This mod is inspired by the 'Growing Up in Skyrim' mod for oldrim. However since author abandoned it 7yrs ago and there has been no ports to SE I decided to make my own version.
This mod only supports the human races because RS Children overhaul doesn't come with playable beast or elven children.
Each human race has its very own childhood home, unique parents and siblings.
Bretons have their home in Whiterun close to the Gray-Mane's house. Imperials have their home by the mill in Falkreath.
Nords have their home in Riverwood and Redguards have their home outside of riften by the lake.
Each of the parents are trainers and will be able to train you in their own skills, you can check out which parents specifically teach which skill below.
The siblings act as followers and are all ranked at level 45, so they are quite useful early game.
The Nord brother is a two-handed warrior, the Imperial brother is a one-handed warrior, the Breton sister is a destruction mage and the Redguard sister is
an Archer.
The mod also comes with teenager races as well as a universal elder race.
The plan is to make it so that your character will automatically age as it reaches a certain level. In other words, as you level up you get older.
However due to this being my first ever mod I am not experienced with scripting so I can't implement it. You will have to manually do the aging by typing in
'showracemenu' in console commands.
While there isn't any scripts in place to force aging this is what I recommend.
Levels; 1-14 (Child), Levels; 15-21 (Teenager), Levels; 21-80 (Adult), Levels; 80+ (Elder).
Trainer List
Nord Father: Two-Handed (Bugged) | Nord Mother: Archery

(Parents can only train you once every 2hrs)
Required Mods:

Strongly Recommended Mods:
Jobs of Skyrim (Training costs money and getting money in the beginning without adventuring would be hard)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/7925
Alternate Start (So that you don't have to play through Helgen as a child)

Cheaper Training & Unlimited Training (Training is expensive (For a child) and it is by default capped so that you can only train 5 times each level)

Important Note
If you are familiar with scripting and you wish to make this mod better please feel free to contact me.
If you choose to make your own improved mod based on this one it's fine as long as you give credit and post a link to this original mod.
