Are there alarm clocks?

i was expecting my sim child to get up at 7am for school, but he didn't. so i thought 'oh that's a bit annoying, i liked that in sims 3. oh well, i'll just buy an alarm clock'. but i can't find any alarm clocks. normal clocks but none that are alarm clocks

how are adults and children supposed to get up for work/school on time? do you have to physically make them now? that kinda sucks. usually i get them up before 7 anyway but some days if they're tired they slept in. on sims 3 this was
  • Sadly, small objects like alarm clocks and dishwashers weren't included because they didn't add enough to the game for their programming time and EA made a trade-off.
  • The clocks that you can buy don't actually keep time either, whatever time they show is only accurate twice in your busy sim's day.
  • I could've sworn there were alarm clocks in sims 4 because I remember there was an item in the bedroom menu that you could place on a nightstand or dresser (any available surface really) then you could have a sim set up a time the alarm goes off. Whether it was just for the morning or for when someone was going to work or school. And I could've sworn there were fire fighters in this game too.
