This may be a dumb question, but how do i set the childhood focus for one of my children/fosterlings?
I am able to choose a focus just well when i am the child myself, but cant find a way to do so if i am the guardian.

Do i need the Conclave DLC in order to do this? If so, why is the new function already there when i am the child myself?

Yes, you do need Conclave. I have no idea why it's possible for a child to set it without the DLC. Perhaps it's a bug.

Same problem as the OP - Can only set childhood focus when I play as the child myself.

Annoying that part of the mechanic is in the base game, but the rest isn't (That, or it's a bug).

Base game ? Rather Way of Life DLC to have a focus first of all.
That's the DLC culture.
Admittedly though i'm not sure if that's really bad in this case.
I can roleplay to the idea that the kid indeed does it all by itself.

Oh, I made an error then. I run CK2 with Way of Life constantly so I guess I just assumed it was in the base game. :confused:

Thanks for the fast answers. I do run the Way of Life DLC as well, so that seems to be the reason.
But now that i think about it, i never really got any of the childhood traits, i thought it was bad luck, but maybe the function really isn't there and it's just a bug that we are able to set the focus in the first place.

By the way, does anyone know if i would be able to continue my savegame safely if i where to buy the Conclave DLC?

If you import Conclave into an existing file you'll default to a fully empowered council and won't be able to do anything.
