There's two places i'm looking at to manage these settings in both the adult and child account.ġ) Online, logged in to the respective child or adult Microsoft accountĢ) Offline/local settings, via the start/settings/family and other users I don't know what the procedure is if you use the parent's email address. Click Use your email insteadĭid you set the child account up with the child's email address? JohnC is correct that you have to sign into the child's email account and accept the invite. Ticking child will then show a link for The person I want to add doesn't have an email address.Ĭlicking that link allows the parent to use the parent email instead. When you go to Settings/Accounts/Family and other users the first screen is where you can add a family member.Ĭhoosing that option will then show a screen where you choose add an adult or a child. If your child does not have an email address there is an option to set up the child account using YOUR email address. The email address you used when adding the child was the child's email address, correct?. You add the child's email address and then login to the child's email account to accept the invite. Just to confirm, according to the link the child needs their own email address account with Microsoft.
