I have the same problem, my sim is a doctor and mum a stay-at-home. Since the upday a couple of days ago, I cannot get rid of the celebrity walk either, which I hate, so disregarded that family, and now my Sim Dad can't take family leave. The game is getting so many bugs, it is driving me nuits.

This is still broken, because of the career test check for the actor career in the tuning file. So unless a Sim is in the acting career, then family leave isn't going to work. Why on earth, this career check was put in, I have no idea. It surely was a mistake.

Simple typo maybe?

I think the career test is meant to exist, because actors choose their own gig schedule and don’t need family leave.
But it’s missing a line that makes it apply only to actors, so instead the behaviour is reversed and it applies to everyone except actors.

I'm experiencing the same bug
My sim is in the writing career. Thank goodness for free daycare.

My sims are experiencing the same. They got the notice that they can take family leave but the option isn't available anymore. The female sim is in the medical career and the male sim is in the entertainer career. Though I don't think it has anything to do with the sims career. I think this is something that needs to be fixed.

I used to be able to take family leave.
Now I can't.
My female is a SAHM and the dad works in social networking. I have the same problem with other families as well. They get the option that "Joe" can now take family leave, but when he goes to his phone all he has on his phone is take a vacation, find or quit job.
I don't want to use his vacations days. I see that this is a known bug but it's been going on for several months now.
I even just did a patch update this afternoon and it still hasn't been fixed.
So when will be fixed?

I agree, this really has been going on for a long time now. I actually remember having this bug for longer than just November... In this thread there are many people, whos' sims have different careers.
The most annoying thing is that you can't get around this issue by going on the computer, the only option is the phone.

So question to everyone:
- Which career is your Sim in ?
Mother is a scientist, father is in Entertainment.
