You can use mods. That's your only option if you want the stupid phone obsession gone.

This mod will stop Sims being on their phone all the time. There are two versions.

...and also a sim can't pass by the music center without dancing and god forbid if you have a pc in the room, then nothing interests you anymore, even if there are guests in the next room or a baby is crying lol

I don't have that problem at all. Must come with a DLC I don't have.

These issues affect a variable number of users. In my case, my Sims would use the phone: while jogging; while swimming; while eating or preparing food; before and after woohoo. Just on it constantly. (just like in real life!) It seemed to happen for me more after Get Together.

Yeah, I had THAT problem, too. Used and still use a mod for that. I meant the other problems I quoted.

@Niki Lauda (future reference?) Autonomy is always turned off in my games so I can't attest to how the less toddler check mod might work with it turned on. But my sims were doing it, anyway and this mod had put an end to toddler checks, entirely. It does nothing for infants. That's infantcaretweaks, I think. As of this current update, I have no idea if they're still working.

I agree with "Wolvet (real)", but to the people who commented thanks for the advice, cause i have the same problem

[Angela]

I completely shut down checking on babies + infants + toddlers using a mod that does the job perfectly (not the Bienchen one, another mod fixes it plus also using MCCC tuning and wiping certain interactions out), immediately age up babies to infants then stick "Always Full" on the infants so they don't die when I forget to manually check on them. Then I remove Always Full when I age them to toddlers and just leave plates of food around so they can self-care.

Works great, parents can actually get things done and I still get future generations (albeit somewhat angry and mentally scarred as they get older - then again that's just like irl isn't it ) as mobile decorations for my game.
