Windows 10: How to remove any parent controls when you dont have access to the email

Hi I am trying to download some anti virus protection and this wont work as its saying a family member needs to approve this. I can see at the time my email was set up and was under parent control however, I am now 24 my date of birth reflects this in my account. I have left the family group but this still wont work. The email the parent controls was set up with is no longer active and I also dont have contact with that person. How can I resolve this?

There is no parental control for approving incoming emails for kids account?

Original Title: kids microsoft email accounts

Kids Accounts (WINDOWS 10) - There are no parental control for approving incoming emails for kids account. There are no pre-authorized setup option for kids email contacts. I thought perhaps only authorized individuals on the child's email list for sending
& receiving emailing messages both incoming and going would be under parental controls as a safety option. But, I ran a test and it seems anyone with access to the kid's email address can send that child an email. This is not safe at all. Emails can contain
inappropriate attachments from other kids as well. I thought perhaps parents had control and can setup an approved email contacts list and contents are preapprove by parents before it is visible to the child and vice versa for outgoing email as well. Devices
are controlled, and monitored in reports, however, who is controlling the authorization of contacts & contents to communicate on that device with that child??? as parents have no control options? I like the device monitoring with control offered. Perhaps,
I may have overlook something in the email safety for kids or is this really a standard email for all? We need control options over contacts for under a child's security and protection as well. Also, the Local account (without email option) does not ask
for an age. - I would suppose the entry might be regarded as an adult?
