Mod: Children/Toddlers Can Die of Anything
Updates:
2025 March 20th - Finally updated for Life & Death. THIS MOD HAS BEEN COMPLETELY REWORKED, READ CAREFULLY! Core Library is now required for the death interactions to work on children/etc., this makes the mod slightly less conflict heavy for the interactions. If you do not have Core Library already, download it and place it directly in your mods folder or only one sub-folder deep. Conflicts can still happen if you have any mod that adjusts the tests for the interaction (what determines who can do the interaction), and any mod that touches the ghosts traits as EA removed all other ages in the L&D patch and I need to override them to add the missing ages back in order for the sims to stay dead. The "resources used" info file included in the .zip has been updated to list the new files and separated based on the type.
Originally created by Simstopics, which Scarlet maintained until she retired, and now adopted, re-worked, and maintained by me.
Original Description, modified: This mod enables the ability for infants, toddlers and children to die from majority of deaths that teens-adults can, though some deaths are not enabled as they don't make sense (such as Old Age or the Mother) or just haven't been added yet. Also includes Emotional Deaths. Core Library is required for the death interactions to be enabled for the younger ages, otherwise if you just need the ghosts you only need the package file.
This mod does NOT have custom death interactions! The mod only edits EA's interactions to allow them to die like adults, either naturally or through using cheats or mods (like MCCC or UI Cheats) to trigger the death.
NOTE - If you have the mod “No Emotional Deaths Altogether” or MCCC setting to turn them off, then that will make it so the children (and every other age) will not die from the mood buffs. For example: The “Hysterical” moodlet will not create a death for the child sim with the No Emotional Deaths mod!

Hello. Is there any update about the mod as it is not working with infants anymore. TYIA and stay healthy and safe MizoreYukii 🖤
hello, does this mod still function fine?
I'm using this mod for over a month and it's working just fine, however the mod is not working like it used to be since there's an update this month. The toddlers and infants cannot die by hunger anymore. They're just stuck at starvation mode. Hopefully the Author can update the mod as I really love sacrificing toddlers and infants if they are mean and fussy 🤣
Is this mod compatible with extreme violence mods?
Does this apply to modded deaths like healthcare reduxes disease deaths?
does it work since the new update?
whenever my toddler or child dies the grim reaper comes but wont do anything and wont take the child or toddler away
Sorry for the wait, it's been re-worked and now uploaded.
In any situation. I've tried it multiple times. It could be another mod I have (I have the extreme violence mod, not sure if that could cause it). Fortunately, I can accomplish the same goal with MCCC so no wo rries.
MCCC doesn't enable deaths for children/toddlers, so based on what you said it sounds like you're looking for custom interactions which this mod does not have. They either die naturally in-game like adults, or you use cheats or mods like MCCC or UI Cheats to kill them manually. This mod just adjusts the tests so that they can in those situations that you choose, rather than being blocked entirely.
This is not working for me at all. I don't have any emotional death mods and I've tried reinstalling.
Which part isn't working, what are you doing exactly at the time, and for which ages are you trying? There is a current issue with infants. It is better to head to the Discord server for easier troubleshooting though if this isn't related to infants: https://discord.gg/JfCJEQBTBR
When you say babies do you mean newborns or infants?
Is this about my previous reply up above? Since that reply was 11 months ago, it was specifically about newborns at the time and is still the case for newborns. Infants were added though when this was updated for the patch, you can check the update log at the top.
If I use mc command center to disable emotional deaths is this mod compatible or will children and toddlers still die of emotions?
It should be compatible!
