My child cannot send or receive text messages through her iPod. In the iPod’s settings, Message options are greyed-out. Her iPod is part of my Family Sharing group and I am the admin. Any ideas?

I am the admin for my family’s share group. My daughter cannot send or receive texts using her iPod under her Apple ID. I cannot sign her out of her device and the Message settings in her iPod are greyed-out. Which is odd because my other daughters iPod works fine. Any ideas?
