Parenthood Journal be updated so people can sit and "read" them instead of needing table?

Actually, that would be a pretty nice change. Outside of school, it's seldom that I see teens or children sitting at a table to do anything. They usually choose a rug, a bed, or a comfy chair.

After twenty years, the Sims are still so stiff and confined. To my knowledge, if the seats are occupied, they still can't sit on the floor to play a video game, watch television, or hold a conversation (a mod for TS2 was able to accomplish this, though). They don't throw a leg over the arm of the chair when speaking on the phone or reading a book.

In TS4, it's worse than ever. Female Sims don't so much as cross their legs anymore.

It's those little details that I would love to see in the next game. TS5: the Sims finally loosen up!

@Cynna I'm only asking because teens+ can "read" the CC journal sitting down as seen in the images (the CC journal)

but when you try to do that with the Parenthood journal-it tells you it needs table. That kind of went aganist Molly's storyline (she's on a stool because she's a sort of Cinderella)

Cynna, at least they can sit on the edge of beds now, that makes it loads more natural.

Unfortunately, CC for TS4 is almost always an improvement on the original.

Example: Seasons sprinkle won't work inside. However, a mod creator made the sprinkler not only work inside, it's can be dragged live as well.

The simplest things, EA seems to miss entirely.

Yes, there is that...

By the way, thank you for many, many years of mod creations. They were all wonderful and I still use them to this day. <3
