random genetics not letting me choose age of siblings / son/daughter

Whenever i try and make my sim a sibling / child in random gent\etics in CAS , it only pops up as the same age as sibling 1 / parent . Like if i have a teen sim and i want to give them a younger sibling , it wont let me . Anyone know how to fix ?

BTW it works perfectly if i have a toddler/child/teen choose the age of their parent .

    If you use cc or mods and use the columns mod where you can add more columns in CAS, go into your mods file and find that package folder (just type columns in your search and it should pop up) and delete it. Redownload it, the columns mod has since been updated since the infants update and it was the reason my CAS was doing the same thing yours is.

    @avieerkul1   Hi!  I just tested this in my game.  I have a teen sim and using genetics, the game defaults to the same age (teen) but I do have the options to select Child or younger.  The options to select Young Adult or older are greyed out because his parents are YA and "child" sims cannot be the same age or older than their parents.

    If you mean that you don't have these options, please provide a screen grab like this.  It will help to figure out what's happening in your game.

    EDIT: To be sure, I just tried creating a "child" sim using the parents genetics and still had the options to set the age from infant through teen.
