James,
We were able to reproduce the problem with both of the worlds you submitted.

Like you, If we makde a similar world  did not see the problem in it.

These particular models were problems because of what they were wearing, separate top and bottoms instead of a single, complete outfit.

There was a bug in the class that represents paired, individual pieces.

This bug should be addressed in the next release.

Until that next release we would recommend dressing sims in one piece outfits.

Please keep us posted,

All the best,
Don Slater

I figured out it was not freezing, but sluggish to respond, like almost 4 seconds. It happens whether you pick with the mouse in the scene, or select the object from one of the menus. Other objects in the scene are fine; just the TeenPerson is having this problem. I took one of the projects and deleted everything except the offending person, and the problem is still present, although less pronounced. You can click the ground and click back on the person to see the problem.
