I've had one toddler grow up in gold, and one in green; both still had the faster learning skill, and using the eye in the sky, I found out that both still had their smart milk stuck. Platinum might have an effect, but one observation does not a research make.
Actually, the scientific method for proof demands consistently non-negative results. Your observation there, for example, conclusively proves beyond doubt that the platinum mood does *not* have an effect on the "sticky" smart milk. Proving that something *does* have an effect, however, requires a lot of careful study.
FroggySim:
I wouldn´t think that growing up in platinum mood *always* results in a smarter kid, as I´ve just grown up triplets in platinum mood and only two of them have the smart milk stuck.
Therefore they do learn faster than their little brother (poor thing...). I tried with their first cooking point as cooking is not related to any personality, and the two kids with the stuck milk finished earlier.
(As for the amount of smart milk: each toddler got 4 bottles...).
Well, if platinum really had been what caused it, they should all be smart.

Well, being in the sciences too, I am aware that scientific research also demands reproducible results with the same method, so as far as platinum mood and smart sims are concerned, you are correct.
Lovely green sandwich, by the way dizzy2 :D

Im sorry but my computer is broken...well the one that can play the sims, and so i cant test it. But this is what I ment
Growing up in Platunim, Gold, Green, or Red might affect the learning skill IF the smart milk is not stuck. Try testing it, but withought feeding the toddler smartmilk.

Nope, growing up Platinum has no effect on learning skill. I have had MANY toddlers grow up platinum (this isn't hard to do) and if they've never received smart milk, they will not learn any faster than normal. The only thing that causes them to learn at accelerated speeds is the "stuck smart milk" as described by Pescado. That's because this is a "bug" and not really intended to happen. You can see this when using the baby controller and clicking on "Test IQ." A child with a stuck smark milk attribute will have an IQ of 300 while a normal child will have a base IQ of 100. This has consistently been proven over and over in my game. The toddler must transition with their IQ still at 300 because once they turn into a child, you lose the ability to feed smart milk and can never get it back. I haven't tested it much in Nightlife, but Maxoid Tom said the stuck smart milk bug was supposed to be fixed. I haven't had a chance to test this out, but I'm going to be having a new batch of toddlers soon to check it out.
