What ages are each of the life stages?

I've always wondered if sims' age were based on our years rather than days, how old would they be?

Here's how I see it roughly:

Baby: 0-2 years
Toddler: 2-5 years
Child: 5-12 years
Teen: 13-19 years
Young Adult: 20-35 years
Adult: 35-55 years
Elder: 55+ years

Thoughts?

  • I take a somewhat similar approach with life stages; different numbers, but same idea.

    Babies: 1 or 2 days
    Toddlers: however long it takes to do the potty-training, walking, talking, and such
    Child: set at 14 days, but I usually throw a birthday party to speed things along
    Teen: again it kind of depends on the family/world dynamic. I think I currently have it set at 21 days
    Young Adult: 30 days
    Adult: 30 days
    Elder: whenever the Adults are ready to retire, I either throw a birthday party or toss an Age of Instant at them

    I live in Texas, and I wasn't considered an adult until 18. That being said, I am going to be celebrating the 3rd anniversary of my 29th birthday in November, so it's been a while.. However, I think I would have heard about it if things have changed.

    @nervous & Everyone Else:
    Babies are definitely infants. They can't do anything except eat sleep or poop.



    LOL @ 3rd anniversary! :D I'm on my 11th anniversary of that

    My babies enjoy a good snuggle or toss in the air too. Just watch out for the projectile vomiting. :D

    Nice way of putting it!!!
  • @R3B3CKVH :D

    And, for me, it'll soon be the 6th anniversary of my 29th birthday. :/
  • It would be so cool if you could hover over a sim and their age showed, and maybe a feature to add to that like middle school and not being able to date a 13 year old when your on your way to graduating haha
