I have a silly toddler who has had all of her skills maxed out for a while now. Ever since she had her movement skill maxed to level 5 she would always do the arms out toddler run any time she had to go somewhere regardless of whether it was near, far or her current mood but I've noticed that she's started to move around as if her movement skill is lower all of a sudden. She now does a normal walk wherever she goes and when I'm playing as her and make her "run around" or she does so herself at the park/outside she doesn't run at all, she does a walk and stumble as if she has a lower movement skill. She does the same thing if I select take clothes off, instead of running around she walks and stumbles but she's just naked as she does it. The only times she actually runs anywhere now is if I select somewhere on the ground and click "run here". I've checked her skills tab, its still showing her as all of them being maximum and highlighted yellow so im not sure why this has randomly happened. I dont think there was any recent update or anything, anyone have any ideas how to fix it?

Tell a Toddler to run around? Now, they’ll actually run when the Run Around interaction is selected (wait, you have to tell a Toddler to run around?)
Fixed in Patch 1.96.365/1.71

Yeah the issue was still there last time I checked. Unfortunately I haven't had much time to play but I will try @PoptartJuniper suggestion of saving to library and putting them in a new game tonight

So I managed to get on and update the game, no luck with fixing things. Tried saving the family and dropping them in a new game, no luck either. Also, I'm not sure if its related but I've noticed she's been throwing a lot more tantrums too the which she never used to as well. The second she gets a angry she'll throw a tantrum which she hasn't done since her thinking skill was low, before this issue once she reached level 5 for thinking she never really threw them autonomously unless she reached very angry or enraged moods

I have been having this exact same issue. Also with pets, as you noted. My toddlers or pets will just walk and only run when used with the specific commands. It is quite annoying, as it wastes a lot of time and my sims when calling them can only just sit there and do nothing
