Yes. The monster under the bed is the. absolute. worst. feature. ever.
I just don't know why it has to appear soooo much. If it happened to only some sim kids some of the time, I could live with it, but I can't play this game without the defendr light. Which is why I have to turn off the grid off sometimes for my sanity when I play with kids.
Which reminds me, I thought Luth said that modders might have enabled some other objects to act as defendrs. I need to go check that.
ETA: getting up to kiss or hug when they start a convo during dinner. Just talk. No need to kiss every time you start talking about the weather.
