Child being taken away for no reason??

I was playing a legacy challenge and while the child was talking to his parents and doing homework, he was being taken away for neglect suddenly. I was looking on other threads but nothing resonated with my play. My child was being taken care of, has good skills, he is a B grader in school since he started a week and a bit earlier, speaks with his parents so what is the problem?

  • @StoianDenisa Do you play with, now or recently, Mods or CC? If so, please save a copy of your game to your desktop (as a backup to revert to or for reference), then test without the Mods folder in the game to see if the issue occurs then. Directions as follows:

    Saving a game backup:

    Spoiler
    Go to:
    Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4
    Copy the following folders:
    Saves, Tray, Mods, Screenshots, Recorded Video
    Paste the folders:
    Paste the folders locally on your computer, on an external drive, &/or a flash drive. I recommend choosing two or all three of these locations.)

    Alternatively, you could just save the whole 'The Sims 4' folder.

    Testing without the Mods folder and relevant cache file:

    Spoiler
    Exit the game. Move the Mods folder from your "The Sims 4" folder [Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4] to your desktop (save it for reference) and delete the localthumbcache.package file in your “The Sims 4” folder. See if the issue is gone. If the issue is gone, one or more of your Mods/CC may be causing the issue. First check for updated versions of your Mods/CC. If the issue returns with all updated versions, you can then test without saving in order to identify which CC/Mods are causing the issue.
