[AA] Certain Formative Moments does not appear

There are 2 children in the family and I'm trying to fulfill all kinds of Formative Moments for them. One of them has everything done, and the other has problems with the implementation of " Child Caregiver", " Aspiring Author" and "Childhood Grief Survivor". No matter how hard I try to evoke these 3 Formative Moments, I can't.

I tried completely deleting The Sims 4 folder, moving to another lot, saving the family to the gallery and moving into the house again. I tried to remove all buffs and moodlets through the MCC, removed hidden features, changed character traits and set interests, I tried to engage in those activities that should give access to Formative Moments (read books, wrote books, played dollhouse, improved relationships with a neighboring baby, went to cemeteries, became a friend of death, watched death of more than 20 Sims with all possible reactions). I tried to talk to the child as a guardian, I tried to constantly communicate between the children, I keep clicking on myself and selecting the Formative Moment search action in different areas, with different Sims, with different environments (which in theory should give the right Formative Moment). I already don't know what to do to make these 3 Formative Moment available.

I have mods, but not many of them. They are all updated. I play with a family of 3 people - 2 children and a guardian (who is constantly down the rabbit hole). I want to make 2 perfect Sims. The first child did everything perfectly, there is an inscription on the panel that he did everything. And the second child has problems with just these 3 Formative Moment.

I think there is a bug in the game with the removal of the available Formative Moments. I accidentally clicked on the X once or twice and closed them. In addition, there was a message that I don't have enough space for new Formative Moments, so they will be displayed later. But that didn't happen.

English is not my native language, I write with the help of a translator. I tried to make the text as clear as possible. I apologize for any mistakes or inaccuracies.

    I don’t use any mods and I’m having the same issue. Twin girls, one got the ’Child caregiver’-formative moment from the start the other one I have not been able to trigger it no matter what I do. She’s besties w many infants already and i tried reading parenting books too. Just doesn’t show up.

    I managed to get so many of them. But now, I've reached a point where nothing I do will trigger the others. Outdoor Enthusiast? I have done everything outdoors I can think of. Natural living stuff. Camping. Archery. Fishing. Swimming. Looking for frogs. Care About the Environment? I have dumpster dived, beachcombed for trash, picked up trash when in places that I happen to see it. I can't clean the beach, as I already had the child's mother clean that up before she had a family. I got a bug farm. Aspiring Author? Write in journal, read under the covers, read, and over and over and over. Be the Best Friend? I thought it might be linked to gifts. I gave money, papercrafts, collectibles. Nothing. Show Morbid Curiosity? I had the boy spend 2 full days in Crow's Crossing after attending the Family Day. He's full friends with Edith. The caretaker of the cemetery, the guy who sells stuff, talked to specters, ghosts, told ghost stories in the crypts, slept in the coffin... There are other moments I'm looking for too. I just do not know what else I can do. I keep hoping someone online comes up with a list of all the different triggers to bring up the options. I can't even have the child think about possible moments. It constantly says none available. Even after doing activities linked to said moments. I won't give up though. lol lol

    Outdoor enthusiast was triggered from relationships with imaginary friends from me. They randomly just suggested it
