If you can't or don't use mods, you can use the Friendly interaction "Ask To Just Be Friends" and that gets rid of the romance and doesn't harm the friendship at all. (Ew. But I can tell you from my own "teen joined romantic convo and was suddenly a love interest" experience that it works!)
Or yes, you can use a mod to destroy the relationship. UI cheats will zero out the romance bar, but I think it'll always exist at 0, like Ask To Just Be Friends. MCCC you can destroy and recreate the relationship but you'll lose all your sentiments, etc.
It's awful.

I know, I just hate the fact that I have to ask my daughter to just be friends. its such an uncomfortable scenario i don't even want to fix it cuz that Love bar will always be there >.>
like "oh yeah, the love bar, that's from a super dark chapter, we don't talk about it "

I'm having this problem as well. I don't play with mods, so for me, it's not something caused by mods or can be fixed. I've just had to either delete the parent sim and cheat them back to where they were after replacing a fresh copy, or quit the save and reload. I see this happening when one of the parents flirts/serenade the other parent.

still have no idea what happened but i took my sim family on a vacay and had the two parents flirt. the toddler joined the conversation, i was also watching a show so i wasn't really paying attention. I looked up and saw the toddler stretch to get tall in a weird way and i hovered over her while being the mom sim and a romance bar popped up??? this never happened before

How often does the bug occur? Rarely (0% - 9%)
What is your current game version number? SDX: 4.0
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Free stuff, GtW, SD, Spooky, DO, CL, GF
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I am honestly not sure how this happened. I suppose the parents had a romantic dialogue around the toddler and somehow the toddler got involved.
What happens when the bug occurs? There is a romantic interest bar between the toddler and parent (dad)
What do you expect to see? No romantic interest between parent and child. I know it’s something that happens in real life but I’d rather not have this as something in the game. So pleeease fix this
