Neighborhood Stories OFF button

Where is it?? I play on rotation and I really do not want these neighborhood stories killing my game. I know it is minimal now but they are making plans to make it more complex and I don't want it. I hated it in Sims 3 and I do not want it in my game now.

    I get at least two every Sim day and the majority are from my active Sim to another active Sim and are really "life changing", Such as job changes and relationship changes. As I said in a previous post, I had a pair of brothers living in a household with their different GF. Caleb was dating and total romance bar for Michelle, while Jamie was dating and total romance bar for Gwen. Then they brought in the Neighborhood Stories change and things went haywire! Caleb suddenly, without my permission, started trying to get Gwen to get in the hot tub r woohoo or try to make a baby. I caught them several times and had to reset the game since it was causing problems with the other half of the couples. Then, without warning, Michelle suddenly married Caleb and was pregnant. I had no clue what was happening as I was working with Jamie talking to Gwen. But suddenly a message came up that my other couple in the active house were exchanging vows! Then suddenly she was two sizes too big, pregnant, and expecting a child! I couldn't believe it. I wanted them as a couple, but had wanted to plana nd play out the wedding and such. Sims 4 just did this without my knowledge or permission. It never happened in the four yeas I've been playing until after Neighborhood stories came in and started controlling my active Sims! I added MCCC just to be able to stop these and reset them BECAUSE of this patch. Before, no Mods.

    (The above message is from my mother who plays).
  • The only thing I hate is that my sims (who are a couple) call each other asking the other if they should ask some random npc out... wtf? and that married sims also call asking if they can have a date with randoms .. sorry? at least if the code was logical it would be fine, but how is the boyfriend going to call the girlfriend asking her if she can have a date with a random person?????? e.e
