Have you got the drop down menu after 'Autoage (Played Sims)' to 'Active Households Only'? And then the check box after 'Autoage (Unplayed Sims)' is unchecked? If so, then the game runs as normal but they don't lose days off their age. They still look young and ageless no matter how long you leave them. It's like turning off aging in Sims 3, but for all the story progression. Was their any changes to their relationships or wealth at all?
See above. Autoage was set to Active Households Only.

Wait...so you're saying they still age? I have been playing 4 families, well, until one of them disappeared. Now I'm playing 3 families, but I haven't really paid much attention to their ages. That would ruin my game if they are actually aging without my consent.
No. If Autoage is set to Active Households Only, it appears that time does, indeed, pass (the unplayed Sims are not frozen), but they (probably) do not age if you return around the same time of day you left. My Sims aged 1 day, but the played Sim aged 3 days. However, I returned to the house in the wee hours of the morning instead of at night, so I'm thinking that's what caused the one day aging. I need to test this more.
I should note that my Sims were not at home when I returned to them (I left them at home). The adults had gone out to a venue.
