Has anyone's sim ever outlived their children?

This happens frequently in the 100 baby challenge. The mom is constantly pregnant and so not aging, and she outlives many of her children.

is the aging turned off or is she drinking youth potion. Or is the life time long?

Only one I played that ever got the trait died the day 2 of his kids became elders

It's because pregnant sims don't age and as she's having so many babies she hardly ages!

I always have aging off, so nope. I'd rather they age when I tell them to. It goes by too quick otherwise.

I wanna turn the aging off to enjoy the current generation but the mum won't die so I can't turn it off til she's still alive.

Or has the parent been elder when the kid turns elder aswell?

I had a bodybuilder sim and it's only 13 days til her kid turns elder aswell. I cannot wait til the sim dies!!!

I haven't played the Goths in my current save but I noticed both Cassandra and Bella were both elders at one point, saw them out in the neighborhoods. I hadn't touched the Goths at all but Bella lived a super long time, way outlived Mortimer (stopped seeing him around ages ago). I saw her and Cass out as elders a few times, then stopped seeing her around so checked in and she had died, but Alex was an elder too (or he had become one very soon after Bella died).

In my save on of my adult Sims young adult sons recently died in a fire. That was the first time I've had a child die before their parent I think.

I had a sim who completed the Bodybuilder Aspiration and he actually outlived his grandkids... I seriously thought he was never going to die. But it's possible that was a bug, since I haven't seen the issue since.

omg no!

My angel (avatar) Aziraphale is forever young adult. Both his children, his wife and grandchildren have grown older than him along the way, and a lot of wives have died. I have had him since the early Sims 1 days, and he is still going strong: LOL.
