XBox One w kids. Horrible experience so far

I removed the Kinect sign in option for all of us. It was a real pain in the rear. Anytime someone walked behind you going to the other room they got signed in. The blocker is nice but I tend to leave it off.

I thought the Kinect was supposed to detect what person was holding a controller and save games to that profile accordingly?

Aside from Enen, I feel like I'm being ignored here. You DO NOT need to turn off your Kinect - simply change your sign in settings so it doesn't sign you in with the Kinect. That's it! You can do that by going to your profile-specific privacy settings. Sure
it means you'll have to sign in manually, but you can still use the Kinect for voice commands, even to say, "Xbox, sign in as [insert account name here]."

your problem is your blocking the kinect. if your kid is using the controller and the kinect sees him it'll go under his account. If not you have to manually tell the console its him playing because how else would the console know?

Listen to what GalacticGeek wrote. Also, games like Madden (or any game made by EA) and anything made by Ubisoft are going to require you to sign in to their own crap servers. Welcome to 2015 gaming.

Pretty sure if u designate YOUR profile as HOME, and dont designate theirs at all as anything, they can sign in on their own and use ur games. Disconnecting kinect may help, but is not compulsory...
