What do you build into your houses?

Hm. Mine almost always drop homework in the front room or on the porch. I keep having issues with a kid standing by a desk and gesticulating wildly that they can't get to their homework, even though they managed to put it on the desk just fine. Wtf?

Thank you, these are just the thing. I'm registered but thanks for the offer, too.

jolrei:
I use the Homework Sometimes hack, which reduces the amount of homework (more realistic, or at least it appeals to the part of me that feels that homework is bad for kids anyway).  They seem to drop the homework in the room with the desk in any case, either on the desk or on the floor beside.  I had one house where the teens would consistently get distracted when getting off the bus and drop their homework on the front walk.  This led to 9:00pm sessions of homework outside.  Eventually, I installed outdoor lighting for them so they could do it more conveniently.

At about noon everyday i cancel out the school icon. When they get home they drop their homework next to the mailbox and go about their business. I put a couple outdoor lights right in front, and they can do their homework there.

I take it you don't have Seasons?  In my game I had young Zander Roth sitting hip-deep in snow by the letterbox, doing his homework.

Considering that my father had to walk uphill through the snow both ways to school every day (true, my family is from West Virginia originally on both sides), my simmies can do their homework in the snow.

I do the same cancel-out, but typically once they drop it I go into buy mode, move it into the living room, go back into play mode and que up some actions to get their motives homework-ready, then let them do it in the living room. The C generation had to do it in the front yard in all seasons because they had too many kids for the house and I don't do rebuilds. Plus it was funny.
