Your account should have automatically changed to an adult account when you turned 18. You might want to make sure that your birthdate is set correctly in your account:

If your birthdate is correct you may be able to remove the "child" status by adding a payment method and billing information:

This worked, thank you very much.

The privacy settings are separate from the whethere the account is child or adult. If your account is set up as a child account, there might be a parent gamertag that could change your privacy settings...

Only a parental (adult account) can change the privacy settings for a child account. Your parents should open an adult account and add your child account to it.
