1) How is Ayiti different from 3rd World Farmer? How is it the same?
Ayiti is different from 3rd world farmer because in 3rd world farmer you can play as long as you want but in Ayiti there are four seasons.Also in 3rd world farmer its only you working not your family. In 3rd world farmer all you do is grow crops but n Ayiti you can work in different jobs and send kids to school.It is the same as 3rd world farmer because you still have to keep your family alive and get a a good amount of money.
2) What strategies did you use? For example, did you combine work and school, or did you send everyone to work? Which worked? Which did not?
I combined work and school and I didn't end up so well. Everyone kept getting sick or dying. I tried using a different tactic. I sent the kids to school then in the summer i sent them to work on family farm and the parents would work in whatever they offered. Everything was going good until everyone started to get sick and in the end i ended up with -5468 money. At the end everyone died. =(
3) Why would parents choose to devote so much effort to sending their children to school? What obstacles did you face in trying to keep them in school?
I think parents choose to devote so much effort into sending their kids to school because they want a better future for their childeren's lives. they want their kid to have a higher education so that they can get a better job and get on with life. Parent want all their kids to be succesful. No parent wants to see their childeren end up homeless and living of the city. What college you get into effects what kind of job you get. Two people go to a job interview. One of them went to a community college and got the best grades and had a 4.0 average. The other one went to Harvard but didn't do so well. Which one would get the job?. I asked my father and my stepmom this question and their answers were that they want to see their childeren grow up and be happy, but sometimes kid just don't get. My stepmom was top of her class in colombia and graduated with honors. She had her degree for accounting and she made very good money, but when she came over here she didn't know what to do. She didn't speak english but she made herself be understood. She got a deent paying job but its nothing compared to what she earned in colombia. My father started college but sadly didn't get to finish because when he came over here he had to start working. He devots so much time in making sure that my brother and I have a better future than he did. I will always thank him for that, he's the best parent in the world. <3
