How do I delete a child's account from Family Sharing when we don't have access to the iPad?

I am trying to remove my son’s old iPad account from my family, however I cannot as he is 11. We have not had access to the iPad for a very long time and he has another account set up now that he uses with his iPhone. How can this be removed?

Perhaps you may be able to access all Apple iCloud items

from the login page via a browser. From there you should

be able to see any items, and hopefully log out from those

you may see are outdated, damaged, or missing.


These may also allow access via your Mac, too. Both open

pathway into access things seen by your Apple Account.


(I may have more than two; but to test these, I'd need to

log back in here and be offline, for maybe over an hour!


Find Devices - Apple iCloud - login

<https://www.icloud.com/find/>


Manage your Apple Account

<https://account.apple.com/>


[IF you enabled 2FA authentication it could be helpful.

Just in case all these are now set up to expect 2FA.]


One/both login of pages I have link, usually affects my Mac

before I'm done; but yours may be OK, since you will need

to interact with that account & look through it, logged-in.


As you helped set up the Family aspects of other dependent

accounts, (& Find My access) may be facilitate this matter.

Use Find My to locate your lost Apple device or AirTag - Apple Support


Another community Volunteer could have clearer answers.

Even though I've been part-time contributor over 10 years.

My gear is now aged, and support links online are newer.
