How to Allow Friends and Family to Use Life's Necessities When Visiting?

Hi there so a simple question here. I have a large family household that I have split into two. I've moved out the teenagers into a separate house and now they're coming to hang out with the parents...

    And "Always Welcome" reward trait is how one does that. It's inexpensive for a reason.

@theopisisters Working as intended - that is, it is coded that way on purpose, and the in-game solution is the Always Welcome rewards trait.

I read that as the "mechanical" end of a process by which my sims are negotiating "how can I help without being in the way?" and it is one of the first traits I purchase for my Sims.

Otherwise, it is simply the game as written that some needs are best addressed at one's own home, and that guests ARE guests, and not at home when visiting.

@SindocatI never said that it was a bug. I said that it is not done right. Yes we don't want strangers to come in and use your bed and showers. Guests are guests no one is arguing that.

But there should be an option to stay over long term etc. You have to be able to see both perspectives. My Sims visit their parents house alot, their siblings come visit each other. And in this case - it's annoying.
