Your Sim/couple, for some reason (make up a story why), is unable to have kids but loves the idea of a big family. So the only solution is…. Adoption!!

Goal/Objective
Your Sim/couple’s goal is to adopt and raise as many children as possible throughout their young adult-elder lifetime.

Rules
*NO CHEATING. At all, whether you type it in or use a mod (unless the mod doesn’t give you an unfair advantage in gameplay) no cheats.
*However many total kids you adopt in one age group, you must adopt the same in the others. (i.e. if you adopt a total four babies, you must also adopt four toddlers, and four children too)
*You can either have a single sim or a couple (straight or gay). However they may not have ANY children of their own. You can’t, that’s why you’re adopting remember??
*Your “foster parent” Sim cannot have a regular job. They may have a part-time job only, or garden/paint/collect for money. HOWEVER if you have two sims, one may have a regular job. But the other may not.
*Have fun!!! :up:

Getting Started
*You must start your character(s) in Young Adulthood with Family-Oriented as one of their traits. You can choose the others.
*You CANNOT move into a pre-made house. You can move into any sized lot that you would like and build your house however you want.
*Get a job (following the rule above!) of your choice.
*Adopt your first kid(s)!!! :)

Challenge Ends if…
*Any kid is taken by social worker
*Use of any cheat
*Any kid dies
*Foster Parent(s) dies.

Points!
+2 for each child raised to YA successfully
+3 for each toddler raised to YA successfully
+4 for each baby raised to YA successfully

i.e. Katie in elementary(point) and high school(point)
+1 for each Best Friend/BFF outside the family
+0.5 for each Best Friend/BFF inside the family
(cannot be used vice-versa i.e. Amy & George and George & Amy)
+1 for each boyfriend/girlfriend
+0.4 for each trait you are allowed to choose

Has something changed? Can you adopt teenagers now?

I don't think adopting teenagers is even possible. Especially because they can't be taken away by social workers.

it would be pointless for them to be in care as they can cook and such.
