About This Mod

Parenting Styles Mod adds eight parental traits to your family gameplay. These distinct parenting personalities directly affect how Sims raise their children. The main purpose of the mod is for parents to behave uniquely and realistically instead of every parent behaving the same way. With this mod, you can assign one of several parenting traits, such as Perfect Parent, Crunchy Parent, Fitness Parent, Creative Parent, and more. Each style unlocks a unique set of social interactions, behaviors, and activities, allowing your Sims to raise their kids in line with their values, lifestyle, and priorities. It also introduces multiple rabbit-hole activities tied to each parenting style, so your Sims can interact with their children in more ways than just the usual gameplay. Some parenting types even gain special buffs when using specific objects.
