Have your child use their cell phone and click the "Move" button. Then a screen will pop up saying where you would like to move that child. Pick a random house then on the pop up screen it will have a check box that will say "Make this active household" Make sure your child's picture is by the new house and make sure the rest of your family stays at your house. It is important to make sure that the check box saying "Make this active household" is on the side with the family you wish to continue playing with.
Thank you, so will I be able to play my child and the original family if I do this?
You will be able to visit that child at their household. However you will not be able to control them. The computer should comtinue their life itself. Thus meaning that evenutally he or she will get a girlfriend or boyfriend, then get engaged, married, and eventually have children of their own. But I do not believe there is a way to switch between households like that. But you may interact with that child like another Sim in the game. If you do not like playing that way I have made two houses before (on the same lot) and just had the Sims live in the different houses.
Ok I will try it that way, I was trying to switch between the two because my sims have more than one child and I wanted to continue to play both. THANK YOU for the information.
I also wanted to do the same I have 4 kids but I wanted to move one out with his girlfriend and live next door to me. But I couldn't control them so that was a disappointment so I understand how you feel.
