Default Mod to enable putting children up for adoption
Hi all,

I have been trying to find a mod that lets me put a baby/toddler/child up for adoption. I have found a few that allow it for The Sims 2 but not 3, so was wondering if anyone knew of a good mod that works with the latest update and expansions (I have WA and HELS).

Apologies if this question has been asked a billion times before, since I'm sure there must be others looking for it, but I have searched for a mod on this site and others and can't find anything for TS3.

Thanks!
Aimee

Sorry for bumping, but I'm looking for an adoption mod too.
(I have the base game patched to 1.19)

Adopton service should be on the base game anyway. Just pick up the phone and click services. Surely it's there?

I think someone will offer to make a 'put child up for adoption' if they see this thread.

No, they want to give their child up for adoption. Not adopt a kid. What I reccomend is going to edit town, splitting up the household, and pawning the kid on someone else.

I would be very interested in this too! I've had a bunch of kids that I wanted to just add to the adoption pool, but didn't want to go through the whole abusing them just to get them forcibly taken scenario, heh.

Well, you don't have to abuse them, BrilliantJ, you can just ignore them until the social worker comes.

But yeah, as far as I know, splitting the household is currently the only way. If you want a specific family to adopt a specific child, Twallan's Master Controller lets you swipe children from other Sims in the neighborhood and then change their relationship with add/remove parent to make the adoptive parents show as the real parents in the family tree.

The fun thing about this is, sometimes, the child will still occasionally get wishes to hang out with their original parents.

That's probably because they have a pre-existing relationship, and even if they're just 'friends' in the relationship bar, they'll roll wants to hang out with them.

*bump* now that Pets came out and the option to put pets up for adoption is available, I'm sure it is a lot easier to put children up for adoption. Yes? No? Maybe?

I would also like this mod. You have to have an adult with them to split the household. And, going through the process of that really messes up your family funds, relationships, etc. I have a slow computer and I don't want to go and download Master Controller every single time I have this problem. Hopefully someone could find/make this mod.
Just call me Blake! :)

I'm also currently looking for this type of mod, for sims 2 though... I can't find one that doesn't run the risk of messing up your neighbourhood...

I think that with the way pets work, maybe using some of that code for children sims would work but perhaps not quite

I'm looking for a mod like this also, but one thing I would also want is an additional relationship like "Adoptive Mother/Father" Is anybody working on this or knows of a mod that is already made?

I use Nraas Master Controller for this.
Place child you want adopting with new parents then click on the kid with Nraas>Advanced>Family>Remove/Add parent.
It does just the same by removing birth parents and adding whomever as the new adopted parent.
