How do we change a child's account to a teen account?

Hey there -

It sounds like you're wanting to alter some of the privacy permissions on your son's account. We have information here regarding the

privacy/security settings available. You will need to log into the family's admin account to alter the settings on your son's account.

Let us know if you have any further questions.

Hi! Are you have a child or teen account on xbox console? Here is how to change

the privacy and online safety settings

Hi there,

No there isn't, even if you change his account to teen and change the gamer picture then change his account back to a child, the custom pic will delete immediately. It's a good idea to do what StuartATrueRed has suggested

Thank you!

This means your account is a child/teen account. Xbox account age can not be changed as it is permanently connected to the first date of birth entered when creating your microsoft account. This can't be changed even by xbox support. Your account will be
promoted to an adult account when that original birth date reaches 18 (19 in Korea). You can change your microsoft account age but that doesn't change your xbox account age.

If your xbox account is a child/teen account, you will need an adult to create an account, invite you to a family group and change some privacy settings for you - although there is no setting to allow a child to upload a custom gamerpic before they're 18.

Unfortunately, there is no fix yet.

You could do the following:

Create a new child account for your teenager, and change the password of the adult account, so the child can't access it anymore.

Make sure the adult account has set the Xbox One console the teen is playing on as the adult account's "Home Console" (In the settings under Personalization).

That way the console will share all games that belong to the adult account to every other account playing on that "Home Console".

So your teen can still play the games of the adult account, while under the restrictions of the child account.
