The higher the parenting skill is with the caregiver, more options will appear that will affect the children's character values. Children will also come to ask their parent or caregiver different questions in the form of chance cards.

However, children can ignore these punishments, negatively affecting their character values. Parents with this skill can punish their children in many ways ranging from time outs to grounding, where parents can restrict certain activities. This skill can only be learned by Sims who are young adults or older, and helps them by having more options on raising their children. One of the other big changers to children's character values is the new parenting skill. If Sims have a high or low enough level in any of the character values, they will receive special traits when they become young adults.

A toddler, child, or teen can affect their own character values by performing certain interactions, such as making a mess or setting the table. Parents can encourage or discipline their children to help develop these character values. Character values appear in the Simology panel for Sims aged toddler to teen. There are five different character values: Manners, Responsibility, Empathy, Conflict Resolution and Emotional Control. They can be either disciplined or encouraged, both affecting their journey to adulthood. Parenthood introduces character values for toddlers, children and teens, and gives parents more control over their offspring.
