Sim Children won't change outfit

My adult sims automatically change their clothes based on the weather, but the children sims not only don't change automatically for cold weather, but when I change them manually, they change back to their everyday outfit! It's a long walk from their home to exit the lot for school, and every day I get a "freezing to death" warning for every child because they won't change into their winter clothes and won't STAY in their winter clothes after *I* change them!

I'm playing on a Mac, have no mods, have all the packs, kits, etc.

    @dreamwrthy Ugg... that's frustrating, and a bit scary. I don't know if you have any CC, in which case I you could test by removing them to see if it makes any difference, but in the past I had here and there issues with adults that didn't change to weather-appropriate clothing (when they showered it changed back if I changed them) then turning blue and saying they were about to freeze to death. Due to this issue in the past, I have played with the setting for sensitivity to temperature off for a long time. This may be a workaround to consider. If it's only happening for one household, you could turn it back on when you play a different one?

    Sensitivity to temperature can be turned off and on in: Enter your game save > Options Menu > Game Options > Environment > (uncheck this box) Enable Temperature Effects on Sims.

    I do see this bug report on the issue. You could add your 'me too' and info to it, if you want: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-SE-Sims-not-automatically-changing-to-Cold-Outerwear/td-p/9768958/page/2
