Island Paradise is known for it's glitching. If you're playing in Isla Paradiso, that's probably the one big reason why. Isla Paradiso has mapping issues beyond comprehension. Off the bat, I recommend downloading nraas.

Use these at your own discretion. These are modifications to the game and are not made by EA, but I can tell you for a fact they are extremely helpful.
Secondly, I reccommend not using Isla Paradiso. Move your family to a different town or just start a new game. (Your save may be broken anyway.)
Well, that's all I got, I hope it helps! Good luck!
So just how these work, and would it help if I just remove that item from the game
