Hi,
There are 2 characters to modify : Mortimer and Bella Goth
How an young adult can be the mother of a teenage ?
For example if Bella is a 20/30 years old human and Cassandra is a 16/18 years old teenage, that means she was a child/teen when she was pregnant and Mortimer was a teenage/young adult.
It's technically impossible because the game doesn't allow it. (No teen/adult romance, no teen pregnancy)
- Bella should be an adult and Mortimer should be an elder like The Sims 2.
- Or Cassandra could be a child like The Sims (2000) and Alexander could be a toddler.
Comments
To me, young adult is around 18-40.
If Cassandra is 15, and her Mother had her at 20, then she'd only be 35 years old.
Bella just become an young adult, it's her first day in this life stage

The Sims 4 General DiscussionAh, well I didn't know that! Haha. I tend to play with aging off so I don't suppose I noticed.
And in Cottage Living both Watsons are young adults too, and they have a teenage daughter.

The Sims 4 General DiscussionIt really depends on how you define a young adult. I always use the ratio 1,1,1,3,4,2 and while adults maybe go to a little too old using that ratio regarding having children, it makes sense to me. Sims 3 I was able to adjust this in the game settings while Sims 4 I have to use MCCC.
Though looking at the ages EA assigns, it shouldn't be possible. The absolutely fastest on normal game speed, assuming you go directly from baby to child, is 27 days, 34 if you add in the the toddler stage. Young adult stage is 24 days. Oops. I guess they wanted to make Bella a sex goddess and that meant she couldn't be an adult. A bit ageist if true, Maxis.
Edit: I need to learn how to math.
Lol, I always thought that was a bit weird too. Though I just figured maybe she was in her early, early twenties when she had Cassandra.
In fact, I always think YA sims are university students (like TS2), I can't imagine them having a high school teen with the same age as their sibling.

The Sims 4 General DiscussionSame thing with Katrina being an adult, with young adult kids. They wanted to show that she looks good for her age/had kids really early.
The Sims 4 hasn't introduced a new musical instrument since 2017
That is possible : a 40 years old mother with a 20 years old daughter.

The Sims 4 General DiscussionIt can happen IRL. I am an adult with a young adult child IRL. My oldest is just entering college after graduating high school. She is only a couple years younger than The Sims franchise. I am only about 25 years older than her.

The Sims 4 General DiscussionYou do have some people who skip the baby stage altogether. I personally skip the toddler stage in this game, because I dislike it.
So the only way to be a YA would be to be a university student? That... doesn't make sense at all.
Used to be the only way to be a YA in TS2 (and they were confined to the uni worlds).
I usually think of YA in TS4 to be around 18-35 years which makes Bella being the mother of a teenager more plausible to me.
Newborn : 0-1 year old
Toddler : 1-3 years old
Child : 3-9 years old
Preteen : 9-12 years old
Teen : 12-18 years old
YA : approximately ages 18-30s
Adult : 30-45 years old
Middle Age (Elder ?) : 45-65 years old
Old Age : +65 years old
12 + 18 = a 30 years old adult

In game, a baby become an YA after 156 days, so the YA parent will be an adult + 56 days
