I assume there may be a pre-teen stage added in a future expansion pack. But personally, another stage just may annoy me. If you think about it, (like life) there are sooo many stages in between before you get to a full fledge adult.
I like playing adults because I enjoy the reproductive stage (them having kids) so I can move on from them, and play their children. I guess you can say that it's a cycle lol.
Newborn, baby, toddler(pain at times) child, "PRE-TEEN"teen, young adult, ADULT..... that is wayyyy too much lol.
I understand the need for it though because there are many simmers who are pre-teens and would enjoy making someone in the game who represents themselves. However, after the adult stage, its elder. You wouldn't want a "midlife crisis" stage now would you?

i like the ages like it is
plus sticking another age in the middle later on would just be complicated

And to add, technically, Young-Adult isn't new unless you didn't play Uni. This gives me future hope that they plan on creating another college based game for the Young-Adults. And yes, they can have kids as well. I think I may make all my young-adults start early unless they have a career. That way, they can raise their kids by the time they reach the elder stage or mid-adult, the kids will be well to do. That and they won't be about to croak with a teenager lol. (no offense)

were young adults able to have kids in the sims 2? i can't remember since i haven't played in so long but, i don't think they were since they were living on campus. so, it'll be fun for a young adult to have kids and have the kids raised by the time they get to the elder stage.

Yes, young aÃults were able to have kids when they left campus.
I got a college sim engaged and he knocked her up a few times while he was still finishing up.
It was pretty funny, by the time he was finished with his degree, his fiancee had at least 2 children by him and they eventually got married. He was still a young adult and I believe she was a young adult(unsure)
The kids barely saw him and didn't even know him that well.

Young female adults weren't able to get pregnant. But male young adults could knock someone up as long as they were a full fledged adult.
Re: Sims 3 aging - tv_freak - 26-11-2008 03:08 PM
because time didn;t really pass in the university young adult females were unable to naturally get pregnent (meaning without cheats)
i did once get one of my adult female sims pregnent by a young adult....
