Kid is sick - parent has no new options.
I am annoyed that parents don't even acknowledge their child's sickness in this game. This game finds new ways to disappoint me every time I try to play.

Orange juice helps cure sicknesses and so do teas. There is also a special detox tea unlocked with high wellness.
The sickness system in Sims 3 and 4 are both complete jokes.
You're correct on that for sure. In Sims 2 sickness was still not acknowledged by family members, but at least you still had to be concerned about it. I liked how if you left it untreated and didn't let the Sim get any rest they could eventually die from it. It was a scary thing to have your whole family get sick while in the early days of a legacy challenge or an Apocalypse challenge. I really miss that aspect. In Sims 3 & 4 sickness is really nothing more than negative moodlets that go away on their own eventually if you ignore it. Just another example of how they completely eliminated almost every shred of difficulty after Sims 2.
Yep.. And as morbid as it sounds, I miss pregnant ladies not being invincible superheroes who can't die. They were hard to take care of in Sims 2 but worth it.
Thanks to modern medicine, people never seem to realize that complications with pregnancy are very common and people do die while pregnant.
Why did they ever take that feature out? Sure we can have our toddlers starved until they're taken away and we can drown our little kids in the pool but pregnant sims can't die?
I just miss the challenge of sims 2... Sims rarely got sick in Sims 3 and if they did it wasn't severe and couldn't kill. At least they threw up though. Sims in 4 RARELY throw up, although it could.be me. I assumed they took throwing up out at launch for the longest time because I rarely ever see it. I've tried squeamish Sims, pregnant sims, eating stale food etc and sims rarely throw up.
