Set Family Relationships Mod
One of the features I love about MC Command Center is the ability to add relationships. It allows you to add siblings and parents to desired sims. However, you cannot add cousins, uncles, aunts, grandchildren or grandparents yet. This mod allows you to add those relationships! I use it to add cousins since the game only recognizes first cousins in the relationship panel by default.
To use the mod, click on the desired sim and click on the Set Family Relationships Menu. Here, you can add or remove relationships (parents are not included because I couldn’t get the family tree to update the way MCC grandparents and siblings worked). For example, if you click on a sim, you can make them your active sim’s grandparent by clicking “Set as Grandparent”.
To Install: Unzip the included package and script files directly into your Sims 4 mods folder.
(Only in English for now, but hope to change for future releases).

NEW ADD-ON!!!
No Romance For Family Mod
My Set Family Relationships Mod allows you to set a target sim as your sim’s sibling, cousin, aunt, grandparent, etc., but because of the way the game is coded, the romance menu still appears. This mod removes the Romance Menu for all of the following relationship types :
-parent
-son/daughter
-grandparent
-grandchild
-sibling
-step-sibling
-aunt/uncle
-niece/nephew
-cousin

The mod no longer uses any script files and relies exclusively on the XML Injector. If you are interested in the process of how I tested and fixed the mod, please watch here: https://youtu.be/cPxEEantQKY

VERY IMPORTANT UPDATE NEWS:
***THE "SET FAMILY RELATIONSHIP" MOD REQUIRES THE XML INJECTOR: https://scumbumbomods.com/xml-injector
***THE "NO ROMANCE FOR FAMILY " MOD NOW REQUIRES THE LOT51 CORE INJECTOR: https://lot51.cc/mods/core-library
Please note, the "No Romance For Family Mod" was restructured to use Lot51's injector so that it will not override any EA resources. This means it will not conflict with any other mods. Also, there is no longer separate Teen/Adult option, but you can use MC Command Center or other mods that enabled this. Again, this mod will not conflict with those.
