I mean, I love the seasons element, I just wish it was more 'balanced'. I've seen the option to turn off thunderstorms or be able to alter the weather, but as much as my Sims family are a fantasy world, I do try to allow fate to dictate a lot of things.

I actually had a child taken away from me, because he refused to eat during a thunderstorm and after some many days in a row, his hunger was enough to have him removed from the family. He wouldn't sit in the high chair or even eat off the floor: he just kept displaying an icon that said "run inside", although we were inside. I even tried building a basement and trying to feed him in the center to no avail :(

Has anyone had a Sim that isn't afraid of t-storms? I'm on Gen 4 of this family and every male or female have had that trait... :|

If they have the 'outdoor lover' trait, thunderstorms won't bother them. I've never used the 'stormchaser' reward trait, but I assume it does the same thing.

Try taking the high chair away and letting the toddler serve himself from a group meal. I haven't had any issues with the 'run inside' bug when I do that. (They fixed the bug, but it came back.) I do have a problem with 'read to sleep' during a thunderstorm - the only thing that works is to cancel the action altogether (for both the parent and child) and let the toddler put herself to bed.

The thunderstorms are a bit over-the-top - I live in a place where it's not unusual to have them every day for a week or so, but never all day long.
