Do you look to see how a kid will look when they are older?

It makes it more exciting when they age up to wait! Besides, I never change a sim’s features since I don’t care much about appearances.

I do check them, but it's usually townies' offspring and I only do it when I'm curious of how the baby will turn out given the genetics of the parents. For example in my lepacy save, Connor Frio got together with Holly Alto, first time seeing that pairing and I was really excited about their babies because them both are so cute... I was so disappointed when I saw they mostly had Holly clones... :disappointed:

I also do it when I know the parents genetics could go bad together, like too low nose with a too high mouth or when they have the profile depth slider or the under chin depth slider too high (or low I don't remember) and the kids turn out with their tongues permanently out, like this:

Old pic, but the tongue is there... I always fix that, though I believe it happens mostly in Bridgeport kids and it goes away when they grow up... but it looks so weird I can't! :confounded:

I took a peek once, long ago, and decided to never do that again. :tongue:

I like surprises! Often, the 'not so cute' becomes the lovely one..at least in my game.. :)

It's hard to resist...

Too true, when I saw Miles as a toddler/child I was hoping he would turn out even semi normal...

but he grows up to this...untouched, no facial tweaks.

:love:

That was a really nice upgrowth, @Charlottesmom ! :open_mouth:

I like the surprise, and even if sometimes I'm tempted, I don't peek. It's a little different with the hero of my story, Derek. I created him adult and aged him down. So even though he was not a particularly attractive child, I knew what to expect when he grew up.

Haha, I try not to... But I hate the fact that that I get disappointed if a child becomes "ugly"... what kind of asshole am I :(

He looks great @Charlottesmom :)

I love how both guys grew up nicely, @Charlottesmom and @jillbg ! :smiley:

As for me, I sometimes peek, just to see how they come out. :smile: If they look bad, I can always cheat and re-do them, lol.
