I really don't mind that the babies are stuck to the crib. It makes it easier to find them when they are crying. In my experience with the sims 3, my sims would sometimes leave the baby out in the snow and I wouldn't be able to find it until the little freezing thought bubble would go above the mound of snow that was the baby. I also find that babysitters and other visiting sims would often take the babies out of the crib and leave them on the floor. So babies being objects doesn't bother me at all.

I wish people would stop using fallacies like this to find exuses for bad game decisions.

1. No your own sims wouldn't, unless maybe you forgot to place a crib. But, yeah.
2. I raised 60+ babies in that game and had lots of snow, and never did the parents feel the urge to go outside and put nooboo down for no reason. Why on earth would they?
3. You can find a baby in Sims 3, crying or not crying, in a split second because like with every sim you can double click on their icon. Them not being objects and all?

It is possible you had some mod that triggered this, but everything you describe is completely unrecognizable for me. You can witness the actual mechanism the game has in the link I included. That's how sims in TS3 treat their babies. It's compulsive for them to put the kid in their crib. It's the first thing they do when they wake up even.

They. Can. Pull. This. Off. Properly. Because they did it in the past.

To me, it just doesn’t seem intentional that they made babies the way they did. It comes across as very rushed and almost as if it were a last resort. Which comes at no surprise, given the history of The Sims 4’s development.

Really, all of the life stages were in some regard compromised at development, and still are today. The game really only shipped with two real life stages, kids and young adults. Teens are just younger adults, toddlers were MIA, babies are objects, and adults/elders showed little to no variation from young adults.

In a life simulator, I’d hope to see a lot of variation between the stages of life..

I think they said the reason . Was because they did not like how babies were in three . They wan to add more things that you can do with them.Which sadly they had to makethem objects.

Like what?
