Hey tumisho256,


The steps to remove someone from Family Sharing are below:

Remove someone from your family group
The family organizer can remove anyone age 13 or older* from the family group. If you need to, you can transfer a child to another family.
On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
1. Go to Settings.
2. Tap Family. If you don't see Family, tap your name, then tap Family Sharing.
3. Tap the name of the family member that you want to remove.
4. Tap Remove [your family member's name] from Family.
5. Remove [family member's name] from Family is located below Location Sharing.
On your Mac
In macOS Ventura or later:
1. Choose Apple menu  > System Settings, then click Family.
2. Click the name of the family member that you want to remove.
3. Click Remove [your family member's name] from Family. 
4. Remove [family member's name] from Family is located below their Apple ID.
5. Click Remove [your family member's name] to confirm. 
In macOS Monterey or earlier:
1. Choose Apple menu  > System Preferences, then click Family Sharing.
2. Click Details next to the name of the family member that you want to remove.
3. Click Remove [your family member's name].


If you're unable to remove the member after taking those steps, where specifically in the process do you run into an issue? Also, is there any sort of error or message?


Cheers!
