The aspiration Successful Lineage goal "have a child complete an aspiration" won't check off. I thought it was because I finished one of the newer ones "Playtime Captain" so I also made sure to complete the old one "Rambunctious Scamp" but still it won't check off on his father's aspiration. I own all the packs released so far and I got no mod or cc.

this is broken. been broken for longer than 4 months. A reddit post about this same thing is dated back 11 years. I've gone through two different aspirations and with my sim's twins, yet her nor her husband have been able to knock "have a child complete an aspiration' off their aspiration list.
I also have this same issues. Done all 4 of the child aspirations.
I am also having this problem i had my child completed the rambunctious scamp aspiration. But my parent sims box did not check
Photos of the issue.
This can be done for any child, at any level and any aspiration.
The feature is simply broken.
This can also be done on any system (PC or Xbox/Playstation) without mods and without Custom Content, because again, the system is just broken.
Edit:
Even using cheats, the system is still broken..
The aspiration "completes" but it won't even show as complete.
I am also having this issue.
I see the post was changed to "Under Investigation" 4 months ago, and yet this broken feature has not been addressed.
I feel a feature of the game that is completely broken should be a high priority.
As someone who plays with "Super Sims" I am completely unable to continue gameplay until this feature of the game is fixed, as my Sim cannot obtain the aspiration trait, and that is what makes super sims, a super sim, is collecting aspiration traits.
I would not like to resort to cheating to have access to a feature that should work.
Thank you.
I'm having the same issue, tried with two different save files, with CC on and CC off, it doesn't fulfill, glad to see I'm not alone.
Just wanted to let you know I've tested all three aspiration types (child, teen, and adult) at all three life stages (child, teen, and adult) and none worked. I've also tested both part-time jobs and full 10-level careers, and neither worked. Several other people in this thread have mentioned testing child and adult aspirations and neither worked, so it's definitely still a bug and not user error.
A note for people trying to test work-arounds: If you hover over the 'Have child complete aspiration' objective, it explains that only Child-level aspirations (Rambunctious Scamp, etc.) count. So, make sure that you're testing on a child aspiration.
Are these ten-level careers, or are they part time jobs? I've never known part time jobs to count toward that objective, whereas I've always had success when they completed a 10-level job.

"Have a Child Complete an Aspiration" still does not check off. Xbox one, all vanilla.
