BUG: Asking parents to spray monster under bed does nothing.

And is it really necessary for there to be a nightmare/monster under the bed with every single toddler/child every single plumming night? Even with the night lights it happens more often than it should. Not every child is afraid of the dark. Maybe if we got the brave trait back or they fixed those worthless character traits to actually have some immediate impact on the kids (e.g. high emotional control would keep that monster away).

Also, why do children always give a yelp of terror when they wake up?

EtA-Oops, I didn't realize I was in the console forum, (that's while I get for posting before I'm fully caffeinated in the morning!). I play on PC.

It's very annoying.
When it happend the first time, I found it kinda cute and a nice detail, but now it happens almost every night...that just takes the fun out, plus I don't get why the child has to wake up every adult sim in the house, it's stupid.

Also I DO switch to one parent and let them spray the monster, but often the child doesn't follow the parent back into the bedroom and therefore does not see the monster being sprayed...so I have to first manually make the parent and the child go into the bedroom (and hope they stay there, the child sometimes wanders of to eat/watch tv and other stuff very quickly after waking up the parents), then spray the monster and than put everybody back to sleep......all of that is just annoying especially if you have to do it almost every night...

the nightlights don't seem to make it much better and I really don't want a child to sleep in a big bed...
I have notices though, there is one child bed that says something along the lines of "no monsters under this bed" in the description, I only resently saw that and gave it to one child, for now there were no monsters, so I hope it really works.
But I don't want to give every child the same bed, especially since it's not a good one.

Let's add to your bug, correction the Bug, The latest News :D now The Butler and all Nannies will go to any half bed even if the bed belongs to the Butler. with no kids in the home. they stay in the room all day talking to the monster and spraying. Done as a group effort lol. So, I just removed all half beds. Report it? best not to. If they work on the bug, next we may see the Butler and Nannies sitting on the floor eating the monsters under the bed. :D

There is a special base game wall light you can place that also stops the monster showing up completely. Coolala, the Defender Wall Light priced at $60

I know, I got that one (actually two, one for each child), but the option to spray the monster/ask to spray the monster still comes up.

I do not think the parent listens to spray the bug monster when the child asks, But I think if the child asked to be put to bed the option comes up and at the time the parents will spray the bugs. new parenthood night lights work perfectly for me. but could be because I no longer have kids in my game lol.?

I'm closing this out as the thread's been brought back to life a couple of times now and we do ask that bugs get posted over on AHQ. You can learn a bit more about that over at https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/944811/update-on-the-sims-4-help-center#latest
