    Cannot Create Account For My Child On Xbox One


    I would like for my 6 year old son to have his own account on XBOX ONE, but it is asking for email address and he does not have one. I have tried logging into my Microsoft/Xbox Live accounts to add a child, but cannot find a way to do it. This is way too
    complicated.

    My objectives are as follows:

    1. Create a Gamertag for my 6 year old son

    2. Connect him to my XBOX Live account

    PLEASE HELP!!!!

    :)

  2. Child is missing in Xbox Online but present in Microsoft Family

    I added the account for one kid some time ago and for another one - today. 2nd one - works as described.

    In the first case it's all corrupted.

    I cannot see the 1st "child" gametag in mu XBox privacy settings.

    But, even if I remove the 1st "child" from the "family", he still cannot edit XBox settings.

    I removed/re-added child account from the family, but nothing changes.

    As a software developer I recon this cannot be fixed on my side, so I'll wait 2-day in case some DB replication is needed, and most probably I will have to create completely new account for my kid.

    Changing adult account status to child

    You cannot change an account from an adult to a child account however you can assign a Passkey to the account. This can prevent him from making unauthorized purchases when you're not around

    https://support.xbox.com/en-US/my-account/security/create-xbox-one-passkey


    Otherwise to have a child account you'd need to make him a new account.

    Was this resolved? I'm having the same issue, it keeps telling me to add an adult and I've signed in multiple times but it keeps telling me that I need to add an adult in order to add a child.

    child account

    You cannot change the account created as an adult account down to a child account. It needed to be created as a child account from the get go.
