    yeah, the same thing has happened to me before in which a family member has died and my toddler gets taken away since, but other times like once both parents died (drowning oops my bad) and the child got to stay with the teenager? it may depend of the living and relationship status. even though his/her/their dad is alive if he doesnt live in the house then i guess there isnt enough time to move him in and have the child stay. as i know of there are no options to 'move in with father/move in with mother' if something happens you have to do it manually but it would be a good idea.
  • @OhRhiannon tbh i was chocked when Aaron (the gone child) had been taken away by the child services at the same time the grim reaper finished with the mother. i didn’t get the chance to beg him for her life and suddenly bof. the game was over and i had to select one of the households that iam playing. i thought i was going to get him back so i didn’t act immediately and then i realized i missed the chance when iam having one save file and i saved already so a lesson in life. so frustrating /:

    @xXGamingKiddoXx, Yes, it would be better if they gave your child Sim the chance to live with a parent that isn't in the household, or a grandparent, aunt/uncle, or even a family friend! ❤️  Do you have an old save you can go back to?🤔 Hopefully you do!  

    By the way, Sims can also plead with the Grim Reaper to spare the life of dying Sim.  It doesn't always work, but it can't hurt to try! 😇 

    Your Sim child would have remained in the house if there had been another teen or older Sim living there. Also, dogs or cats will also be removed by Animal Control if there aren't' any teens or older living on the lot.  

    About the Mod, I don't know for certain if a mod like that exists, but I think it might since there are a lot of people who have been upset when their adult Sims died and the children were taken away, especially since their neighbors couldn't adopt the child afterward!.😮  My guess is that if a Mod like that is out there, then it would probably let the newly orphaned child into the adoption pool.

    But we are not allowed to give links to sites that have Mods.  Mods and CC  require a lot of work to prevent them from messing up your game.  You might get some CC hair styles in your game and then find that your Sim cant use the shower, or some crazy thing like that! 😃  And please note that every time EA updates the game with a patch, any of your CC or Mods can then become broken and cause problems.😢  The people who make the mods/CC have to update them to work with the new patch, and then you have to find the new mods/CC update and make sure you have it.  And if your game messes up because of outdated Mods or CC, then you will have to go through all your Mods/CC to find out what is causing the problem! 😞  

    You also might want to get your Sims Death Flowers.  You can find them in the game and then grow them. If your child had presented the Grim Reaper with a Death Flower, the Grim would have accepted it and spared the mother!   Here is a link from Carl's Sims 4 Guide explaining them: https://www.carls-sims-4-guide.com/death/

    Here is their link on gardening: https://www.carls-sims-4-guide.com/skills/gardening/

    I really hope you can get an older save back! 🤞 

    Best of luck and Happy Simming! 🥳
