Why can't we change height?

Beecause the animations between sims or a sim and an object wouldn't fit right.
It' also the reason why teenagers have the same height as adults.

because emotions

its Hard for the Animators .

probably cuz tall people cant enter in doors , and its become weird to enter the telescope and or cooking , or just sit in the chair next to table , or even kiss a tall woman with a short guy :)

If you could change their heights, you would end up with some short guy kissing your sims plums..lol
There is no way they could animate for all heights.

lol you just reminded me of what I did in TS3. I used height slider mod and whenever my female sim kissed her boyfriend, it looked like he was kissing her boobs.

Op has 5 threads on the first page. Chatty?

Haha well, I'm not going to go there and ask you what you were playing. *runs off

It would be costly.

Get a height slider, expect some trade off in the quality of animations. Wouldn't be surprised if they did it for the next one (if there is a next one). Every one since 2 seems to add something superficial and gimmicky at the expense of something fundamental.
