I want create family sharing settings for my son's iPad air2 using iOS 12. Can I manage those as the family organizer or parent from my Mac? It looks like I must have my own device on iOS 12 (ie another iPad or iPhone) but I haven't been able to find confirmation.
Thanks!
iMac 27", macOS 10.14
I chatted with AppleSupport, and the CS rep told me that to manage the screen time setting on my son's appleid with iOS 12 on the ipad, I can either do it on that device with my code or from another iOS device with my appleid and code. I can manage general family sharing settings and create appleIDs from the Mac, but not the screentime features in ios12. Hope that helps anyone else out there.

According to this article, you can control Family Sharing from your Mac. Hope this helps!
Thank you. That helps, but I still don't see any info on my Mac for family sharing preferences regarding screen time controls for the ios 12 parental controls settings on the iPad. Can anyone confirm if I have to have my own iOS device to control those parental controls?
Thank you.
