Cannot make sims parents even in full edit mode

I have a save file in my game. I made a bunch of familes and have been able to swap sims to make my sims the child of or brother of another family. Reccently I have not been able to do that which is super annoying. I was able to make a mother for triplets sims I had but not their father. The option isn't even shwoing up it's either sister/brother or fiance. I have tried making the parent sims elder for my YA sims but that's not working either, I put on full edit mode for cas as well, and I have tried the cheat with the sims id numbers and that didn't work either. I am super annoyed and irritated that this was working the other day and now it is not

Also to note that when this was working before, these were all pre-exsisting households that I either added onto or swapped other premade sims into the households where I wanted to label the relationships as son/daughter, mother/father.

  • @CBWriter22 Check your family tree if they already have a greyed out parent. If that's the case, you can't make another.
  • They do not. I have checked multiple times. Now it's doing this weried thing where the family I have saved doesn't have relationships at all and I can only set one of the older sims as the parents. 

  • I have tried to reupload both sets of the family to the gallery and nothing is working. I've also tried repairing my game and that did nothing as well. I don't know what to do at all, I'm annoyed that this is even an issue and I know I'm not the only person whoes had this happen in their game.

  • They are still on the gallery under The Vallamin's and The Vallamin-Grayham's

    @CBWriter22 Could you let me know exactly which relationships you want to set for whom ? You can send me a DM if you don't want to make it public.

    From your descriptions I gather you want to make the two households related ?

    @CBWriter22 Seems there are parents in the family tree. Just not visible from the parents themselves only from the children's view.

    Sent you a PM with a pic.
