    @ShootUpSatan As your Sim is level 2 (and has the Grim Reaper Trait), I don't think you need to actually need to admit patients yet. Haven't played in a while though.

    The tasks on the patients fail .. and then you can't re-admit to bed cause that's not working on the level yet.

    my suspicion is cause for the exceptions are that Grim Reaper Trait.

    EDIT: On the second attempt I was able to do the interactions on the child as necessary. 

    EDIT EDIT: There should be more than one patient already admitted. I would just try the next day.

    @ShootUpSatan You mean you don't have the option or it's doing nothing ?

    Did you disable your mods or remove the mods folder and delete localcache before testing without mods ?

    @ShootUpSatan Think you misunderstand me.

    Does the option to admit patients not show up on the menu or does it not do anything when you click on it ?

    Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

    You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

    After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

    Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

    • Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
    • Tray Folder
    • Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
    • Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
    • Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
    • Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

    The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.

    @crinrict After I created the back up I launched it as it was, and the option showed up. So that worked. Then I added my saves to the game, and it's gone again. I took them out and restarted and it showed up. So I think my saves are corrupted maybe
