mod that makes the kids able to like... do stuff?

[dlcnate1]

I figure it might not be part of RJW because I think one of the official mods does smth like it, but whenever the kids finally turn 13 and can do stuff, they have 0s in all skills and no passions or traits or anything and it's like nearly impossible to get them to be useful without skilltrainers. If they could like, read books and play when they were 3-13 it would be great, they could just spend that time playing chess and horseshoes and reading whatever educational books I have and like, grow up to be smth.

 

Dunno if that could be added to RJW or if there's another mod to do it... or if I just have to get the official mod.

Your game must be broken by a mod or something.

Check out the education mechanic for Biotech in a Wiki.

Definitely some sort of outdated mod that messes with childhood is breaking your game - or, you might just not be educating them. Do you not have desks + whiteboards? No pawns assigned to childcare? They also DO read books (specifically because reading is tied to recreation.) Make sure you're also checking their jobs, they can start haul/cleaning at 3 and at the breakpoints of 7 and 10 they are able to do more stuff from there.

Use https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1541438230 
or 
Get Biotech (the "official mod" as you call it)

PS this thread's title is extremely worrying juxtaposed to RJW.

The title had me ready to say FBI open up...

So what do we have?
 

Killing people — normal
Torturing — normal
Enslaving — normal 
Bombing, burning, poisoning, starving, squashing, flatting, raping, sending to space, feeding to pigs&rats, makin clothes from their skin — HELL YEAH ITS COOL
 

But how DARE YOU OP EVEN THINK ABOUT THAT? -1000000000 social points, +1 ticket to the hell

/sarcasm (they are just pixels, jeez)

Seems like Children, school and learning does some funky stuff with my modded colony and  rjw pregnancy though, I removed it for now. I still have to test if this is the real culprit but I saw someone writing about having the same problem and using this mod.

That's sad, it used to be the standard before biotech for handling that area of content.

I eventually got biotech and it was fine, so i figure that RJW without biotech is just kinda borked... that said... yes... the title i chose, in hindsight, was bad.
