    birthdays

    Apologies if this has already been posted. I've found that if I buy a cake, I can make anyone blow out the candles and age, whether they're close to aging or not. I accidentally grew a young adult to an adult like this. I like being able to use it to grow up babies before their time, but I'm wondering if it was meant to be there or not.

      Hi Silla:

      I almost did the same thing when it was Malcolm Landgraab's birthday. I chose Crumplebottom first, then realized what had happened. I thought that was rather strange as it was Malcolm I sent to the cake. Seems an extra unneeded step to me, but I thought they might have done it in case you had twins, triplets growing up and several cakes.

      What do you think?

      I have the exact same issue :O I noticed that if a person had already grown up, they couldnt use the cake for the next couple days, but after that, it seems anyone can grow up, and it bus me that I have to monitor this to ensure that I dont accidentally grow up a sim prematurely.

      I believe it is supposed to be like that. It's just a choice if you want to do it or not.

      I kind of like the feature. I'm impatient and I was always growing my sims2 sims up early. I think it's worth the extra monitoring.

      I like the feature. Babies take way too long to turn into Toddlers and toddlers take too long to turn into kids.
