Hello ClaytonHealy,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

For this concern, it is best to check the game support guidelines on how to manage a child account. Please check this step below and see if you have already tried this:

FAMILY GROUP MULTIPLAYER FEATURES

If a member of your family group wants to play multiplayer features in Minecraft, such as Minecraft Dungeons and Minecraft Realms, an organizer can adjust these settings by using the Xbox Family Settings app.

1. Sign in to the app with an organizer’s Microsoft account, and then do one of the following to get to Settings:
   
   • Select the tile for the member’s account that you want to manage, and then select the Settings icon in the top-right corner of the Family screen.
     
   • Select the Settings icon at the bottom of the Family screen, and then select the tile for the member’s account that you want to manage.
     
2. Select Manage Minecraft under Content restrictions.
   
3. If Minecraft is rated above a member’s age limit, enable Allow gameplay under Enable Minecraft to grant the member an exception to play it.
   
   • Enable Multiplayer to let a member play Minecraft with others online, even if their account settings block them from multiplayer features.
     

You can revoke this access at any time by repeating these steps. For more info about configuring settings for members of your Xbox family group, see: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/family-online-safety/family-settings-app/manage-child-content-in-the-Xbox-Family-Setting-app

Note: You can find additional parental settings at https://account.xbox.com/settings. 

The Xbox Family Settings app is an easy way for adults to manage their children’s gaming activities on Xbox consoles and PC. You can modify your family group settings and access additional parental controls for your children from the app. See Xbox Family Settings App for more information.

While I have read this page numerous times, I cannot for the life of me find the page that says manage parental consent and enable multiplayer on minecraft.
