get parents mod?
does anyone have a link to the get parents mod? i believe it was on simbology(?) but that site no longer exists i think.along with the link, could someone explain to me what the mod does? i want to play a household with no parents, just teens and children. i was told that there's an issue with homework that occurs when your household has children but no parents and that i should get this mod for that issue, but i don't know what the mod itself actually does. is it just a fix mod or does it add other things?
thanks in advance

Should be over here: tunaisafish_fix_getparents.rar @ SimFileShare. As for what it does, taken directly form the Readme, and only edited for formatting:

DESCRIPTION: Fixes a global function that has been broken since The Sims 2 base game. EA attempted to fix it in Apartment Life, but just introduced another bug. BUGS/ANNOYANCES FIXED:
The function is used in many situations in the game to find the parents of a toddler, child or teen. Some of the reasons it is used is to find:-
While fixing the bugs, I noticed that the functions that called this would always favour the first parent. So, as a bonus, when both parents are found, there is now a 50/50 chance of one of them being chosen first for the interaction. The first parent returned used to be the one made first in game. So one parent in every family used to be followed more, cheered at more, etc... |

I wonder if anyone made it so the parent the child had the better relationship with was the one chosen.
