Family Sharing

A long time ago I set up family Sharing. Somehow, I have created 2 accounts for 2 of my kids. Because of this I now have maxed out our allowed 6. Is there a way to move or get rid of the 2 incorrect accounts so that I may add my last child?

Welcome to the Apple community.


The only way you can remove minors from a family sharing set up is to move them to another family sharing set up. This requirement is to avoid a situation where a minor can have the old account with out any parental control.


You may wish to contact Apple iCloud support for assistance, to see if they can assist you in removing a minors account.
