Child Gets Sick?, Um...what? Options

[Zen Clarke]

So, I was looking on Youtube for any new videos of Harvest Moon, and I happened to stumble across this.

The person said they didn't know how they'd triggered it, and when I tried checking it out on Yahoo!Answers, the one question that may've answered it was deleted. Anyone know anything about that?

She didn't work for two days. I didn't tell her to water my crops, so she didn't.
I don't make her do my bidding every day. I don't have that much bidding to do in the first place. Usually I make her follow me around all day, because it raises her affection (she's still at 9 hearts) and it's so cute to see her totter after me trying to keep up. :D

It's odd, I'll go out there and I'll see her water my crops and she'll have about 20 of them done by 4:00, and it'll say, "Eliza watered 66 crops today!" No she didn't! I watched her! D:

I'm fine with the way the kids grow up. Actually, I kinda wish it were faster; I slept through her talking phase because I wanted to see her grown up. o_o
In EAM, though, supposedly it takes half as long for your kid to grow up (I.e. two weeks for each stage, and two weeks for pregnancy). I can hang with that.
It was like that in AWL because it skipped around your life all the time. I like seeing the baby grow up, though. Maggot-baby is pretty cute, and it's unrealistically low-maintenance! And I don't want my kid to grow up completely. I like her to be a kid. :3
