arassivad by any chance do you have the business and hobbies pack? and if you do, have either of your sims affected ever used the "skillful sleep" mastery skill perk? I've been doing some testing in a new save with a new same-sex couple and am trying to see if the earlier posters guidance on maybe skillful sleep being related to this bug holds true for this new save. I have tested going into CAS with this new save couple before they had a child and they did not come out as siblings and I tested going into cas and changing something on an infant child of another same-sex couple in this save and they also did not come out as siblings. Once I age up my new couple's daughter and then edit all her outfits in CAS I will update here if they come out as siblings. (None of these couples in this new save have the skillful sleep mastery perk btw)

Hey, kind of intercepting here. I don’t have businesses and hobbies. So, imma go out on a limb here and say that this issue is likely not related to a perk. If it is, then it would be an issue with all perks then because my sims aren’t a same sex couple and this glitch happened to them and they have 6 kids altogether who all have random perks. I also saw someone else say that it might be related to same sex couples…. But no, that’s not it either. I simply think it has something to do with the family tree system and how it recalls familial relationships. Remember there was a time when this game had no family tree at all. It was implemented into the game a year or so later. Some update that the Sims team did years ago caused this ish to get its signals crossed. I might’ve been one of the first few people that was affected by this issue the first go round when it first happened years ago. They released a patch years later to “fix” it for “new saves” only which is bs. I want my current game fixed not me being told… “Oh, you’re S.O.L so start a new save”. Fast forward, here it is years later and whatever the sims team allegedly did to allegedly stop this issue back then has now affected more people’s saves this time around with the glitch now surfacing to other players save games. I hate this for us but im relieved because maybe the sims team will take this seriously and fix our current save games. Now how it relates to CAS, that’s what’s needs to be figure out. They did all these updates that affect the family tree system in one way or another including adding in pronouns and the ability to select married or engaged in CAS. It’s all linked somehow. It could very well be something else, too. Something that triggers the issue to affect CAS which in turns affects the family tree. I just don’t know.
