Sims sitting on the floor

It's called Hanging out in the sims games and sims sit on the ground to talk and hang out. They have been doing this since Sims 2 University.

I've heard that sitting on the ground is healthier than sitting in a chair.

I don't think I have the EP that lets them sit on the floor, but they aren't that good at finding the seats I've put out for them. The couch closest to the bookcase, will they use it while reading? No! Lets sit at the dinner table that's further away! Or ALL guests standing by the fridge and eating instead of going to the backyard where I have plenty of tables and chairs.

Depends on what part of your body you're having problems with, and what kind of problems.
(I love sitting on the floor and have done so all my life, but as of this year my knees have been acting up and maybe I have to learn to sit in a new way)

I haven't played that much in Sulani, true enough, but the devs derived this 'ritual' from somewhere, plus may have added their own twist to it, but it may be one drinks kava while on the floor. Think of the Japanese Tea Ceremony. The 'chairs' they sit on are very low, so that they may as well be sitting on the floor. This could be something similar. Or, it could be a bug. Oh, but should my game be stricken with such a bug, especially during a wedding ceremony! To have my Sims sit then, would be an absolute blessing.

If the 'ritual' is really a thing in Sulani, that would be so awesome!
