Line 11:
In ''[[The Sims]]'', there are only three stages: [[Baby#The Sims|baby]], [[Child#The Sims|child]], and [[Adult#The Sims|adult]].
 
Babies grow into children after 72 hours. Children do not grow up into adults, although the ''[[The Sims: Makin' Magic|Makin' Magic]]'' expansion allows magical children to grow up by using the Age of Instant [[SpellsMagic (The Sims: Makin' Magic)#List ofChild charmsCharms|charm]]. There are third-party programs which can grow a child into an adult. There are also hacked objects which can allow a child to function as an adult, or vice versa. Children and adults have indefinite lifespans, and cannot die via aging.
 
==The Sims 2==
Line 19:
* '''[[Child#The Sims 2|Child]]:''' (8 days)
* '''[[Teen#The Sims 2|Teen]]:''' (up to 15 days) Note: With ''[[University]]'', teens can grow up early in order to go to [[College (sub-neighborhood)#The Sims 2: University|college]].
* '''[[Young adult#The Sims 2|Young adult]]:'''{{Vgversion|TS2:U}} (varies; usually 24 days) ''University'' only. Lasts until the Sim leaves the college [[sub-neighborhood]].
* '''[[Adult#The Sims 2|Adult]]:''' (29 days)
* '''[[Elder#The Sims 2|Elder]]:''' (varies; range is 9–3111–21 days) Sims who have higher [[Aspiration (The Sims 2)|aspiration]] levels when aging generally get more time, but there is a random element. Followed by [[death]].
 
Note: The durations of life stages stated here are subject to two caveats. The first is that the <code>aging off</code> cheat suspends aging for all Sims. The second is that, from teen onwards, Sims can use the [[Elixir of Life]] reward object to prolong life by 3 days (if successful) or shorten it by 3 days (if unsuccessful). Drinking from the [[Laganaphyllis Simnovorii|cowplant]] will also prolong life for five days.{{vgversion|UniversityTS2:U}} A successful '''Give Me A Long Life''' [[Genie#The Sims 2|wish]] will prolong life for four days.{{vgversion|FreeTimeTS2:FT}}
 
Sims that are teens or older can become [[zombie]]s{{vgversion|UniversityTS2:U}} or [[vampire]]s{{vgversion|NightlifeTS2:NL}}, which also stops them from aging. Nevertheless, teen vampires or teen-zombies can age by going to university. This action will change their age to young adult, and graduating will change it to adult, just like normal Sims. Also, [[PlantSim]]s have only three of the seven life stages: toddler, adult, and elder.
 
If a residential lot originally built in a [[College (sub-neighborhood)|college]] [[sub-neighborhood]] is placed in the [[Lots and Houses bin]], and then in a non-college area, its aging controller may remain stuck. Sims moved into such a lot will not age until they are moved into a lot with a working aging controller. The aging controller can be unstuck by moving the Sims out, making a [[build mode]] edit that changes the way the lot appears in the neighborhood view, and moving the Sims back in.

With [[The Sims 3/Patch 22|patch 22]], a new option enables players to adjust lifespan for each life stage. Some [[life state]]s have a lifespan multiplier that extends the ages in young adult and adult stages. For example, [[Vampire (The Sims 3)|vampires]] have 5x multiplier, which extends a Sim's age in young adult to 105 days in normal setting or 1125 days in epic setting.
 
A Vampire can live up to 9150 days (25 real years) with maximum settings, making it the longest survivable without [[cheats]] or [[Trait|traits]].
 
It is also possible to use a birthday cake to age up Sims at anytime. However, a Sim can only be aged up once per age. Players can also use the testingcheatsenabled true cheat, then shift+click a Sim, then click "trigger age transition". Players can do this as many times as they want, but doing this with elder Sims will kill them.
Line 110 ⟶ 112:
As in ''[[The Sims]]'', there are only 3 life stages in ''[[The Sims Medieval]]'': [[baby]], [[child]], and [[adult]]. The player cannot create children or babies, only hero Sims, who can only be adults. While the "Age modifier" can be used to make a hero Sim appear older, technically the Sims are still adults. Female Sims with this appearance can still be impregnated.
 
In a patch, the "Child Succession" feature was added. If a hero Sim whodies and they had one or more children die, then the new hero select menu will have the option to choose "Child Succession". This will makeallows the childplayer Simto choose one of the neworiginal hero,'s aschildren ato controllableage into an adult, where they will take over their parent's Simprofession.

==The Sims FreePlay ==
''[[The Sims FreePlay]]'' has 6 stages. They are infant, toddler, preteen, teen, adult, and senior. Unless the player has unlocked the final stage of the quests,quest life"Life dreamsDreams and legaciesLegacies", they will have to pay 5 life points to make a birthday cake in order to age their Sims up. There are cheats to get around this though.{{which}}
