Mod for creating child only in CAS?

Is there a mod that lets you create a child only in CAS to place in the sim bin so it can be added to a household without you needing to create an adult sim to go with it?

The "sim bin" is strictly internal to CAS. I think you mean what we usually refer to the "household bin," that which can be viewed within Edit Town? As far as I know, no there needs to be at least a teen to act as head of household even if only as a temporary placeholder for the part where the sims are created.

Yeah, I meant the household bin you save the sims to so they can be viewed in Edit Town. Aw, that sucks. I know I could use a random older sim and then kick it out/ use Total Annihilation, but I hate to do that. =/ Oh well.

HAHA  Isn't is silly that we feel that way? I mean, it's not as if they are sentient or even remotely real, but I feel bad sometimes totally Annihilating sims. (unless they tick me off....muhahahha! ;))

I agree though, I just posted something in a other thread that I wish EA would allow us to create our own sims from the loading screen and not have to start a new game just to make a new sim or family!  I have created a few in game using out-of-towners and MC CAS, but it's not the same really.

This might fall into the "be careful what you ask for" category, even if it's only theoretical at this point. If we could get into CAS without a saved or new game having loaded, then MC and its settings would not have had a chance to load either and we would be looking at EA's version of CAS. That means MC Integration wouldn't be functioning either, so no extensions for additional sliders, no Compact View, parts blacklists, no relief from category filters, no Expanded Tattoo, etc., all the things that the MC version of CAS does for us wouldn't be there anymore on such a session.
