Can I, and if so, how do I enable live streaming for my teenage son?

Hello, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

If you want to enable live streaming for your teen on an Xbox Series S using Twitch and you have parental controls set up in Microsoft Family, here's how you can do it:

Make sure you have an adult account: To enable live streaming for your child, you must have an adult account in Microsoft Family. If you don't already have an adult account, you can create one by following the instructions on the Microsoft website.

Access Microsoft Family settings: Sign in to your adult account and access Microsoft Family settings. This can be done through the Microsoft website or through the Xbox Family Settings app.

Add your child to the family: If you haven't already added your teen to the Microsoft Family, you'll need to do so. Follow the instructions provided on the Microsoft website or in the Xbox Family Settings app to add your child to your family.

Set up content restrictions: In Microsoft Family settings, make sure content restrictions are set appropriately to allow live streaming. Verify that "Allow live streams" is enabled for your child's account.

Check privacy settings on Twitch: In addition to settings in Microsoft Family, you may also need to adjust privacy settings on your child's Twitch account. Make sure the privacy and security options on Twitch allow live streaming for your account.

If you've followed all the steps above and your child is still receiving an error message when trying to set up live streaming, there may be a specific technical or configuration issue.

Please remember that live streaming may be subject to age and privacy restrictions, and it is important to make sure your child is compliant and has appropriate supervision while live streaming.

Thank you for your kindness and understanding! Please feel free to let me know if you need anything else.

Best regards.

What is appearing when you go into the linked social accounts tab ?
Press the Xbox button  on your controller to open the guide.
Go to Profile & system > Settings > Account > Linked social accounts.

Hi, thanks for your suggestions. Yes, I've done all of those things. To be more specific, what I think I'm needing, and currently missing, is the Discord option in the friends/party chat menu.

I have created his Discord account and, using the Discord website, linked it with his Xbox account but it's not showing on the Xbox itself.

Thanks again

Hi,! I'm Luis, a fellow Xbox Gamer . Thanks for reaching us out here.

Have you enabled the cross netowrk play setting as well?

Account > Privacy & online safety > Xbox privacy > View details & customize > Communication & multiplayer.

Make sure that You can join cross-network play is set to Allow, and You can communicate outside of Xbox with voice & text is set to Everybody.

Also, is your son´s account above 13 years?

Because Children under age 13 can't use Discord.

That was what I meant lol price of living is skyrocketing. Going to get even more expensive my daughter is about to hit 16 in a couple of months and my son is about to hit 13 so YAY another teenager in the house lol
