    Microsoft Family - Changing account from child to adult

    Hi Paulo,

    To edit your child account(s), we need to
    change
    the
    birthdate
    of that account or
    create/add another adult
    in your family
    account. To change the birthdate,
    you may find the instructions to this question by following the links below:


    To add another adult to your family account, kindly refer to
    Add a child account your family
    under
    To add another adult your family.

    Update us on how it goes.

    Regards.

    Something went wrong message when my child clicks join family link in the email.

    Hello,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    • Is the Child account a Microsoft account?

    The issue might be due to the age verification, hence I suggest you to verify the child’s age by logging in with child’s account on
    account.microsoft.com/family and verify the age.

    I also suggest you to refer the article
    Add members to your family group to get more information on adding members to your family account.

    Regards,

    Where can I change the age of a child account in a family?

    Need help changing DOB on child account

    Hi Robert,

    If the birth date on a Microsoft account says that it belongs to a child, there are different steps to take in regions such as the United States of America and the Republic of Korea, and other regions that regulate what children can do online. Here is what
    to do when you are a parent trying to change your child's birth date:

    • Using the parent's Microsoft account, sign in to your
      Family
      page on the Microsoft account website.
    • Select Manage my child's profile info.
    • For the child’s account that you want to change, select Edit this child's personal info and then follow the instructions.

    For additional help, you may find the instructions to this question by following the links below:


    In the meantime, try removing the account from the family list, then add them back as an adult. Refer to this
    link on how to remove members from Microsoft Family.

    Let us know if you need further help.
