'''Child''' is a life stage in ''[[The Sims]]'', ''[[The Sims 2]]'', ''[[The Sims 3]]'', ''[[The Sims 4]]'' and ''[[The Sims Medieval]]''. Child is the life stage after [[toddler]] and before [[teen]].
Line 82 ⟶ 77:
Children have three [[Trait (The Sims 3)|traits]]. In order for the player to select a child's fourth trait when they become a teenager, the child must have a [[School (The Sims 3)|school performance]] of at least a B, otherwise the new trait will be chosen at random. The worse a child performs at school, the more likely they are to gain a negative trait upon aging up. Children cannot have romance-oriented or persuasive traits like "flirty" or "charismatic," but if testingcheatsenabled true is used, they can sometimes get them by randomly rolling traits.
 
Unlike older Sims, child Sims can only die from very few causes: from starvationfire, drowning, or meteor strike. This is by deliberately game design, possibly due to developers perceiving the death of children being disturbing or frightening to the player.
 
===Dependencies and privileges===
In ''The Sims 3'', children are more depended independent than ever unlike in previous gamegames. While they still cannot cook (with the exception of the [[toy oven]], they're  are however capable of retrieving quick meals and leftovers from the refrigerator. Children also no longer need supervision of a [[babysitter]] when left alone in the house. They are capable of using their [[cellphone]] for the first time (albeit strangely, as they are unable to call emergency [[service]]s). It's also possible to have children make money on their own, as there are activities they're able to do that makesmake profit (such as fishing, painting, or selling lemonade/bake goods).
 
Children can stay at home alone, visit their friends' homes or visit [[community lot]]s by themselves, but they must be back on their home lot before the town curfew (10:00pm). If a child is out past their curfew, they will follow the nearest older member of their household or automatically head home, after which they will be unable to leave before 6:00 in the morning. Children will always choose bicycle, even when they don't own one, as a default means of long-distance transportation when cruising alone.
