Windows 10: Remove child from Windows family account

I get a message that "You'll need to remove consent first". Then I have to select manage my child's profile, then select remove consent from this child's account. When I do the above I get the following screen information:

Manage permissions
In the United States, South Korea and the EU, legislation requires that children have adult consent before creating an online account. You can use this page to manage the child accounts for which you provided consent. Learn more.

Use these settings to manage your child's account.

For more ways to monitor your child's PC and online activities, view your family settings.


If I click on the link above "view your family settings". It takes me back to the family page again. Like it is stuck in a loop. It doesn't give me a link to remove the consent on my child's account.

Any assistance is appreciated.
