I'd like pre-teens too, but the teens in those pictures still look to have already reached the teen stage. They just look closer to 15-16 range, while the existing teens look 18. Honestly, I think the current children in the games look closer to pre-teens since they look to be around 10-11. (Its another reason why I think there should also be a stage in-between toddler and children).

Sadly, I doubt they'll do pre-teens at this point when there's still so much missing from the existing life stages. Only young adults and adults are truly fleshed out. Everyone else has barely anything unique to them, so I feel like if the team does anything to improve the life stages (and there's already a low change of even that happening), they'll just update those instead of adding any new ones. At this point I think all we can do is hope they do things to differentiate all of the life stages so they truly feel different.

I personally feel most of the wanted interactions for preteens can fit between kids and teens instead, teens just need to be shorter so it's not a jump from kid to adult sized sim whos just slightly skinnier.

Making the teens smaller would require remaking everything for them they would have to have clothing all new animations made so we might as well get preteens which many want. You would have the players who like the size of the teens now mad but preteens would fill in the gap add in a all new life stage to draw in more players and you lose nothing.

I really dont understand why people want this. Preteens would be a waste of resources. Everything pre-teens do, teens can already do. There's literally nothing exclusive to them. Pre-teen is ages 10-12 and they are basically considered older kids/early teens. It's just an unecessary addition.

I get it some players think preteens are a waste of resources I feel the same about witches mermaids and many other features people want but you forget its not a "waste of resources" for everyone just you as its not something you want. I have wanted preteens since before release of the Sims 4 and dont feel teens or children can even come close to filling the gap nor giving the features to either of these life stages would make me happy as it would just look wrong.

I didn’t say it had to be in the the Sims 4 it just how I imagined the preteens will be in the Sims.

I did try to make the Sims look smaller than it the picture but I want able to by much. ?

I did mention in my description what the differences would be from teens and kids would be to preteens and why I think it’s needed.

I believe the preteen ages are 11 to 13 when kid generals start puberty. And the beginning stages are very different and drastic to the rest of your teen life puberty is a major stage in your life it needs to be highlighted in someway.
