The Children & Teens Phases Phase Out Mod

"The Children & Teens Phases Phase Out Mod" By VTK is a trait mod for children-elders.

Parenthood (GP05) - is required.

This mod lets you enjoy watching your children and teens enjoy their years without the negative phases keeping them down.

If teens are happy and their motives are high from being well taken care of, they shouldn't just pop off and start cursing out of no where.

That should only be applied only where it's appropriate.

So, if you have teens that are not bothered by demons, then they will remain appropriately portrayed by this mod as it blocks those phases.

Childhood & Teenagers Phases have been almost completely phased out.

Let's start with emotional buffs that have decay increased...

Stressed Buffs decay three times faster

Life skills in the game fluctuate a little too often in my opinion.

Since life skills for children, teens, and adults are constantly updating in the game, I thought it would be a good idea to add some mixer interactions that boost positive life skills and good manners.

Mixer Interactions from the Life Skills & Good Manners Menu:

Life Skills - Gain Good Manners (Don't worry, the game has autonomous gain bad manners and this helps to balance them out)

Life Skills - Good Manners Autonomy Max

Life Skills - Gain Responsibility

Life Skills - Gain Conflict Resolution

Life Skills - Gain Emotional Control

Life Skills - Gain Empathy

I've also added a non-pickable autonomous friendly introduction interaction as a mixer interaction which boosts good manners in children and teenagers.

So, it won't be visible in the Life Skills Menu.

I've given this mod one social interaction.

The "High Five To Happiness" is an uplifting friendly interaction that can pull other Sims out of the dumps.

Whatever bad mood they are in, try this interaction on them and watch their reaction.

Last but not least, this trait mod enlightens children to the many ways that they can have fun other than making a big mess that they or their parents would have to clean up.

So, they will seek other ways of having fun!

I will also make an alternative version that doesn't affect all children and teenagers and can be applied as a trait in CAS.

Teens are not going to want to curse and throw fits for no reason.

Children, teenage, and adulthood phases aren't completely blocked, just smoothed out to make the game more enjoyable.

This mod is for parents and adults in general as well.

It helps parents and other adults to get through their phases Parenthood and midlife phases.
