The idea of creating a teen vampire sounds really tempting, especially if they don’t age up unless you do that manually. But I find one problem with it: going to school.If I want to play with a teen vampire, who never becomes adult, will s/he have to go to school forever? That sounds really boring, especially since I’d like to have my vampires up at night rather than during the day, which doesn't really work if you have to go to school in the morning. Do you know any way around this that doesn’t affect the kid negatively? Without mods would be nice, because I’m not used to mods.

There is a mod that allows you to drop out of school ("drop out of high school and get a real job") but I haven't played with that mod (so I don't know if it's working).

I have a teen vamp in my household and she is already up to Master, and she has one tier of the sun resistance so far. As far as I know there's no way out of them having to go to school without mods, but you could also choose to just let them stay home and accept the failing grade. My teen vampire rarely goes to school, she's had an F forever, lol. If you want your teen vamp to stay a teen you could disable aging for the active household, or buy youth potions every time they start approaching young adult. I play with really long lifespans though so I have plenty of time to build up aspiration points to buy the potions. For people using MC Command Center, you can also flag the teen to not age if you still want the rest of the household to age. I'd be interested in a working drop out of school mod, but I haven't found one that's been updated.

Suppose you can have parent make a sun resistance potion at the bar and have it on cooling in fridge for them, but that would also require work plus remembering giving it to them before they'red out the door i guess.

@taydev I played with a teen vampire shortly (just aged her to young adult). First she lived in a house in Forgotten Hollow, and she was completely fine going to school. Yes, she felt uncomfortable as soon as she walked out the door, but I don't think she was even close to death. Also, when she got home, I had to keep an eye on her and make her go inside immediately. Unless you teen has the thin skinned weakness, going out for short while like for travelling to school and back should't kill them. And also, as someone mentioned, you could use the sun resistance potion or give them the sun resistance power.

But what I actually did, was move my vampires into San Myshuno into a penthouse. There my vampires never have to go outside to travel anywhere (except possibly at the other end).

Well, I see a teen vampire aging, so the answer is:
Teen vampires age until they are young adults. Then they stop aging.

@StarlingGray @DKguruArtist and @kati77 thanks for your help! I do plan to keep her as a teen for a long while, so I've disabled ageing for the time being, and she has the genius trait so I want her to go to school and do well. She currently lives in Forgotten Hollow and hates it because she thinks it's too gloomy and would rather be normal and live among mortals. When she ages up, she'll then move to San Myshuno.

Anyway, I didn't know there was a sun resistant cream! How did I even miss that? :P Thanks guys!

My teen is not becoming a vampire, I have gone back to Vlad and " ask to turn" 4 times, No transformation, no " uncomfortable" moodlet. and every time I click on Vlad " ask to turn" is still there. I also cannot find any place to access the vampire power points.

I have the " Vampire Secrets" option on the computer, but so far no transformation. I have looked online, and cannot fiund any information for which of the icons on the lower left will display the Vampire Power points screen.
