Is The Sims too childish now? Teen & Adult players have been forgotten

I started playing when I was 12 haha, so that's a ways before the teen rating. I think it really should be for everyone, too, since it only gets scandalous if you want it to. In fact, it is a really good game for kids younger than their teen years for educational purposes: like pay your bills or the lights don't work haha. Me, on the other hand, quickly discovered, despite my age, that more can be done with the game. Thankfully, my parents somehow never really snooped in to see what I was doing with it though ?
