I am having the same issues. Both of my toddlers' parents are young adult vampires with level 10 parenting skill. They constantly check on the toddlers, but all they really do is disrupt the toddlers' action, and possibly pick them up and put them down without actually helping.

I did not see this on the list that was listing on the patch. I was hoping this was on the list of it being fixed but not sure if they fixed this or not and maybe forgot to add it, either way I hope they get this fixed if not in the August patch, hopefully next month.

I just tried today and I have the August patch for Xbox and it is still broken. I tried:
So still not fixed.

I was really hoping this would be fixed when I checked simsvip and saw there's ANOTHER freaking patch less than a month after the last one. I really wish EA would get their sh together and stop releasing new packs that break the game every single time. So over this game.

This bug also causes toddler attention to be super low. They used to get attention when the caregivers would help them with actions. Now, it's super hard to keep attention up because when a toddler talks to someone, it doesn't count unless that sim is a caregiver. Since caregivers don't help toddlers with actions, there's less interaction between them causing attention to be constantly low. Toddlers still get attention talking to stuffed animals, so why not any sim?

What is your current game version number? 1.65.77.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Island living, realm of magic, university, get to work, seasons, pets, get together, spa day, dine out, vampires, get famous, parenthood, outdoor retreat, bunch of stuff packs
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? When an adult/young adult clicks on a toddler block set, or potty
What happens when the bug occurs? When you click 'help stack' or 'help with blocks' or 'potty train' the action disappears and the toddler does not get the skill boost from the adult.
What do you expect to see? The adult should be able to teach the toddler how to stack,build blocks or potty train without the action disappearing

Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No
Please fix this bug

Same happens to me. Parents just walk away from toddler and toddler carries on using the potty or blocks etc.
