@LunaCpup12 I play with aging off. So... all sims in my game only age up when I age them up.
Please try this...
Open your game save. In the top right corner click the three dots ('Options Menu'). Select 'Gameplay', then set Auto Age (played sim) to 'No'. Personally, I also set then set Auto Age (unplayed sim) to 'No'. This way households that I'm playing and households I'm not playing only age up when I have them active and I decide to age them up. (So while you were off playing household 'A', you don't return to household 'B' and find all the kids are adults or worse yet have already died of old age.

I’m having this exact problem! What’s a game save?

  @MiniStonedKitty this is quite an old thread so I'll quickly reply before it's locked. I've attached images to hopefully show you where you need to look (I'm on Xbox). Your game save is the current game you are playing. If you open up your Menu and select Game Options then follow these steps in the images attached and then select Apply Changes then that should do the trick.

  @MiniStonedKitty A 'game save' is just referring to a saved version of your game. If you've saved more than one 'game save' you will have more than one. When you open your game you will see the 'Load Game' option...
  After clicking 'Load Game' (above) if you have more than one 'game save', you will see a list of the games that you have saved, with the most recently played and saved at the top:
