Bold Trait
- Character Values (Parenthood)- Gains some Responsibility when the trait is added in live mode (e.g. during age-up).
- Special idle animation in live mode, with the same frequency as toddler trait idles (note: idle animation you see in CAS doesn't necessarily reflect what the trait's idle will be in live mode)
- Confident walkstyle by default
- Randomly Confident moodlet
- Friends with the 'Monster Under the Bed' by default.
- Autonomy (general)- More likely to do mischief interactions
- Interaction- Play Quiet Game (non-autonomous): Target another sim and pick what all child sims participate in the game. Lasts 2 hours, uninterrupted. Raises child skills Social, Creative, and Mental. Gives Fun and Social Need.
- Interaction- Incite Domestic Defiance (non-autonomous): Target another sim and pick what all child sims listen to the speech. Lasts 30 seconds, uninterrupted. Raises child skill Social. Gives Fun and Social Need. Success results in listeners making a mess and not autonomously cleaning while the moodlet they're given is active. Failure results in negative moodlet for all parties involved.
- Interaction- Practice Looking Competent (autonomous): Appears on any mirror. Raises child skill Social. Gives Fun Need. Lowers most types of negative moodlets. Has privacy settings (can result in embarrassment if somebody walks in while it's going).
Fretful Trait
- Character Values (Parenthood)- Gains some Emotional Control when the trait is added in live mode (e.g. during age-up).
- Special idle animation in live mode, with the same frequency as toddler trait idles (note: idle animation you see in CAS doesn't necessarily reflect what the trait's idle will be in live mode)
- Sleepy walkstyle by default (can swap to Jog walkstyle with certain Inspired moodlets, such as from playing music skillfully)
- Randomly Inspired moodlet (if both Piano and Violin skill are 5 or higher)
- Moodlet Replacement- Bad playing gives a Sad instead of Embarrassed when nearby sims hear your bad playing
- Moodlet Replacement- The Inspired moodlet from interactions like 'Plunk for Inspiration' is stronger and gives the Jog walkstyle while active
- Moodlet Replacements- Cool Key Chords (Piano) and Soothing Strings (Violin) give an Inspired moodlet instead of Happy
- Interaction- Fret Studiously (autonomous): Appears on Piano and Child Violin. Functions almost identically to Practice. Mostly exists as a way to ensure that Fretful children will have some autonomy pull to use instruments, even with little to no skill.
- Interaction- Party Fun Ditty (non-autonomous): Appears on Piano if Fretful child has 8 or higher Piano skill. Raises skill Piano. Gives Fun Need. Triggers reaction; nearby sims will change into Party outfit and start dancing if there is a stereo nearby playing music that they can dance to.
- Interaction- [hidden] (autonomous): Can only activate if Fretful child has 5 or higher skill in both Piano and Violin. Once they do, this interaction should trigger fairly frequently, particularly if Fun Need is low. It gives an Inspired moodlet which changes the walkstyle to Jog and chooses an autonomous music interaction to perform if an instrument is available.
Gigglemeister Trait
Apr 21, 2020 One thing that The Sims 4 is seriously lacking is personality. Our sims don’t have enough traits to choose from and we only get to choose 3. Thankfully, there are so many creators out there making cc traits for The Sims 4 allowing you to add custom content traits to your game to really add gameplay aspects and more personality.

Compatibility
Sims 4 Anime Trait Pack
This mod may or may not require Parenthood. The only part I'm sure about is anything relating to Character Values won't happen. I figured if you're the sort of person who'll download a Child Traits mod, you'll probably be the type who'd go for the Parenthood pack. So I didn't check the overlap extensively. If you don't have Parenthood, use at your own risk.
This mod overrides a few files, which are hopefully obscure enough as to never cause conflicts:

Connection to Teen and Toddler Traits
The personality choices for this mod were designed both with my 8 Pack of Teen Exclusive Traits in mind and with the default 8 Maxis Toddler Traits in mind.
Each one corresponds to one of the Teen Traits and Toddler Traits, as follows (the idea being that when a Child Sim ages up, you can pick the trait that corresponds to continue the evolution of their special personality):
- Fussy (toddler) --> Fretful (child) --> Living Instrument (teen)
- Clingy (toddler) --> Sensitive (child) --> Emotional Conduit (teen)
- Charmer (toddler) --> Sweetie (child) --> Relentless Tease (teen)
- Inquisitive (toddler) --> Sleuth (child) --> Electric Sliderule (teen)
- Wild (toddler) --> Rocket (child) --> Perpetual Motion (teen)
- Angelic (toddler) --> Tattletale (child) --> Goody Two Shoes (teen)
- Independent (toddler) --> Bold (child) --> Frenzied Rebel (teen)
- Silly (toddler) --> Gigglemeister (child) --> Walking Punchline (teen)
