kid living alone?

Man, I'm pretty jealous of that kid.....at his age, I had to share a bedroom in an apartment with my little brother. This kid here is styling with a very nice house, lol.

it would not let me control him. I couldn't command him to do anything. I'm just going to delete him

You could always age him up in household management to a teen or young adult too. That may fix him.

Just add Sims to the house - call a butler or Nanny or just let your Sims take over the house. Then take the whole household into edit and maybe make him a nephew or little brother of one of them. You should be able to move Sims in there with him for free.

In pass Sims games if there was no nanny or butler - Social services comes and gets the kid, ( but if there is a Nanny - the nanny will even stay indefinitely in Sims 2 or 3 -) I have never had this happen in Sims 4.

When I was first playing Pinstar's Legacy Challenge I brought my Superstar over from Sims 3 to become my Founder. Both he and his wife died on the very same day just hours apart. She autonomously came home from work early and died out on the front walkway. This left two Teens and a Child alone. Since there were Teens in the house there was no notice to quit. I am surprised, however, that somehow a Child would be alone. Mostly, they're not equipped to take on managing a house on their own. Who pays the bills? Ask most kids and they aren't even aware there are bills. LOL This has got to be some kind of glitch. Maybe you should attempt to play that household and see what happens?

I’ve had this happen to me. A couple times. I was going through my “ other households” to delete some of my over populated townies and saw him. He was living in the Johnny Zest trailer. I was surprised he was living alone and kept him to check out later. I was playing my wealthy household when I noticed him walking past the house. I just shift clicked on him and added him to my household and had the parents adopt him as his caretaker. The second time I saw it I just moved the child in with another townie household. Both times the child was male and had 20,000 dollars in their household funds. I have mods so I thought it was because of them.
