I wouldn't mind more stuff for them to do but tbh I really would like them to pay some attention to teens and elders. If there was to be an expansion I'd prefer it to be a Generations type of one which takes all life-stages into consideration.
Teens lack identity for me in TS4, they just feel like watered down young adults who have to go to school. Yes, they are improved with Parenthood and still have the character values, but at this point they are basically all maxed out anyways unless you deliberately "sabotage" them (like I did lol, I don't want everyone to be responsible and good-mannered). Phases were a good idea but seems like they basically do nothing (except giving them random moodlets in true TS4 fashion) unless I directly command them to. Like "Rebellious" phase, I never felt like my teen was any more rebellious than before, still autonomously doing homework, even extra credit, and hugging their parents left and right. I do appreciate though that, unlike elders, they actually have some unique interactions (even though some of them just pretend to be while actually just being the same ol' animations with different text flavor) but I'd like more teen-specific activities to add some uniqueness.
Elders too could do with a bit more love. Now it's like the only thing making them stand out is that they look old, have new idle animations and can get the "dangerously tired" moodlet or whatever it's called. It could be cool if they could gain/purchase unique traits or something depending on how they have lived their life. Maybe they could be "hired" to babysit their grandchildren (happens all the time IRL) though I guess that wouldn't be unique to elders since younger life stages can have grandchildren too. Maybe add some elder-specific interactions too.
