Leave microsoft family account without a parent in the family organizer

Hi, im stuck in a family group, and i can't leave it without a family organizer, which makes sense, but.

My family organizer left the family, and now im stuck in the family with child safety turned on. As an example, i can't play Minecraft multiplayer anymore because i switched my mojang account to microsoft. I can't leave the family or allow myself to turn off child safety, im not a minor anymore, so its really frustrating not being able to use my microsoft account properly, can your management remove me from the family or just do anything to allow me to use online functions in a normal way without having some child filter turned on?

 

Family Organizer Leaving Family Group

Hello Lee Wilfert,

Glad to see you in Microsoft Community.

• If Mother was the administrator of the Family Group, you can exit the Family Group directly, and Mother will automatically become the Family Group organizer.
  
  If you want to stay in the Family Group, you need to rejoin, either as an administrator or as a regular Family Group member.
  
  Visit Getting started with Microsoft Family Safety for more details.
  

• If Mother was already a member of the Family Group, you need to remove her from the Family Group, then add it again, and need to select "Administrator" when selecting the role.
  

Meanwhile, you can dissolve the Family Group, and then let the new organizer send an invitation to re-establish the Family Group. Visit Leave family group or remove members (microsoft.com) for more details.

If anything is unclear, please do not hesitate to let me know.



Best Regards,

Family Organizer Leaving Family Group

I'm family organizer and want to turn this over to mother of children. Mother is organizer in the family group. I went to child's account, clicked on drop down and selected "remove consent". Warning that follows concerns me. "They will no longer have permission to access certain MS sites....." Can't I just turn over the family organizer role to the mother?
