Teenagers
Half adult, half child.
Sim teens deal with a lot of the same issues as real teens. They go to school from 8 to 1, work part time jobs, and date. They deal with problems such as acne and heartache. This is also the stage where you choose their lifetime aspiration. Felicia's lifetime aspiration is knowledge.

Raising a Teenager

Aspirations and Wants:

Teenagers have wants and needs just like all other sims. The wants a teenager has are based on their lifetime aspiration, either family, fortune, knowledge, popularity, or romance. Since Felicia's aspiration is knowledge, she gets aspiration points from doing things like looking through a telescope.

Love and Heartbreak:

Teenagers are able to go steady with other teen sims. They may want to have a "First Kiss." They are also able to hug, kiss, and flirt with their crushes and boyfriends/girlfriends. With love though, comes heartbreak. Felicia asked a boy to "Go Steady," but was rejected. Over the next few days, she will cry and think about this rejection often.

Getting a Job:

Felicia's first job is in the Science career track as a Lab Glass Scrubber. She goes a few days a week for just a few hours, so that she still has time to complete homework and spend time with friends and family.

A teen sim with outstanding (A+) grades who has reached the top of their teen career track is an Overachiever. This is a big aspiration for some sims and their parents.

If a teenager has bad grades in school, the school will call the teen's job and they will be fired so that that they have more time for homework.
