Social worker

The Social Worker is an NPC who will take away a Baby, Toddler, or Child if their needs drop too low. If a player has the Expansion Pack Seasons and the child becomes too cold or too hot, they will also be taken away. If there are any other children under Teen in the house, they will all be removed. Once they are taken away, they will all be available for adoption by a different family (or families). Once a person has the memory of having a child taken away by the Social Worker, they are ineligible for adopting ever again.

The only way to stop the Social Worker from taking away children without cheats is the Plead with Social Worker interaction, which is only available in FreeTime to Family Sims via lifetime aspiration benefits. Even if there is a wall around the children, the Social Worker will teleport the child out of the structure and to her car.

Player Stories

 * I made a social worker move in.She had many alien pregnancies. She is dead now.


 * In my game When i used the gypsy matchmaker my blind date was... the Social worker!! I got her to move in and then married her. -Slew
 * In my game, the Social Worker reproached my sim and then they knew each other. They became good friends and then the Social Worker could move in. Now, there is a Sim named "Social Worker" in the neighborhood.
 * In my game, the social woker took away my toddler and I love when my toddlers cry. It's fun to see them suffer. Its just so much fun :D


 * In my game, I created a family called the Hollycoms. it was 2 boys, Jacob and Joshua and the parents, Andrew and Ashley. On the 2nd day, the kids went to school and the parents went to work. the kids got home earlier than the parents and you can guess what happened, the social worker took them away after about an hour home alone. Ashley had a baby that turned out to be a boy. they named him Jacob, after their (former) oldest son. right now Ashley is trying to get pregnant with her 4th (or 2nd) baby. if it's a boy, that will be their last child, if it's a girl, they'll keep having kids till they get a boy.
 * I was playing my family- the Robson's,two girls (joined) they had 4 adopted kids-3 girls and 1 boy, Isabella,Abigail and Walinda-boy was Joao) three were children and the other about to turn into one. And one of the women cheated and fell pregnant with a boy Carlos, he was about to turn into a toddler. My women didn't come home because of a glitch, the social worker came and took all 5 of my kids. so my ladies were not able to adopt anymore but thats alright, the one that cheated just kept spitting out kids :-) to Don Lothario!
 * In my game, this alien family added a social worker to their family. Good thing the youngest person was a teen.
 * In my game I used cheats to add the Social Worker to Olive Specter's house then made Olive murder her!
 * In my game, one of my Sims married the Social Worker so I changed her name to Anna V. Also, the social worker came to take my twins away but I hadn't exactly left them alone. The mom was at work and the dad was watching the kids, but he had gotten abducted by aliens so the son (a kid) was watching the babies and the social worker came. I tried to get them to grow up but I couldn't do it. So I deleted the Social Worker and killed her several times but she just kept coming back. So I did boolprop testingcheatsenabled true then shift-clicked on the car and caused it to have an error and then I deleted it. Then I moved the whole family out of town and we never saw the Social Workers again.
 * In my game, there was a family of only 2 Sims: a boy (AFAIR his name was Harry) and his uncle Max, who was an elder. At 6 p.m. Max died (because of his age) and Harry was left alone. Of course, the Social Worker came to take Harry, but he had one day left to become a teenager, so I clicked on him and choose the option to grow up. Harry became a teenager, but he was taken by the Social Worker anyway :(
 * I had a single female sim who had two children and lived in the house with her sister. The kids were a girl and a boy, one a child and one a baby. One night my sim was at work and her sister was watching the children. The sister started stargazing and suddenly she was abducted by aliens! (I never had that happen before and had no idea what was going on) but then the social worker came and took my sim's kids away! My lady got home from work to find an empty house - her children had been taken away and the aliens still had her sister.


 * in my game i was speeding up time really really fast then this sad music played and a lady came out of the car. IT WAS THE SOCIAL WORKER.It was weird and her face was scary.But i saw her too late and when i saw her she was getting into her car. She took mt toddler and my kid but i still have my teen.IN YOU'RE FACE SOCIAL WORKER!!!!!!!!!!:)

THE END
 * In my game I had a family called the Delungs (I know it is a werid name) They were a woman named Sarah and her husbond named Cody. They adopted a child named Alan and he grew up into a teen. Later on they adoped a baby and I named it Susie. When she grew up into a todder she got taken away from the social worker. I played with another family I made called the Discos a cople named Angelina and Stu. They wanted a todder so they adoted one and it was Susie!!! So I moved the Delung family in with the disco family and I clicked on the newspaper and pressed go to new home (you know what I mean) while I was on Sarah and I choosed Cody, Alan, and Susie and they moved back to their old home.
 * In my game I made a girl and a boy seperate but perfect for each other. They got married and had a little girl, Breanne. Anna(Mom) and Zach(Dad) loved Breanne to death, I mean they wouldn't leave her alone. She grew up into a kid with a platinum aspiration. So she went to school and Anna&Zack went to work. The kid got home 2 hours before Anna&Zach did so this sad music played and they took Breanne away! Anna cried Zach commited suicide and then Anna used boolProp and THAT social worker showed up. Social Worker is dead. THE END!
