To leave family sharing, read this --> Leave Family Sharing - Apple Support


What exactly are you trying to accomplish in the end? From the first message it sounds like you are already part of a family sharing group. You can only belong to one at any one time.


If your mother needs to send you an invitation to join her family group, she will have to send you the invitation. Read this to find out how: Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support

Read the section: "Invite people to join your family"


Also, are you under 13? Special rules apply in that case.
