This child aged up badly

I have had some sims that started out looking good as children and then when they entered their teenage years ... well,  it isn't pretty... this one happened yesterday and she was a good child but didn't deserve to turn out looking like Curly of the Three Stooges.  Luckily I put her on a good exercise program and diet and got her better CC hair and makeup and now she is looking presentable.  Not like she belongs in Slingblade.  yep.

    Out of my sims five kids Corey was the only one that aged up to a teen with a bigger body type, he was always on the swings and playing on the jungle gyms and on the hanging bars as a child but he did love his ice-cream when he was a child and ate loads of it 😄 His merman body type is totally different from his normal body and when he works out on the weights and the treadmill his normal body doesn't get slimmer or gain muscle but his merform gets all the muscles, it's like the game chose his merform to be the one that got all the family genetics as its more or less the same as his parents body types and chose a random body for his normal form 😂

    Eating and activity levels as a child can also be a factor. I've noticed children who complete the Rambunctious Scamp aspiration tend to age up to be muscular even if their parents aren't.

  • There's always one in the family that ages up into a completely different and wth version of their child self. It's the newly acquired body shapes that get me, I don't know how the game works that out when you take into account their parents body types 😂 even worse when their occult body with genetically inherited looks (example merfolk) is a much better version than their normal everyday sim body 🤷

  • Just in case anybody wondered how my sim turned out after I updated her.  Not sure why she is facing AWAY from the tennis net.  AI must not know much about playing sports.

     

  • I'm currently playing the Apocalypse Challenge, where you aren't allowed to change their randomized outfits (until that's unlocked). Thankfully, you're also not allowed to have accessories or make up, so you don't have goofy socks, eyeball rings and alien make up making a bad situation works. Still, some of the outfits are out there. 

    The orange top with the bright university shorts is a look.
