    Hi Blake,

    Thank you for reaching out!

    My name is Stefano, a Microsoft fellow user like you, and it’s my pleasure to assist you today.

    As very first step:

    • Go to https://account.microsoft.com/family
    • Log in with your Microsoft account.
    • Under Your family, remove every child/adult listed (if any).
    • Remove yourself from any family group you’re part of (as a child or adult).
    • If you’re still listed under “Organizer” or “Member,” remove the group entirely.

    Please, see also those threads about the same topic:

    Keep me posted if it worked or we will deeper investigate your request.

    Regards,

    Stefano
