This should help.


Note that family sharing MUST be setup first w/ you as the organizer.


Then it would appear that the date can be changed to the correct date.


Note: once it’s changed to <13 … it can NOT be altered (so don’t “experiment” with dates)

IF it doesn’t work to change to the correct date, you might have to simply create a new clild’s AppleID from “scratch.” (there are understandably some pretty “tight” restrictions on altering children’s accounts)
