My Sim Won't Age Up
My child Sim was going to age up in one day, so I decided to throw her a birthday party. I invited some of her friends over and clicked on the cake for her to blow the candles. She did, but then she ...

Something is corrupt in your game. I have had this happen. You need to delete all the sims that wont age in your game or the problem you are having will not go away. It will effect you whole town. Mess up your family tree etc.
Here is how you get rid of it because it will effect your whole town. Any sim in your town that wont age up you have to delete. You may also need to move your sims to another house. I knew which sims (non active house) was causing the problem. deleted those children but the sim in my active household stll would not age up so I had to delete that sim too. The house that was causing the problem I moved those sims to a diffrent house and problem was gone. Moving some of my sims out of active household while pregnant is what caused it. It happened more than once so I figured it out. I did the move out option in game and let those sims use some of my active household simolens to buy them a new house, Did not move them in edit town if that helps
All of my sims whont age up and the animals it started yester day so i just lefd the game untill today it dint work my sims whont age up when it reches the top it goes bake to 0 i need help
Are you using mods ? Did you change anything at your game when it started ?
But how do you delete just the one child? Because I shift clicked on her but object delete doesn't come up and that is the only way I know how to delete individual sims. Thanks!
@DUBlady In order for the cheat to work, you need to have entered "testingcheatsenabled true" without quotes into the cheat console (crtl-shift-c to bring it up in-game). However, I would strongly advise against this, as it can completely ruin your game. When you delete a sim this way—a child, a pet, even an imaginary friend that has become animated—you only delete the "object," i.e. the body of that sim. Other data from the sim still remains in the game, and it can cause issues that may eventually make your save completely unplayable.
If you're having trouble aging up a child sim, I would recommend trying the other fixes in this thread instead. (It might be best to open the game and "save as" under a different name first, so you have a backup copy should things not go as you'd hoped.) For example, you can move the family out of its house and place it somewhere else in Edit Town; maybe bulldoze the original lot as well. Toggle aging off and on in options and move the custom age sliders around. Save, quit, and reload after this, playing for a couple of days to see if the sim can age going forward.
If you really need to get rid of that one child, your best option in the vanilla game is to create an adult, place him or her in the house, and then have that new adult and child move out to another lot while you stay with the rest of the family. (Or you could split the household in Edit Town.) This might solve the aging problem by itself. If the child sim still doesn't age after a couple of days, or you really just want her gone, you can go to Edit Town (while your original family is still active) and evict the child and your newly created adult from their house. If you don't place them anywhere else before returning to live mode, those two sims will become homeless and should disappear from your game sooner or later.
I’m having this issue now. My sim has 6 kids and i’m using Nraas mod but her youngest (3 girl triplets) i’m trying to age up the youngest triplet and she will blow out the candles but not age up. I’ve moved the house and copied the town and it doesn’t work
