I don’t play with aging on, so none of the children or teens with stuck phases have age transitioned yet. I assume the phases would disappear though upon age up.

This bug we have is when they are still children or teens and the gameplay suggestions for removing the traits don’t work. Like for picky eater I should be able to get the parents to discuss better eating habits and it should go away. But it doesn’t.

It appears as though if a child or teen has a phase and then I switch to another household in my rotation and come back, the phase timer has expired, but the trait was not removed properly while they weren't the active household.

Workaround:
If I use cheats to restart the phase, then I'm able to perform actions to encourage the children/teens out of the phase naturally.

      Hello, here is a link to a save file of mine: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1DBJWey6HN63gwrHgOgZMy7_EabLWt_lL

      The family in question is in willow creek in the top left district, the Kyran household. In the household there is a sim named Ronson Kyran, if you take a look at his traits you'll see that he is in two phases, the Picky Eater phase and the Rebellious phase. The phase that Ronson was stuck with before he was in both phases was the Picky Eater phase. Sims who are stuck in a phase lose the phase upon aging up, Christa Kyran recently aged up to young adult after being in the Picky Eater phase for most of her teen life, and no longer is in the phase.

        Had to completely replace a child in my family (save to gallery and then readd with family relationships) because they were stuck with the bear phase and it wasn't ending. Cheats to remove weren't working, and I didn't have any options on parents to discuss it with her. She now has a clingy phase and it isn't ending either.

        I'm doing a rotational play with aging off.

      Hi, I was just looking for a cheat to get my stuck kids out of "frozen" phases when I saw this.
      I would describe it the same way as @simvasion in post #9

      The save file I send you the other day (about relationships disappearing) also have this problem.
