Sims can't interact with toddlers at all, aging up toddlers can't be aged up

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Mac
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.90.375.1220
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Nearly all of them
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Sims won't interact with toddler, command disappears, aging up toddler no longer appears
What happens when the bug occurs? I give an adult Sims a command to take of or interact with a toddler and then nothing happens. The action disappears and the Sims stand in front of each other doing nothing. The adult Sims stands around doing nothing then glitches for a second, comes back, and whatever interaction I set for them disappears. I also can't age up the toddler either
What do you expect to see? Sims obeying the command to interact or take care of toddler, who is also the child of said Sims
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. I have a lot of mods and cc, but before the recent patch adult Sims could take of toddlers just fine. I had no issue aging babies to toddlers, but now I can't age up toddlers to children, the option has disappeared. I had none of these issues prior to the last two patches, the one in July 26, 2022 and the one on August 2. I'm not even entirely certain the newest patch, the one that was supposed to fix everything from the previous busted patch in July, was even updated properly unto my game, I can't tell the difference. I have the new High School Years pack, but that shouldn't be effecting interactions with toddlers.

Adult Sims can't interact with toddlers in any way, not even taking care of them. Aging up toddlers option does not appear. Toddler has to take of themselves because giving food and drink does not work. Sims are given the command, glitch out for a split second, and the command disappears. Prior to patch updates, taking care of toddlers with mods and cc did not cause issues.

    Move your Mods folder to the Desktop and delete localthumbcache.package. Then test the game in a new save.
    If it works now check for updates to your Mods and CC. Add it back a little at a time while testing until you have found all that are broken.

  • This is the most broken update since Seasons. I've not seen so many issues with things that really should have no correlation in a logical sense.

    Moving a folder or file is done by dragging it with your mouse while holding the right mouse button .down.

    Please install todays patch and se if you still have the issue.
