Unless you are the organizer, all you can do is leave Family Sharing using the steps in the article below. If your plan is to leave and then rejoin, you may not be able to rejoin immediately.


Family Sharing - Leave.  *


If you are trying to make a purchase not using the organizer's credit card, buy/redeem Apple Gift cards to the account. Charges will be deducted from the account balance before the organizer's credit card is charged.
