Line 19:
In ''The Sims 2'' and ''The Sims Stories'', children and teens will have homework in their hands after they get off the school bus. If possible, they will put the assignment on or by a desk, and seem to prefer the first desk that was placed in the house, even if it is in an illogical or inaccessible location.<ref group="n">A [https://modthesims.info/d/312004/quot-put-your-homework-away-properly-quot.html mod] on [[Mod The Sims]] remedies this issue by forcing Sims to place their homework at a player-defined location, rather than at random.</ref> If a student has unfinished homework, he or she will put the new homework on top of it. The player can tell the student to put the homework down by canceling the "Go to School" icon. Homework can be moved in buy and build modes, though it cannot be deleted. A child's homework will be brightly colored, while a teen's homework will be plainly colored.
Clicking on the homework gives the child or teen an option to complete it or ask an older Sim for help. An older household member, when the homework is clicked, can offer help with finishing the homework.
A child or teen who is being helped with homework will finish it faster, and will gain the [[Memories|memory]] of being [[Secret skills#The Sims 2|taught to study]]. This will fulfill the "Ask for Homework Help" [[Wants and Fears|want]], and will allow them to do homework more quickly in the future. If ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons|Seasons]]'' is installed, students will do homework faster in the [[fall]], or after drinking [[Juices#Recipes|apple juice]].
There is no time limit on homework in ''The Sims 2'', but doing (or not doing) homework will affect a student's grades. A student who goes to school in a good mood with all homework done will gain a better grade. Students will not be penalized for going to school with one piece of incomplete homework, but going to school with more than one piece of incomplete homework may cause their grades to drop.<ref group="n">Grades are adjusted according to the amount of incomplete homework remaining on the lot, and not whether the homework was actually completed. Thus, players can simply delete homework using the [[moveobjects]] cheat or have a [[pet]] destroy it, and Sims will not be penalized for it.</ref>
