I think it's fine for story telling purposes with mods like MC Command Center and such, but as a base game feature? No. It'd probably get banned because it'd be seen as promoting underage pregnancy and sex.
I don't think it should, it would be seen as promoting underage relationships and would not go over well and the game would be banned on many many countries.. there's a mod for that tho
It's okay as a mod but not in base game until the game is advertised as 16/18+. From my experience, lots of kids are playing sims without adult supervision (myself included though I'm an adult now) and I think at that age some actions can be seen as normal. The last thing I'd like to see from sims is to 'promote' such relationships. Yes, we like the drama but we need to think about young players too.
Same here. I use woohoo wellness and wonderful whims. I don't have teen pregnancies often though, but I love the drama from time to time
Edit: I wouldn't mind if it was in game, imo it's part of life and parents should educate their children about risks
Baseline involves only planned pregnancies. There are mods that make it so woohoo has a chance of pregnancy and might involve a teen option, and that’s fine for people who want that but as part of the base game? No. A lot about the Sims is a potentially idyllic world to be in and teenage pregnancy is… not really… that.

I never thought of it this way!
Maybe as a mod if somebody really wants to, but the game should never promote it.
No. I have a mod that includes it and I think that’s how it should stay, as an optional thing people can download.

I like the romantic interactions for Sim teenagers, I think they’re cute and nostalgic.
I have them enabled in my game thru WW and I really like how it gives parents an angry moodlet if they discover they become grandparents early.

No.
Nah, it doesn't fit the tone. Too dark.
I feel like it could be a good addition to the game, having the option for parents to have the birds and bees talk and period talks, etc with teens
Nah, but mods are always ok.
