Re: [MOD RELATED] sims keep picking up/putting down infants over and over?

@shatterhex Wow, that stinks! I'm too much of a micromanager... I haven't even taken them anywhere in the pack, but leaving them at a park would be disturbing, to say the least!

I did have an annoying and disturbing number of times that the parents, grandparents or aunts/uncles (I have all on the lot) and the butler took the infant into the yard in the fall/autumn in weather registering as 'cold', and set the infant on the ground only to stand there or leave... or sometimes change the infant into winter clothing... until the infant was filthy and extremely low on hygiene. One time I had 3 adults standing there with two filthy infants on the ground. I think what finally kicked in the need for someone to tend to them was for the hunger to get low enough, or for energy to get low enough to kick in the desire to put them in a crib. I was quite perplexed that the hygiene level didn't alarm them into action earlier than that (and that they took the infant into the cold and put them on the ground).

Baby in any red should bring action, imho, if no one is currently interacting with them. I had several interactions with the now hygiene that were the butler decided to act... and he changed the outfit (which very slightly raised the super low hygiene). Diaper change and bath at this hygiene level should have occurred to parent/grandparent/butler.... all of them. That said, I had tons of times that the butler and parents/grandparents reacted autonomously and very appropriately, just not always... and why this was the case left me scratching my head and/or very annoyed at times. (It was killing me to wait to see what it took to get an auto-action for the babies in the pic here!)

I don't play with Mods/CC, have all packs, and these are long-time played Sims with tons of skill, parenting, and no weird traits.
