What defines "Growing up well"?

I'm slightly curious how a toddler manages to grow up badly. I pay pretty much the minimum attention to them, only training them as the parents roll the relevant wants, dealing with them when they hit "warning" for food, social, or diapers, and otherwise just letting them do whatever they like.
Yup, that's my approach as well. Toddlers are, frankly, boring. I generally fill the nursery with toys and leave them alone to play, apart from feedings and required skillination. I don't really pay attention to whether they grow up well or not. I may not even throw a birthday party for them until they are children and have some friends to invite.

Learn to read, Xebarsis. Obviously there's something more than just learning the basics while a toddler.
I've had success in growing up every toddler "well" I've played since the game came out. I only ensured that they learned to walk, talk and use the toilet. Only a small handful of them had any access to any toddler skill-gain items, such as the peg box, and their outcome was no different than those who did not have the toys. The teaching was alternated between parents of varying relationships with them.

When I first played toddlers in TS3, I had several not grow up well ...I didn't get the option to choose his/her traits and they got negative traits like "loser". Now I make sure they are are potty trained, learn to walk and talk, I get the option to choose traits for them. Other than that I pretty much let them play on their own. I do like playing toddlers tho'. They cute.

I will echo what others are saying, whenever I have taught toddlers to walk, talk and use the potty they grew up well (note:I am not sure if you need all three since I have only done all or nothing). Whenever I have not they grew up poorly. With kids and teens it's just grades so pretty obvious there. I have never had a rough pregnancy but I gathered it's based on the mother's mood and I generally keep mine high most of the time.

since I don't think they get comfort moodlets from their cribs
I thought that if you stuck a teddy in their inventory they got comfort moodlets.
