adding user accounts for children

The customer:

"It is overbearing for Microsoft to require children to either have an e-mail or phone number"

The (unhelpful technician):

"I suggest you to follow the steps how to create the child account as below and check if it helps.

• Press Windows key and select settings.
• Click on Account and select Family and other users.
• Then click add someone else to this pc and select add child’s account
• Enter the child’s email address and click on Next."

This is becoming such a trend. Please read the details that someone has gone to the trouble of providing so that you can respond HELPFULLY.

How do I turn off Microsoft Edge news feed on my children's accounts??

How do I turn off Microsoft Edge news feed on my children's accounts! It's impossible to follow the steps provided as the task bar isn't available in a child's profile and I've been able to turn it off on my profile but it's not transferable to my children's profiles. They shouldn't have access to News Feeds with no option to turn it off. Instructions please!
