My son has become an adult. I want to move my son's xbox account to his own email address....

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you with your concern.

I apologize but there is no option to move an Xbox profile from one Microsoft account to another.

What you can do is to change the primary alias but this may complicate the current primary alias which is your Microsoft email address.

My son has his own account, which is connected to my email...and my other email is strictly work

It sounds as tho the account, son's (gamertag) setup on the XBox is an adult account using your email assigned to your Microsoft account.

What needs to happen is an adult xbox account (think gamertag) needs to be setup with your adult email used for Microsoft account and then use the family setup and make your childs gamertag on the XBox a child account not an adult account.

Thanks for the response. My problem is I wish to continue to use my own email address and account apart from the Xbox live piece. My son wants to use his own email for the Xbox going forward.

Thanks for the quick answer!

When I'm on my account's page, I can see my family group which only consists of my son and myself. My son's account has its own email address. I'm listed as adult, my son as child. Doesn't this suffice? Or is there any way to officially declare myself as
a parent? If so, I haven't found it yet.

Hi there! This is Virginia O.

I understand that you want to change the email address on son's account.

I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

The easiest way to change the email address on your son's account is to add a alias to his Microsoft account.

Wherein this allows your son to sign in using his own email while keeping all his Xbox purchases, achievements, and data intact.
