Autonomous toddler care is so frustrating!
(I have all packs - not including kits)
I find the autonomy for caring for toddlers infuriating
My sim might be the only one around to take care of them, and they could have a really low needs bar themself. I'd like them to quickly take care of that first so I don't have them go into motive failure when trying to fix the child's motives. But they will consistently delete my own queued action! To then replace it with autonomous child care.
My toddler isn't going to be able to have a bath, if the parent sim starves to death!
I had one instance a while ago of my parent sim being the only one around, she was desperate for the toilet and the child was crying and screaming he wanted to get out of the high chair. I thought, go pee first, then get him out - he's okay.... She had other ideas... She repeatedly deleted my queued toilet action and replaced it with getting the child out the chair. So, she peed herself. Fantastic.
This autonomy just needs toning down a bit... I know the child is important but compromising the health of the caregivers just because the kid smells and really wants a bath, or doesn't like being confined in the high chair is way too much.
It's also incredibly frustrating when there's more than 1 caregiver and they seem to fight over who can help the toddler first. They will pick up and put down the child repeatedly as they each try to take responsibility! So the care is almost never delivered to the child.
I am usually forced to pause, cheat reset each of them except the 1 I want to care for the child, and queue something to get the others all to go away and leave the child alone for a sec.
