Did you guys like TS2 and TS3 teens, and do you think they'll ever make it to TS4 like the toddler update? Like proper shorter teens replacing the adult teen-flavored sims?

We won't get shorter teens in Sims 4 because of the clothes and the animations. I could see possibly a Teen Stuff Pack to add items and interactions to distinguish them more from the other age groups and make them less like mini-adults. I'd actually like an age filter (like the gender filter) that distinguishes certain outfits for teens only -- it wouldn't affect teens created in CAS by players (or players could turn off the filter when creating YA+ Sims), but it would keep game-generated Sims (especially elders) like dressing like they're High School Musical rejected extras.

Having been shorter than all my nieces, nephews and great-nieces since they hit teenhood, I'm fine with the taller teens; I'd rather see more work to give them more uniqueness. Maybe bring back the Rebellious trait and the ability to do pranks like we had in Generations. Saving accounts where teens can save their own money from part-time jobs or hobbies like painting or programming (I'd love to play a teen hacker in a basement bedroom) would be great as well instead of all the money they earn ending up in household account.
