The thing that helped me felt very counterintuitive, but I ended up just picking one family member as a 'main' character, and letting the rest run on their own.
My instinct is always to try and micro-manage everyone in the household, which gets stressful quickly. If I focus on one person and let the rest just generate their own stories I tend to last a lot longer.
