[HR] Can't fire Ranch hand

So I got the ranch hand and everything is great till my sim gets pregnant. Now they keep destroying the kids stuff and no matter how many times I fire them it won't stick! They don't leave, they keep destroying things and even stay all night so I can't extra fast time the night. PLS FIX seriously this is a nasty bug especially for a paid expansion.

This is on PlayStation and is a constant across all households. Also sometimes happens to the nanny. Noticed February 2025 reported May 2025.

    Hi venomrose13​ 

    there's a thread for Ranch Hands not leaving here: [HR] Ranch Hand Stays Past 7 pm | EA Forums - 12055579 and there's also one for multiple ranch hands if you also see this: [NEEDS SAVES] [HR] Multiple ranch hands | EA Forums - 11645232 

    We also have threads for nannies and gardener coming back after firing, need to check with CM if they want a separate one for ranch hands.

    As for the destroying kids stuff ? What exactly are they destroying ? The doll house ? Are they in an angry mood ? Do you know what traits your ranch hand has ?

    I was linking that as you mentioned that they also don't leave. If you meant that differently, then I misunderstood your post. I was just addressing all the different things you mentioned in your post.

    The firing is the same issue as the nanny and gardener that I didn't link as you seem to have already found those. At this point I don't know if Maxis wants yet another thread on the same issue or not so I'm waiting back to hear from a CM on that.

    Usually the dollhouse destroying is triggered by angry moods or the hates children trait. Strange that something else would cause it. Do you see any pattern ?
