How do I share points to my family members?

There's not an option to share them with anyone.

Can you check the steps listed here (support.xbox.com/.../billing-points-family-pack) under "How do I share points with family members (secondary
accounts)?" heading. Is this how you are attempting to share points? Which option are you not seeing? Let me know, thanks!

It would seem to me, it's more a security thing, I hope this helps you.

You can transfer Microsoft points when in a Family Membership IceStorm from the 'parent' account to one of the child accounts in amounts of 400 I believe.

Instructions on how to do so can be found here Xbox Family Pack | Xbox LIVE Membership | Gold Family Pack - Xbox.com.
