    You can set relationships with it now. 

    It's a bit complicated but you'll find instructions on the first page of the mod. 

    You can either do it with console command or by clicking on one Sim and then on the target and then et relationship

    I think you need the cheat module and turn it on on Sims.

Hmm...no, I did not try those cheats. Thanks! 

As for your question, Mortimer and his parents are both elder ghosts but his two brothers are just elders.

EDIT: Okay, that did not seem to work. I'm assuming the < and > isn't required, though. I think I should also note that in the genealogy, Mortimer's mother (not the one I created) is a gray anonymous looking space, despite the fact that I never made that character.

    Well, if he already has a mother, he can't have another one. Did you ever give him a mom ? I don't think there is one in the standard game (not sure really)

      Yeah, I'm pretty sure there isn't one in the standard game. Whenever I was making his father, it seems to have randomly generated a wife for him that is only visible as a faceless gray person that I am not able to edit. 

      I don't know why I was able to make one of his brothers her son though...

        I don't know either but it explains why you can't give him another mother.

        What about the third son ? Does he have a mother ?
