How to Remove Starfield Kid Stuff Trait?
To remove the Starfield Kid Stuff trait, simply go up to your parents and choose the “I’m not sure If I can keep sending money back home” option. This will trigger a series of heart-wrenching set of dialogues where your parents explain that the money you send them is the only way they get by. Nonetheless, they will accept your choice with a broken heart and you will keep your 2%.
Honestly, it is better to just keep sending them money since 2% will not even make a dent in your bank account and you will have some sweet moments to cherish and always a place to call home.
