FFS "Batbox" Lot Debugger v2.0: NUCLEAR WAR EDITION
Carida:
I've already had two permanent platinum toddlers.
Perhaps its a problem in my game? Or perhaps I"m just talented. Who knows.
-C
Edit: I also have the Timeclock installed which slows down time to whatever you prefer. I generally prefer slowing it down to 50% which gives me extra time to get everything done. No idea otherwise.

The hell? How the fuck do you fill a toddler's LTA meter in *4* days? That's not even possible by the numbers for accumulation given!

Huh? Sims don't get an LTA until they are a teen, thus cannot get PermaPlat.

Either your game is borked, or you are paying too much attention to your tykes, thus, not allowing aspiration decay.
Carida:
Could be either or to be honest. I've already had three games go up in flames.
But thinking of these specific toddlers, after they were taught to walk, talk, potty, they were pretty much left in their room to amuse themselves how they like and only sought out to be changed. So it could be that the game was broken.
At this point, both toddlers are gone as I've started fresh hoping that such doesn't occur again.
I had this happen with a whole family. Toddlers, adults, teens. All perm platinum. And it won't go down. At this point I won't choose a second aspiration just to keep it from happening. Also seems to be the only way it doesn't.

In an earlier post you stated you wanted 'miserable children', so don't teach them to walk, talk, and so-on.
As for the strategy of "I'm-not-going-do-this-or-that-ingame-because-it's-broken", it stinks.
If you've blown up three games already, and perhaps a fourth, are you not ready to learn how to NOT blow it up?
Your game is buggy, so fix it. A MATY member claimed It had a NH into it's 12th. generation.
Personally, I'd rather have 12 gens. rather than start over every time my NH is getting well established.

Is that TimeClock updated for your most recent EP?
There was someone else a while ago complaining that her toddlers were hitting Platinum Life Time Aspiration, she had also extended the time her sims spent as toddlers. In her case it was a problem of satisfying too many wants - if she let her toddlers be miserable (or if she hadn't extended the toddler stage) then they wouldn't have hit permaplat as toddlers.
Part of the problem would also be the gain x skillpoint, gain x+1 skillpoint wants that toddlers can now roll, so they sit there continually skilling and gaining aspiration/LTA. Perhaps you could try giving them only non-skilling toys, and don't teach them to walk or talk. They earn LTA for learning to walk/talk/potty even if they don't currently have a want for it. If they currently have a want when they learn these skills, they get an additional LTA boost from the aspiration boost for satisfying the want.

Since Free Time sims can hit permaplat in three ways. Hitting their LTW (which they don't get until teens), maxing out their LTA meter (introduced in FT), or from a genie wish. Carida's problem is that her toddlers are hitting permaplat the second way. It is possible to do so if you extend the toddler stage, satisfy their wants, and keep their aspiration high most of the time.
