Delete child (14) from sharing

Hello,


My daughter is 14 and she has two Apple ID’s one is old and we want to remove this one from sharing Apple one, but it’s impossible😩.

I thought only kids under 13 were not able to be removed but it seems like kids 13+ can’t be removed either.


Can someone help me, because I don’t want to stop sharing with all 6 people to start all over again. I have a iPhone 12 Pro Max.


Thanks!


Rebecca

Yes, Apple IDs with a birthdate that makes them 13 or older can be removed from a Family Sharing group.

Follow the steps here: link-> Remove a person from Family Sharing - Apple Support


If you are having a specific issue with those steps, then explain exactly what that is.


Check the Apple ID in question, and make sure the birthdate is correctly set. Just because the user of the Apple ID is over 13, does not mean the Apple ID has a birth date that reflects this.


Also of note, is that multiple IDs for a single person should be avoided if at all possible. Its aways best to keep one Apple ID updated and accesible for each person unless a secondary is absolutely necessary for something.


Once the Apple ID is removed from the family sharing group, you may want to request its deletion, so its not still hanging around somewhere unused if its no longer needed. Link-> How to delete your Apple ID account - Apple Support
