[OPEN] Toddlers call caregiver to put them down from a regular seat

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? n/a
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Get to Work, City Living, Get Together, Cats and Dogs, Seasons, Outdoor Retreat, Spa day, Dine Out, Vampires, Parenthood, Jungle Adventure, Kids Room Stuff, Bowling Night Stuff, Toddler Stuff, Laundry Day Stuff, My First Pet Stuff.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Step 1: Use a toddler with MAX movement skill and a caregiver. Step 2: Place a dollhouse and a seat in different floors with medium height walls. Step 3: Have a toddler sit on any seat (sofa, dining chair, etc.) that isn't a high chair and the caregiver in a different room. Step 4: Direct the toddler to go play on the dollhouse alone (not "play with") while the caregiver is in another room.
What happens when the bug occurs? Despite being able to go upstairs themselves, the toddler will call the caregiver over from the other room/another floor just to pick the toddler up and put him/her down even though the toddler have already gotten off the seat. Toddlers will NEVER call the caregiver to put them down when they are in the same room.
What do you expect to see? I expect toddlers to get off the regular seat themselves to play without calling their caregiver. It would at least be less annoying if the caregiver picks them up and put them in front of the dollhouse.
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? No

Max movement toddlers keep calling their caregivers from another room/floor while they are sitting to put them down from all kinds of seats in order to go play, despite being able to get off themselves. This forces the caregiver to drop what they're doing and go to the toddler. The most annoying thing about this is the toddler always have already gotten off themselves and could go play without aid.

  • The problem does not occur when the toddler and caregiver are in the same room.
  • Problem occurs in homes with medium height walls.
  • Problem occurs regardless of toddler traits.
