Hi
How do I remove my 15 year old son from the family? He plays xBOX and is stopped from doing so with some games as he is still young. And his friends have sent him an game invite and he cannot see it.
I am the adult and I tried here: https://app.screencast.com/FA117DroqfsDY BUt go a message about the 'adult' has to remove my son... I am the adult, so not sure how or why I Cannot?!?!
Any help would be great

Thanks for that, so I presume this will then allow him greater access on his Xbox?
Sorry this is all double-dutch to me :)
