Hi there! It sounds like you’re having trouble with adopted kids in the Family Life app not attending school or being able to work. I want to make sure I understand your issue clearly so I can help you effectively. Are you referring to a specific behavior in the app where adopted kids don’t go to school or take on jobs, or is this related to real-life concerns about adopted children? Also, if this is about the app, are these kids stuck at a certain age or stage?

Once I have a bit more detail, I can guide you through steps to potentially fix the issue or explain how the app mechanics work in this area.

The app. they are aging fine, and even give popups of things "happening at school" etc but you don't actually get to choose which school or university and then when they age out of school if you have a business, they do not come up as an option for hire

Thanks for clarifying! From what you describe, in the Family Life app, adopted kids do show school-related events through popups, but you can’t actually choose their school or university. Then after they finish school, if you own a business in the game, these kids don’t appear as candidates for hire.

This sounds like the current mechanics in the app might be limited regarding control over school selection and the employment eligibility of adopted kids, specifically for business hiring. It may be designed to simulate events without player choice in education paths or employment options for adopted children.

Here are a few steps we can try to explore or work around this:

1. Check for Game Updates: Make sure your app is fully updated. Sometimes new features like school/university selection or hiring mechanics for adopted kids get added in patches.

2. Review Game Settings: Look through any in-game settings or management menus related to family, education, or career to see if there is an option to assign or influence schools/universities or job eligibility.

3. Test with Biological Kids: See if biological children in your game can be assigned schools or hired in your business. If they can, it suggests adoption-specific limitations currently exist.

4. Save and Restart: Occasionally, game events are delayed or require a restart to fully unlock options, such as hiring.

5. Community Forums or Developer FAQs: The Family Life app might have forums, an FAQ, or a support line to confirm if this is intended behavior or a bug. The absence of school choice and hiring adoption status could be a known limitation or an issue they are working to fix.

If you find that no options for school or job control appear for adopted kids but do for biological kids, it likely means the app’s current version doesn’t support those features fully for adopted kids.

Would you like me to help you find the official Family Life app support or community spaces to explore this further? Or do you want to try troubleshooting update or game setting steps first?

Can I change school notifications in Family Life app?

Thanks for your question about changing school notifications in the Family Life app!

From what I’ve gathered, the Family Life app itself may not have built-in options specifically for customizing school event notifications. However, related apps like Google’s Family Link, which manage family and child-related controls, do allow you to adjust notification settings by:

1. Opening the Family Link app.
2. Tapping on Notifications and then Settings.
3. Choosing the type of notification you want to change and toggling it on or off.

If Family Life is connected with services like Family Link or other parental control platforms, you might be able to adjust school-related notifications through those linked apps or services. Otherwise, the in-app notifications about school events might be fixed and not customizable within Family Life itself.

If you want, I can help you check your app to confirm if any notification settings are available or help you explore connected apps that may influence these notifications.

Would you like to proceed with that? Or do you want help searching for more specific steps within the Family Life app?
