If she is not at home before she leaves for either or, the game will still “send” her but she just arrives back at home a minute later. I’ll still get the notification that she was sent, but she really wasn’t. But my performance goes down cause she didn’t actually go. The only way she can attend one another is if she is already home, before she goes. She cannot be anywhere else BUT home before going to work or cheerleading.

The only time once when I didn’t have it is when I went straight home after school and the activity popped up. It’s a shame because it feels like this is the only bug (luckily) I came across. however on the side note I do feel like compared to the trailer the cheerleading feels misleading. I thought it would be an active play and not like a side job where you don’t join your sim. There’s never any cheerleaders except once every 2 weeks and the school feels not as impressive as shown in the trailer. I wish there was more to it with such a big sport field.

This is happening to me, too, and I'm not in a career. ☹️

Hi there!No my teenage sim is just in high school as i described. No job no carreer. Just a high school teen with a after school activity. Basically wherever she is except at her home this happens to me.

For people having this error:Can you please confirm the time that is on the clock when you are kicked into the home, with the Sim then returning from the school activities?usually if all your sims are at work, it takes you to the home lot and speeds its way through the time til someone is home. with the school clubs, it seems to me that it instead kicks you back to home and it's automatically the time the sims come home from the club. this makes it appear as though the sims aren't doing the clubs, but in fact time is just "skipped" while they're at the clubs.

Having the same problem. Except my teens parents were also at work and they all came home and all lost performance. This also happens if you save and exit your game when a sim is at work. When you load the game, the sim is at home and getting a call from their boss about performance.

[OPEN] [HSY] Sims come home from after school activity when on another lot

@leeb626 Do you have this issue only if you use the HSY after school activity and jobs or also if you use the scouts and some other part time job ?

@crinrict only the HSY jobs and activity

@leeb626 And this only occurs if she is in both. If she has just an activity/job it doesn't occur ?

Sorry for all the questions but it sounds similar to other bugs we have threads for already and I just want to make sure it's different enough.

I currently can't test myself-

@MisssPancakes Is your Sim also in a career ? Basically sounds the same as this: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Teen-Work-and-Activity-Bug/m-p/11678304 but that user says it's only occurring if they are also in a career.
