this year when my mom got an iPhone i set it up under my apple id because i thought it would be easiest. However, our contacts have merged and photos. Not to mention iCloud is filled with both of our information. Very annoying!! Is it possible to change the iPhone to have her own apple id and her own iCloud account without totally erasing her or my account?
Thanks for your feedback
create a new apple id for her.
Then go to settings - iTunes/app store - sign out and sign in with her account.
Settings - icloud - delete the account and sign in with her new account.

Using your Apple ID for Apple services

Sep 18, 2014 3:33 PM in response to razmee209by arcfst,So her contacts will get deleted?
How can i keep those? that's the most important thing for me to keep

Sep 18, 2014 3:35 PM in response to arcfstby razmee209,they will get delete from her phone, but since you two are sharing apple id - it will be sync to your icloud account.
www.icloud.com - sign in - contacts - do you see her contacts.
IF you do, then she will have to manually add back her contacts under her new icloud account.

Sep 18, 2014 3:43 PM in response to arcfstby razmee209,That program would've been icloud, but since she is under your icloud so are her contacts.
