Family members can't be in the same bathroom

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Svenska
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? -----------
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Parenting, Pets etc
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a family, let one of the members be in the shower/bath or on the loo, let another one walk in to use something in the same bathroom.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sometimes they both get uncomfortable, sometimes just one of them. I had a dad walk in to pee when his child was taking a bath and the dad got really uncomfortable, but not the child.
What do you expect to see? Family members not to be uncomfortable using the bathroom together! That's super weird! I want to have one bathroom per 2 or 3 members but when it's like this I gotta have a whole lot more bathrooms.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

Okay you're probably gonna tell me this is "intended" but seriously, a parent and a child - maybe not a teenager because teenagers can revolt - should be comfortable using the bathroom together, it's the only logical thing.

    TBH, I always assumed that the endless barging into each other in the bathroom and then looking all shocked and embarrassed was intentional in the coding, for humor purposes. (Apparently it doesn't play as such to a non-US audience, though!)

    (For the record, I kind of wish they would cut it out, but the delayed overreaction strikes me as intended humor.)

    I actually am from the US. Lol just considering females always seem to go to the bathroom in groups you would think especially in the case of twins there wouldn't be an issue. Plus it being a game where you can't constantly control where they go that they wouldn't get so uncomfortable and take so long to decide how to react. If I walked in on someone I'd just say oh sorry and backout closing the door. Then go right to another bathroom. I wouldn't be embarrassed and lose all sense of reason and direction.

    @SirGelanThat’s a good idea that sims can say ‘sorry’ if they find someone in the bathroom. It would be realistic! 😃
