Actual Ages
Okay so in the Sims it seems that when their growing up they skip the little bits in between like actually learning things kids have ages like 4 5 6 7 8 9 I would really like this what are your thoughts?
Forum Discussion
- I've always wanted that in my game
- Im glad im not the only one! :D
- @Nighthero I like you idea man but with that they should add toddlers to the mix too since you skip 0-5 years
To add to @charcoug idea to make this work they would have to add some sort of calendar with weeks and months to make things work properly unless they say one sim year would be 28 sim days so just in case they do have the seasons they can make each season 1 week long. "Nighthero;13542562" wrote:

Real-world definitions of Young Adult are usually 18-39 or 40, adult 40-65, elder 65+.
Yours truly,
a person rather shocked to find that someone would consider her as an "elder""WolfEyes;13544913" wrote:

By age 30 I didn't consider myself to be a young adult. Many children among several southern tribes considered me to be an elder at age 40.
Cultural differences. :)
There is that! The game's visual differences, though, certainly suggest that the developers were looking at the same kinds of lifestage age ranges that are used in sociological research, demographic studies, and the like.- a toddler is considered a toddler between the ages of 1 to3 years. i took a lot of child development classes and thats what the book said.
