My Sim won't stop doing an action!

So one of my sims is trying to teach a toddler how to talk, and the toddler learned completely but won't stop talking. I've tried to cancel the action and even added a new one for both sims, but they won't move. All that happens is the toddler keeps talking while the adult sits on the floor watching. What do I do??

    Hi there. Sims in TS3 cannot go to a computer while they are performing some other action, they can only queue up a computer related interaction for afterwards.

    Either I'm not understanding what you are describing or possibly you are playing TS4 and posted this in the wrong place on the forum?

    I had the same thing happen to me about a week ago, before the problems I'm having now.
    I had to save game, then go to edit town, split up household, moving out the parent that was training, and leave the toddler and other parent there. Then once on clipboard, moved parent back into household. It gave my family more money doing it this way.
    But my toddler should have been taken away by social service worker, and dead by the time I saved and split up household. The adult was given back all his stats, but toddler was/should have been dead.
    No one in house could sleep /or/ given the option to sleep, until I split up family.
    Toddle was starved, way passed sleep needs, and bladder expired, causing a much needed bath.
    The only thing she didnt need was social.
    Good Luck!
  • Yes - I think we're all been there at some point ^
    Getting a stuck action is horrible the first time.

    resetSim is one of the best cheats the game has to offer! You will be surprised how often this comes in handy!
  • My sim was stuck going to bed and the "resetSim" cheat worked perfect! Thanks :-)
  • Actually, my sim wont stop going to the computer while she was working out and teaching her child. This is very bothering
  • I had to remove the deep fryer because my sim would not stop eating fried chicken. LOL
