    How do I turn off family safety settings?

    Hi Elliana, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    I am sorry to hear that.

    Let us review if all these options are enabled by checking your account privacy settings.

    Please, enter this site: https://account.xbox.com/settings

    On the Privacy Tab options:

    "See other people's Xbox Live profiles" > Set it to either Everyone or Friends

    "You can see and upload community creations" > Set it to either Everyone or Friends

    "You can communicate outside of Xbox Live with voice & text" > Set it to Allow

    Click Submit.

    Then, switch over to the Xbox One/Windows 10 Online Safety tab.

    Set the options bellow to Allow:

    "You can play with people outside of Xbox Live"

    "You can join multiplayer games"

    "You can add friends"

    Don't forget to click on "Submit" to save the settings.

    Let me know if it works!

    I am 21 years old. Why in gods name does it say I need parental permission?

    You can turn the Parental controls off by going to Settings, then select Family and turn off Console Safety. You might need to put in the password to do this if you still have it. Hope it helps!
