    Is it not possible to share individual sub-folder under \Users?


    I was able to do what you want by unsharing Users and then sharing the individual folder, e.g. Stuff
    Select Network on your computer (the one that needs Users unshared), then select the same computer from list, Right click on the Users folder and select properties.
    Select Sharing and then advanced sharing. Uncheck Share this folder. Select OK. You may get a message afterward regarding find folder, just select ignor.
    Then go to the folder you want to share and select Sharing and add Everyone (or whomever) to the shared list. Use the advanced sharing option or it will re-share Users.
