I want EA and the Sims 4 to Stop

I am very disappointed with these changes as well. I want to play my sims and their families and enjoy it. I have enjoyed playing up until now. Sims shouldn't be so drawn to an object that they cancel the actions you give them to do. I find it very frustrating, but tried to work around it. Now it is getting even worse. This phone obsession will make playing this game frustrating for me, not enjoyable. I won't be able to tell my stories with everyone running around staring at their phones. Is that supposed to be fun? I haven't played because of the bugs, but was actually thinking of trying in case it isn't as bad as I have heard from people on the forum. But I feel like some of the features introduced take away from our control when playing the sims.
