@Valnatron Is your bed against a wall on one of the long sides ?

It is not.  Two beds have the head boards against the wall and the third is in the middle of the room, obstructed by nothing.  Each bed is different too, so they are not all the same "model" or from the same expansion / pack / base game.

@Valnatron Is this only for toddlers or also happening for children ?

Could you please edit your first post to make this only about the put to bed interaction. Use the other threads for the rest.

Thank you.

This has been happening to me as well, however it was before the November 2019 patch. I'm pretty sure it started for me after the small October patch. Sometimes reloading the game temporarily fixes it, and I can usually get my sims to put toddlers to bed by controlling the adult sim to use the interaction from toddler care instead of having the adult click on the bed.

@arterialrainbow Before this patch, it didn't work when the bed was against a wall on one side but now it doesn't seem to work at all.

[Valnatron]

Only toddlers and I have edited the post as you requested.

@Valnatron Thank you

I tested this with toddlers. When the long side is against the wall I get the blocked bubble. With the short side everything works fine.

@alanmichael1 Seems it's hit and miss now. I had a few times where it didn't work on the short side either.

The thread for the long side against wall is here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-Toddlers-can-t-be-put-to-bed-read-to-sleep-if-bed-...
