Bug/Issue [SOLVED] Unable to interact with my children

The only stage of my son's life I was able to interact with him was when he was standing on the crib and I could throw him in the air like a good father I am. After he grown up from that stage I was unable to give gifts or interact with him at all. He is currently in the final toddler stage and just completely ignores my existence.

I wonder if there is any save file tweak I could do to fix this, since it doesn't seem like a lot of people is experiencing the same.

 

In my game, the kid is a toddler (stage 4 per wiki) but I can't give any gifts yet. A heart will pop-up when I first talk to her in a day but that's it. Just to clarify, you don't receive any heart pop-up when 'talking' to your kid?

I really need to get around to perusing save-game file editing since I don't know anything to help you. Follow the Save File Editing Guide and search for various words related to the subject matter (child, child's name, etc.)

 

Nothing, no hearts popping up, the affection doesn't increase. I tried tweaking the affection value on the save file to see if that was gonna change anything, but it had no effect.
I avoid tweaking values that I don't know what they are for...

Perhaps you could help me by sharing what your save file looks like in the character section of your child? So I could compare?

I'd appreciate if you could.

 

I'm not at home and I won't be able to oblige for a few more hours.

 

Here you go:

Thanks for the help. The problem was mod related however, I managed to get around it after being instructed to run a day without mods and save the game.
