kid - wannabe actor/ress that ends up a 2bit ♥♥♥♥♥ with an overly aggressive pimp
Abby's kid - reclusive shut-in gamer that ends up in some MOBA competitive team
Penny's kid - social worker OR <insert building> shooting perp cause of parental issues.
...
I have not played in like a year so cant remember the other female interests...honestly just remembered those cause of Screenshot section lol.
