I did not know children could learn that.

I am confused. Sims 2 has couples counseling?
Apartment Life does.

Yes, there's a variety of new study options in AL.
- Couples Counseling (lets you help repair the relationship between two arguing sims in a marriage)
- Fire Safety (Which I think makes your sim not have a panic attack when a fire breaks out, not completely sure, I tend not to have fires)
- Parenting (Gives you the ability to "check on" a baby and have their biggest need pop up above their head, food/hygiene/etc)
- Anger Management (Less likely to become furious and fury lasts less time)
- Lifelong Happiness (I think their aspiration meter goes down slower)
...I may be forgetting one...
Anyway, I agree that it's wierd children can learn couples counseling. Especially considering I don't think they can learn parenting. You would think they'd learn to take care of an infant much sooner than they'd learn about adult relationships and all that entails. One of my sim children rolled up this one and it struck me as a wee bit odd but I didn't think about it too much until she finished and she got the usual "I've learned it" popup. "Sometimes love just isn't enough, and when it isn't, I'll be there to help smooth things out!" ...Kinda creepy and sad from a child. :'( None of mine will ever learn that before adulthood again, nope!
Wouldn't mind a hack to make them stop rolling that as a want. And possibly to enable learning parenting, too, but that isn't a big deal.

Well, ya know, kids are always depicted as freakishly good at mending relationships/setting people up, aren't they? I mean, how many variations of The Parent Trap have they made?

Physiology.
And if they study it they get the same faster skill building bug as anyone else.

Children learning couples' counseling is just creepy to me. Fire Safety? Sure. Even anger management, if they're in a furious kinda place. I can see a kid/teen rolling a want to learn couples' counseling if, say, their mom just caught their dad bumpin' uglies with the maid, but it's just not reasonable to have sim kids mucking about anywhere near this particular skill set. Yeah, Mommy and Daddy were on the verge of divorce until Junior took a break from his game of Cops & Robbers to come navigate the murky waters of human interpersonal dynamics.
