The type of the mother I’m trying to be. Not just encourage bodily autonomy, but reward displays of it, even when it might make someone else in the room uncomfortable.

[swedepea]

I’ve made so many people uncomfortable in supporting my daughter’s personal space. People will try to hug her, she’ll sometimes say “No, thank you” and the adult will look at me to make her do it, but I just say “It’s ok honey, you don’t have to hug anyone you don’t want to.” It makes people irrationally huffy, making me feel even more justified in supporting my daughter’s choices. Creeps.

[misharoux]

I legit had to mom-voice some random woman with a “she said no!” when she tried to force a hug on Madison. (who was not very good at verbalizing to people she didn’t know/trust at the time)

She replied, “I just want a hug, it won’t hurt her.”

Me: She. Said. No.  

There aren’t many things more important than letting my daughter know that I have her back when it comes to something like this. 

[ineeduhnap]

I work with five year olds and I had a very long talk with them about permission and that your body belongs to yourself and no one else. “Even if you want to hug your friend, you need to stop and ask if it’s okay and if they don’t want you to touch them, you should respect that choice and not do it.” they were like “cool” and then every time after that they had no problem asking their friends “can I give you a hug?” Or “can I hold your hand?” Very politely. If their friend said no, they shrugged and went on with their life. They even started asking me if they could hug me or if it was okay to hold my hand when they were sad. And I always ask when they need comfort “do you need or want a hug?” If they say no, I ask “okay, let me know what we can do as a class to help you feel better. Quiet time? Do you want a stuffed animal? Sit on the couch? Do you need some time alone?” They verbalize what they need and they become aware of their own autonomy and their ability and power to say “no.” Just because someone is an adult does NOT give them the right to hug a child who has said “no” or “no thanks.” Teach then that they own their own body, and no one else is in charge of it. Teach them the power of NO.

[lazy-polyglot]

^^^^^this is so important

[publiusmaximum]

Whenever a kid refused to high 5 me for whatever reason, I make a point to say “thank you for stating your boundaries”.

[angiethewitch]

My husbands family get so offended when my stepdaughter doesn’t want a hug. I just tell them “no, she said she doesn’t want one”. They often try to force her to hug them or just grab her. It starts young, and they learn their body isnt their own.

When I first met my stepdaughter, if I asked for a hug, she wouldn’t say no, but she’d go into a protective stance and just wait. She was waiting for me to violate her boundaries. I told her “you don’t have to give me a hug if you don’t want one. You’re allowed to say no”. It took a while, but now she’s happy saying no.

Children have a right to boundaries as much as an adult does. Don’t violate a child’s boundaries.

[strange-lights-and-stardust]

It means a lot to me, for reasons I won’t go into, that you’re teaching your stepdaughter that. We need to teach more kids about this, and for that matter, need to teach adults to respect kids’ boundaries. 

[colehence]

Very important to tech both, children AND adults!

I need a whole squad of ace friends. More people who understand me and how it feels. My straight friends just don't get it

I'm thinking about doing a video or live stream talking about asexuality and answering any questions, etc. Is that something anyone would be interested in??

SIMSIE’S STARTER SAVE FILE VERSION 6.0 DOWNLOAD

The moment we have all been waiting for… the updated version of my Simsie Save. It took me forever, but it’s done. It’s updated for StrangerVille. Some of the recent packs have just…required a little more fixing.

I “fixed” the entire Sims 4. I went in and renovated every community lot, filled every empty lot with new homes and locations, and created new CC free townies to fill every empty house in the game.

What’s included? - 34 brand new lots - Renovated versions of every EA community lot - 65 new townie families (all with skills, careers, relationships, & stories)

What’s new in this version? - 2 new households with detailed backstories - 4 new community lots in StrangerVille (Saloon, gym, town hall, and park) - 4 new residential lots in StrangerVille - Fixed puppy epidemic Requirements and download instructions under the cut.

DOWNLOAD (simfileshare) + CLICK HERE to tour the save on my Tumblr!

*alternate download on Google Drive

What do you need?

EVERY PACK is necessary

The save will work without all the packs, but you’ll have naked Sims

Recommend this default skin (Knight Skin by madmono).

No mods or custom content are necessary.

* I’m only recommending my defaults to ensure that the Sims look the same in your game as they do in mine. EA skins aren’t the cutest and my Sims will be ugly without that default, I assure you.

Where can I get more information?

If you go to the Simsie Save Tumblr you can tour the save, read more about it, and see all of my new townies before you even download it! The explore pagelets you click through the worlds and there’s a page for each world listing all of the townies with their images and descriptions.

You can download all of my townies, homes, and renovated lots individually on my Gallery (lilsimsie). You might have to do some scrolling because I’ve been working on this for so long, but they’re all up there.

How to install?

Make a backup of your Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Saves folder.

Download the file, unzip, and place files in Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Saves.

If it says you already have a file of that name, change the slot number. You should probably choose something higher. Just make sure you don’t have that slot number already. (Example: change Slot_00000088.save to Slot_00000099.save)

Open your game and enter the save. It is named “SimsieSave6.0”. You’ll see it pop up with a ghost as the preview family.

Once you’ve got the save opened, make sure you “save as” and create a new file for your own gameplay. This way you can use the save again without having to redownload.

Place your own Sims or play with some of mine. Have fun!

I just wanted to drop a quick thank you at the end of this for all of the tremendous support I’ve had on this save. This is basically my child and I’m so glad to that so many of you enjoy it and are playing with it. Lots of love to all of you.
