High chairs not working

Since the patch today the high chairs have stopped work can’t give toddler food or drink or put them in it is this happening or anyone else
  • I’ve also faced this problem. Actually, the high chairs have not worked since I started playing the game. This has resulted in some of my toddlers starving… I’m currently trying to get my toddlers to take their own food when the parents don’t want to help out.
  • Issue in my game too if you click the highchair itself. The workaround is to click the toddler or refrigenerator instead. Highchairs are basically made of fail anyhow so I mostly just drag food over and let them eat from there. I still tend to keep the stupid chairs around though since I don't know how parent autonomy works without them. I do want them to be able to feed their kids by themselves, especially in families with a lot of sims cuz I myself can sometimes be an unobservant twit.

    High chairs make me want to pull my hair out. Even when I get a parent to put the kid in the chair, I have to pause the game and instruct them to give food or they will just take the kid right back out of the chair.
  • The high chairs are so useless. I just allow my sim's toddlers to just eat anywhere like sit on the floor or something lol
  • I haven't used the high chairs in years. Tried them for a while then never allowed them back.

    Yes, having a spare dining chair in the kitchen (not attached to a table) is great for toddlers to use when they pick up a plate of food.

    Mine were working and just broke with this last patch too. I found a mod that fixes it but I can’t remember who made it. But I added it to my game and now they work fine again. I will try to find it and post it.
  • I've seen these same issues in my game! I haven't been able to clean the high chairs or put the toddlers into them to feed them since the newest update. It always says that the chair is already in use. It's really annoying since I've been doing my own 100 Baby Challenge. I use those chairs a lot for feeding them. I hope this issue gets fixed soon, because the way I've found to work around it is kind of hard to do. I've noticed that the toddlers can still be put in the chair if they are picked up, but they tend to demand to get out of the high chair almost right after being put in it. I have to pause the game at the right time just to be able to hit the option to give them food, which only works if I do it this way. Any other time I try to put food there, the option doesn't pop up and the high chair continues to say that it is already in use.

    So… as I said before, I faced this problem. Today I was playing the Sims 4 again, and this time I tried dragging the food to the floor and directing the toddler to grab a serving. This helped. The toddler was no longer starving.


    Great tip, this does work well, but it would be really nice if the chairs would just be fixed so we could use them :)
