Welcome to round four! It’s been ten years, so age everyone up. You’ll need a twelve-sided die, preferably from this site:

---

http://www.brockjones.com/dieroller/dice.htm

---

Roll your die to see if any couples who are in a relationship, are still together.

---

1-2: no longer together
3-6: no change in the relationship
7-12: the relationship has advanced to the next level (i.e. if the couple is dating, they become engaged; if they’re engaged, they get married)

---

Roll for new relationships for any single person over 18.

---

1-3: single
4-6: dating
7-9: engaged
10-12: married

---

Roll for new children. The oldest a woman can give birth is 45 years of age. Stepchildren and adopted children are your choice.

---

If the potential mother is 19-25: 1-6: no children; 7-8: 1 child; 9-10: 2 children; 11-12: 3 children
If the potential mother is 26-35: 1-4: no children; 5-6: 1 child; 7-9: 2 children; 9-10: 3 children; 11-12: 4 children
If the potential mother is 36-45: 1-8: no children; 9-10: 1 child; 11-12: 2 children

---
