    Microsoft family - change Childs date of birth


    Hi all


    how can I change the date of birth of a child in my microsoft family account. I'm stuck in a loop of selecting "manage my child's profile information" then to the "manage permissions" page - which tells me that in some places only adult members of the 'family' can alter information.


    Below this is a link to 'view your family settings' which takes me back to the microsoft family 'homepage' for our family


    How can I fix this


    Roz

    :)

    Change my date of birth on microsoft profile

    Hi Alex,

    To change the date of birth on your Microsoft Account, you can follow the steps below:

    • Sign in to
      Your info       on the Microsoft account website.
    • Click Edit your personal info.
    • Select the correct date of birth, and then select Save.

    If the birth date on a Microsoft account says that it belongs to a child, there are different steps to take in regions that regulate what children can do online. You can check this
    link for more information.

    Let us know how it goes.

    How to change a childs date of birth

    • We have many Windows 8.1 Computers in the Family.
    • My wife and I both have Microsoft Accounts and are assigned as Parents.
    • My two sons are age 9 and use Local Accounts that are assigned to My Family and are protected by family safety.
    • I purchased a Windows Phone 8 for my sons
    • I created a Windows Account for my sons using their actual date of birth
    • I used the boys Windows Account to setup the Windows Phone

    Everything is working very well, accept I can not enable Cortana on the Windows Phone. Apparently you need to enable Cortana in order to use the "Quite Hours" functions. Because my boys friends like to skype them at 10 o'clock at night we NEED this feature!

    My goal is to modify their Microsoft Accounts date of birth to falsely reflect they are 13 years old, allowing them to use Cortana on their phone. I have done much research on how to do this and have been around in circles on the accounts.live.com and My
    Family websites but can not find where I can change their DOB. This
    link     simply does not pan out, the instructions read to click "Permissions" which doesn't exist.

    So. How can I change my child's DOB?

    Thanks in advance for any assistance with this!
