Starfield: How To Visit Your Parents With Kid Stuff Trait

Do you finally want to visit your parents in Starfield? Then this guide is for you.

In Starfield, you can visit your parents when you enable the Kid Stuff trait. The trait is unique in its own way and has many other benefits besides this one. The description for it is – ” Your parents are alive and well, and you can visit them at their home. But you will automatically send 2% of your credits home to them every week.” Here’s how to find the location of parents in the game.

How to Visit Your Parents in Starfield (Location)

• Go to the Constellation Lodge after you have chosen the Kid   Stuff from the Traits category. This can be done while selecting your character and its attributes.
• Next, complete One Small Step and The Old Neighborhood missions.
• When you are in New Atlantis, you will then receive a Note from your father, asking you to visit them.
• The location to visit parents in Starfield is the Pioneer Tower in the Residential District in New Atlantis (Planet Jemison in the Alpha Centauri system) . As soon as you reach their residential location you can then, select the kind of relationship you want to build or have with your parents.

Your parents will praise you and give you gifts based on the responses you select. Another fun fact is that your parents are going to look just like you, only an older version of your character.

Then, you will come to the part where you have to discuss shelling out two percent of your credits to your parents because their pension isn’t enough. There is a way to not abide by it, but that will require you to lose your parents in the game. They will move away when you disable this trait or choose another trait. This is why you must rethink whether you want the Kid Stuff trait as a part of your character story.

This was all about meeting or visiting your parents in the game. You can check out more of our guides on Starfield like how to mine Helium or how to take off Spacesuit .

You will want to know how to visit your parents in Starfield if you picked the Kid Stuff trait, as it makes them characters in the game and gives you some useful bonuses to take advantage of.

The traits in Starfield are optional features you can pick in character creation that give you some benefits with a tradeoff. Kid Stuff is one of those that adds your parents to the game , but forces you to give them 2% of your credits every in-game week.

If you can afford the cost and know how to make money consistently with jobs or smuggling contraband , it's a good trait to choose. So, check out how to visit your parents in Starfield.

How do you visit your parents in Starfield?

To visit your parents in Starfield, you will need to complete The Old Neighbourhood and One Small Step quests, and then head to their apartment at Pioneer Tower in the city of New Atlantis . 

Once the missions mentioned above are finished, you will get an Activity notification asking you to meet them . This will mark the location on the map making it easy to find, but if you need specific directions, you can find Pioneer Tower in the Residential District of New Atlantis.

Ignoring this notification will cause your parents to send a concerned note to Constellation, and they will eventually visit their HQ to find you - so there's no avoiding them really.

How to remove the Kid Stuff trait in Starfield
