Windows 10: Switching a minor’s account to an new parent account, without access to the old associated...

I am trying to set up my son as part of Family Safety but it says his account is already part of another family. It is probably from an old email address that i no longer have access to. How can i switch my child to my new email account without having access to the old account. Working through My Son’s account it says that he is a minor and changes cannot be made to the account.

The new feature was added yesterday to the WoW account managment. With parental control you can manage when the account will be accessible. In my opinion this feature was added because of the recent law problems of Blizzard.
Here is what Blizzard says about it :

Xbox one parental control problems

Hi AderallAdmiral,

Xbox One safety features enable you to control what kinds of content each of your family members can access on Xbox One by providing parental controls to child Xbox account.
To give you an idea, child Xbox accounts needs to have a parent Xbox account associated to give parental controls. If your account is requesting a parental control, there's a possibility that your account is a child Xbox account which is added
to the Xbox Family on the old Xbox One. Regarding your concern, let's try to confirm if your account is a child account or an adult account. Kindly sign into
https://account.microsoft.com, then go to
Family tab. You should be able to see the parent account associated.

If the parent account associated is available, I suggest that you sign in the parent Xbox account on the console to allow your child Xbox account to make a purchase or play multiplayer. You may refer to this
link as your guide on how you can manage the privacy and online safety settings of the child Xbox account.

If your account is already an adult Xbox account and no parent account associated, I suggest that you change your privacy and online safety by signing on to your Xbox account on the Xbox One and perform the following steps:

• From Home, go to Settings > All Settings.
• Under Privacy & online safety, select Xbox Live privacy.
• Choose a default, or customize your settings by selecting View details & customize.
• Restart your console once you're done.

Keep us updated with the results after performing the suggested solutions above.
