Okay, so I can confirm that ghost children can be taken away just the same as living children, which is bizarre.
The more we know, though.
@Kompletionist92, that is an excellent question! 🤨 I've never had a ghost child in TS4. But according to Carl's Sims 4 Guide, if a living child stays home from school their grades will decay until they drop to an "F", and then they get an Embarassed moodlet for a at least as long as they are a child (assuming they don't raise their grade by going to school again!). When they become a teen, their grades reset at a "C".
So it doesn't look like the Social Worker will take children away for skipping school. 😉 That must be reserved for if you neglect the child's needs! 😮 But if you neglect a ghost child's "needs", then I would assume they could possibly be taken away, but I couldn't find any information on it😕 . If I find out anything , I'll let you know! 😉
Thanks for the reply. 🙂
I think I will intentionally neglect him and have him skip school, just to see what happens. Y'know, for science!
@Kompletionist92, 😃 yes, I also love to experiment with the Sims.! 🤓 But I hate when the Social Worker takes away Sim children 😢, so I avoid it. But please reply back with your findings... I'm curious but I don't have any ghost children to try it out with right now! 😉
I will certainly post my results here for anyone else curious. I'm going to do it on a seperate save so that I don't lose Casper permanently.

Good to know. Thank you for this information. I have one family of ghosts on the gallery just for fun.
They certainly are a challenge to style in CAS. And they can never be aged up in game. A perpetual school age child would not be much fun LOL
