Adults/teens/children at work/school on reload trying to skip work/school

I might be having this issue as well.  I just turned my game on and suddenly my sims' kids are walking circles in front of the house instead of going to school but it shows them as being at school.  I found another person who said this was happening to them as well, and every time they travel it brings the kids home.  I remember something like this happening years ago but not the walking in circles thing.
