Your Child (Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life)

Description
In special edition, there's the choice of having either a daughter or son. Although originally, the choice may seem random, but there is a way to getting what you want. Beside the waterfall at the top of the village, is a tree with a tiny door. Eat one of the mushrooms in front of it and you'll shrink and automatically go inside. At the back of the Harvest Sprite's house are a line of pots, talk to it a hundred times until it says "You win." Then you go talk to one of the Harvest Sprite's who will ask what gender you want, and then, voila! Although, if you have a daughter she will only take after the protaganist's appearance, but her personality still depends on the spouse. The first appearance of your daughter shares the same as Lumina's son.

Marlin's child is like Celia's. Gustafa's child is like Nami's. Rock's is like Muffy's.

You can pretty much get them to be what you want, but some are better at some things than others. Marlin's kid goes for farming or ranching, Gustafa's kid likes music, art, and possibly science, and Rock's kid likes athletics. There are two categories, strengths and likes. If your child has a good strength in a certain category, then it will be easier to increase their like of that category.

Your Diary and You- You can see what your son is interested in by looking at your diary. The meters will increase slowly during each chapter, but there will be a big jump between the chapters depending on how you answer the questions. For example if Rock says something to you like "Wow (kid's name) sure is a good athlete", you could agree or disagree. If you agree, it will give your kid a boost in athletics. But if you disagree, then every other category will receive a small boost.
