I just attempted this, but I can't age up my toddlers early. I checked online to make sure I wasn't remembering incorrectly how to do it via cheating (shift-clicking on the sim and selecting it there), but it looks like that cheat has been removed as well.
Not just that, but my toddler's growth has been completely reset (as has my adult) when I've been playing them for ages, and I just don't want to go through any of this with this family again (I've maxed out everything except this final toddler milestone, so they are utterly boring to play as and I was hoping to force them to age up when I had completed everything like I did for them as infants—can't even age them up early via cake like I'm sure we could before).
I'm so done with this game, it's been MONTHS and instead of this issue finally being fixed, I can't even attempt the work-around! I don't want to install mods or anything, especially after learning how it breaks events. I don't enjoy this game anymore, I'm only playing for the Christmas even but I'm beginning to wonder whether that's even worth it. Instead of fixing anything, more things are getting broken and I'm sick of it.
