    Avatar Companion blocked for child account - Parent can't purchase for a kid? Seriously?

    So, my daughter wants to purchase an avatar item, Baby Groot Companion, for her avatar from the marketplace store. The item is FREE. She's blocked from doing so by MS due to being a child/teen account. Even though I am her parent, and even though I changed the family settings to allow her to purchase content and even though I have billing setup with MS, she still CANNOT purchase the item. I can't purchase it for her. Seriously?!!

    Who in their infinite wisdom decided that FREE content allowed by a parent, can still NOT be purchased by a child? Come to think of it, if this is the case, why is there no way for a parent to purchase content and gift it to a child account?

    Can't purchase free gold game. Your account is unable to make this type of purchase

    Adult account can buy anything

    Child accounts cannot make 360 purchases regardless of parental permissions from the web

    You must use a 360 console if a child account or a parental account has to make the purchase

    Xbox LIVE Parental Controls

    Hey Samantherrrrr94. I would suggest trying to download the parent profile again, however if you don't know the information, then you won't be able to redownload the profile. I would go to xbox.com/forgot and see if you can recover the email and password
    associated with the parent account.

    If you're unable to recover the parent account, I'd use the
    support.xbox.com/contact-us
    page to set up a phone support call and see if they can assist you.

    Aceman, I'd suggest the same thing. Try xbox.com/forgot to see if you can recover the parent account information. Log into the parent account and promote your child account.

    How to remove family from profile

    You can try contacting the the Xbox Chat Support.

    Just provide the Child account to them and they will verify it first, then they can be able to provide you the parent account on your child account, after that they can help you recover the account, so after you recover the account, you can finally remove
    the account from your family.

    Thanks and God Speed.

    Child Account into Adult

    I would recover your account to the other console. xbox live accounts are not transferable . . . even from child to parent. The only way to promote an account once it is created is T-I-M-E. When the account comes of age according to the age of the child
    when it was created . . you can promote it.

    Problem OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG

    Hey there Danis! First, for the security of your accounts, please do not post email address, Windows Live IDs, or other personal information on these or any forums. That said, do you know what the Gamertag of the Parent Account is? If this GT is on the console,
    you can look up the WLID under the Account settings for that profile.

    If you do not remember any of the information of the Parent Account, then unfortunately we would be unable to assist you in recovering it. In regards to the Child Account, once it reaches 18 years of age, you can simply promote the account from the console,
    and then the parental tie will be broken anyway. Let me know if this information helps, thanks you!

    Gekaufte in-Game Inhalte nicht erhalten [Purchased in-game content not received]

    Hi there,

    If you purchased the content on the parent account, then the DLC can only be accessed by the adult account. The only way the child account could access the DLC content is if both accounts are on the same Xbox and that the parent account has the Xbox set
    as the Home console. This will allow digital content owned or purchased from the parent account to be shared with the child account or other accounts on the same Xbox. The parent account will also need to allow access to this content for the child account
    due to the age rating of GTA 5.

    Full information on the Xbox Home Console feature can be found
    here
    .

    Allowing content restricted for child accounts can be done from
    https://account.microsoft.com/family/
    or on the Xbox One when the child tries to access this content.
