Default Disappearing homework
My Sim's homework keeps disappearing the second they get off the bus. I have a family of three teens. Here's what happens:
The first teen gets off the bus. They pull out the report card and look at it. In the middle of gazing at it, the bus blips out of existence and the teen is no longer holding the report card, and the two other teens are somewhere else on the lot. In this case, they were having a pillow fight.
Because of this, they cannot put down their homework, so their grades drop. Everyone who has played the Sims 2 knows what happens when grades drop: Social Worker.

This started happening after I downloaded a new set of custom content. So, I decided to look through my content with the Clean Installer, and I removed anything that was labelled harmful. This did not change anything.
I have Googled this issue and have found no solution. Am I doomed?

EDIT: The solution is in the replies! I'd like to give a special thanks to joandsarah77 for finding the solution.

Is there a parent anywhere? it could be the 'get parent' bug. if the parent is on another lot, turned into a townie the game looks for the parent to show the homework too and not finding one it jumps. There is a fix for that, I think on SimBology. The SW couldn't care less about teens, they can fail out for all she cares. She only takes babies, toddlers and kids.

Hm, maybe that's an issue. While there adults there, neither of them are the parents, if I remember correctly. I killed the parents. (The family was is just a goofy family I made with a friend and myself.)
