As near as I can tell, they only like gifts worth more than $200 simoleons. :P
Maybe I should edit all my holidays. I really hate to do that, but.... it's infuriating. I did go looking at my favorite modders' sites for "Less Toddler-like Tantrums from Presents" and didn't see anything like that...
As for this couple, I felt like my options were to wait for the Team to release My Divorce Stories 😉 or to whip out UI Cheats. I chose cheating. 😉
Edit: Seriously, guys, "Hurt" because someone gave you a rose is an overreaction akin to the scene in Addams Family Values where Debbie talks about how her parents gave her Malibu Barbie instead of Ballerina Barbie. 😉
@xochiquetzl_xkvn , I do remember in a very old version of the Sims (Sims 1 or Sims 2), in a console version, I had this one child that hated everything her parents gave her as a gift. The child would break the gift and yell and stomp her feet. Unfortunately there was no option to scold, or "talk about bad behavior" , or send her to her room, etc. I was so happy that with TS4 in the Parenting GP there are options to teach your child not to behave in such a way! 😅
So, your problem with giving gifts in the game, reminds me of that version of the game, except it is adults who are acting like spoiled children ! 🤦♀️😓
I haven't seen The Addams Family Values in years, so I only vaguely remember that... on the other hand, Ballerina Barbie was the only Barbie I liked since all the Barbies of my time period had idiotic expressions on their faces😒, and Ballerina Barbie looked serious and like she had a brain!💗 (and the crown didn't hurt either! 😅) What do I need a Barbie with tan lines for? 😂 My friend had Malibu Barbie and I hated it! 😅 That said, if my parents or anyone had given me a Malibu Barbie instead of a Ballerina Barbie, I would still play with it and know that it was better than no doll at all! 😊

Apparently, that was the cause of her first murder. She asked for Ballerina Barbie and got Malibu Barbie instead, so she burned the house down! LOL!
