[FIXED] [GF] [S] Children/Teens can't quit after-school activities

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.90.358.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? preordered high school years, already have Cottage Living, Snowy Escape, Eco Lifestyle, Discover University, Island Living, Get Famous, Seasons, Cats and Dogs, City Living, Get Together, Get to Work. Game packs include Werewolves, My Wedding Stories, Dream Home Decorator, Realm of Magic, Strangerville, Jungle Adventure, Parenthood, Dine Out, Spa Day, Outdoor Retreat. Stuff Packs include Paranormal, Nifty Knitting, Tiny Living, Moschino, Laundry Day, Toddler, Fitness, Backyard, Kids Room, Romantic Garden, Movie Hnagout, Spooky, Cool Kitchen, Perfect Patio. I also have the following kits: Little Campers, Decor to the Max, Industrial Loft, Blooming Rooms, Bust the Dust.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a child in the scout afterschool activity. use phone to quit scouts and the option is no longer there since most recent update. Only option is to Join an afterschool activity, not to quit one.
What happens when the bug occurs? Child sim cannot quit afterschool activity via the phone (or any other way that I know of- I also tried looking in the work panel, clicking the computer, and clicking on the sim as well as trying with children in other saves. Teens involved in scouting had the option to "quit job")
What do you expect to see? "Quit afterschool activity" should be listed as an option on the child's phone when already enrolled in scouts.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Most recent patch 7/26/2022

I can confirm that I'm seeing this issue since the July 26 game update for my child sims. My sim child is in Scouts and the only option is to join Drama Club.
My teen had the option to quit job and when I chose that option it did give him the option to quit Scouts. Scouts (and drama club) have always been under the job option for teens, even before the July 26 game update.
I play on Windows, my game version is 1.90.358.1030, I have all expansion, game and stuff packs (except High School Years as it's not released yet as I'm writing this) and most kits. This is a new save that has never had mods in it as I removed my mods folder before the update and haven't added them back. I was able to have my child sims quit Scouts before the July 26 game update.
Best regards,
Jennifer

@mumofharry Someone else made a report and I moved your post into this one.

Usually only the first post needs the template so since I merged yours it's not necessary anymore.

Thanks for replying though.

I found that if you are a teen, you do have an option to quit the teen after school activities. Use the Business icon on the phone and choose the quit job option at the bottom of the list. So teens can quit the activity. And they can quit their part time job too. I did not have the situation where my teens had both an afterschool activity and a part time job though. I didn't add a part time job until after quitting the activity. I don't know if you get stuck if a teen has both at the same time.
For children though, there is no quit job option on their phone so they can only change after school activities between scouts and drama club. So, they are stuck in one of those until age up it seems.
Hope this helps.

I am having this issue as well. I got a screenshot of the dialog when it comes up but my teen was able to quit, it showed 'Quit Job' when they aged up to teen.
