I want a punishment system where you can decide what or what not to punish them for and even setting your own curfew times. I feel like this could work like the club system from GT where you decide dos and don't and in this case what to punish or reward for. For example even though it makes no sense; You could set do homework for things not to do and watch TV for things to do. In this case the child/teen would be punished for doing their homework and rewarded for watching TV. Also let's say you set their curfew for 1 am and they're back later than that, then the parents/guardian would punish them. Idk though just an idea, because it feels really empty when you can't really have the strict or chill parents. They're all just the same to me. Tell me your guy's thoughts!
Edit: Setting do/don't and curfew for each individual child/teen would be awesome as well.
A perfect location for this would be in the setting panel when you go into build mode. It could be labeled as house rules and would have all of the members of your household listed. There you could set rules for certain age groups and certain sims. This way you have full customization of how your sim parent or runs the household. Optional of course.

hey the OP says that it would be PLAYER controlled NOT like it was Sims 3.. So that you have DIFFERENT styles of parenting
Punishment ideas could include
Terrific Family Play
Too fun
The sims 2 forever
One thing I don't want is a return of the blanket curfew unless it's something we can disable.
My Mood:
I like this; personally, it would be neat to spank toddlers/kids as well. That way if they do something real bad it can be a last resort. Since sims fight and slap each other in the game, I don't see where this can't be done. I'm hoping it wouldn't create a huge minus in the relationshi[p though, but just an embarrassed or sad mood. Also as another simmer said, no curfews like in S3. My teen went out to look at a UFO and got detained for breaking curfew; I wasn't too happy about that.
well. +1 for this then!
So we can ground child, teenager for not going to school, not doing homework, and not doing chore while parent ask you to do.
