When my kids want to play Sims4, but the parent want to play another game!

[venusiantemplar]

What shall I do? My kids have Sims4 installed on the same account as me (parent)! Have the issue when I play for example Apex Legends and in a match, when my kids go online with origin and they overide origin on their computer. 

Is there a way to transfer a game to a new account or have origin some sort of family solution?

What shall I do? In either case how should i proced?

@venusiantemplar  There's no way to split an account in two, or to transfer games from one account to another.  So if you want your kids to have their own Origin account with Sims 4 on it, you'll need to buy the game again.  (Also, sharing an account is technically against EA's terms of service, just fyi.)

What you can do though is have your kids play offline.  If the computer they're using doesn't have an internet connection, Origin should automatically put itself into offline mode, or you can login and then manually enable offline mode yourself.  The Gallery will be off-limits, but otherwise, Sims 4 itself will run exaclty the same in offline mode.
