Sentiments

They say: "Sentiments come in varying strengths, with some lasting longer than others, but they all fade away over time."
I believe some sentiments such as "Awed by Lifesaving Hero" (This Sim was saved from the clutches of death by another Sim.) should last for the rest of that sim's life!
Every time that sim sees his/her hero he/she would think: "That guy/gal saved my life!"

I agree that with most things it is like you described, but not for something like saving your life. I don't believe you would ever forget it.
I have an example in my family, when he was young my dad saved the life of a friend who was at gun point. When they were old, my dad's friend every time he met my dad in a group, he would comment about that day when his life was saved by him.
I agree. My sixth great-grandfather fell into a mill race when he was a young teen and would have drowned but for two sisters jumping in to save him. One girl grew up to marry a Governor of Georgia, years later. But, even then John never forgot they had save his life. He would bring them bolts of the finest material as a thank you whenever he had a chance to see them.

I wish that they can add lifelong sentiments (will not fade unless you try to get rid of them). This way they can change the “ugh I hate my family” moodlet (Parenthood GP, from having a negative relationship with parent when growing up = you will get tensed every time the parent is around). If you instead get a lifelong negative sentiment to a parent (from bad parenting) there are always a possibility to forgive / reconcile with this parent (maybe try to get rid of the lifelong sentiments through family therapy? Or just leave it as it is if you want to keep this tension in the realtionship).
I really liked that feature from Parenthood, but I often avoid using it because you can't change the realtionship later on.
LIFE STRUGGLES PACK
I think something like that would add some dynamism to Sim relationships, if the choices they make could affect things like that, and the Parenthood bits could change over time. I mean it is sort of silly in the first place to make it like "so and so were BFFs as kids so they're BFFs for the rest of their life," like that's not realistic either? I don't talk to either of my childhood BFFs anymore, even if they're my siblings, so I don't think that's something that should be permanent either.
我并不感到困扰
I am kind to everyone. But if you are unkind to me, kindness is not what you will remember me for.
I am autistic. Wording isn't my strong suit.
Stop player on player violence.
A parent should never loose the adoring sentiment for their child unless the relationship between parent and child has reached a very bad state, same with siblings or pretty much anybody that gets this sentiment for another sim and the relationship is being maintained in a good state. I don't believe this sentiment should just fade away while the relationship is still good, it makes no sense for it to fade away with time.
