Location sharing with family members

When I go to Settings/Apple ID/Family Sharing/Location Sharing, the toggles for Share My Location With are grayed out so I cannot activate sharing with family members. When I go to Settings/Apple ID/Find My, Share My Location is toggled on but again grayed out (along with the Family Sharing settings) so it cannot be changed. What's going on?

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 17

● If an app or feature on your device is not working, not appearing, or is restricted (grayed out), a frequent reason is it may have been disabled using Screen Time, or by an IT administrator if you are using a device owned by an employer or educational institution.

- Read this support article If your Apple ID or other options are greyed out in Settings —> If your Apple ID is greyed out in Settings - Apple Support


Tap Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy > scroll to Allow Changes and turn on.


- If the device is managed (Settings > General > VPN & Device Management), contact the IT department that is doing the managing.
