Child apple account and settings

I got a iPhone to my daughter, I just make her a child account on my iCloud account.

The problem is:

my contacts list is on her phone too, if she use the iMessage to send me a message on my mobile, the message goes back to her...

i don’t know what kind of settings I need to make.

Why are messages, sent to me, showing on my child’s iPad? I recently set up my old 7th Gen iPad (running iPadOS 16) as a new child account for my daughter. I even created an Apple ID for her. I just realized that text messages, sent to my iPhone 14 Pro Max (running iOS 16), are also being sent to “her” iPad. Why is that? How do I undo it so that she can have her own messaging (this iPad has its own unlimited data plan)?

kids ipad I set my daughter up with her own iCloud email, so she could text her friends and FaceTime. In my phone under screen time I added so she could only text specific contacts. But when she goes into her iPad and she starts to type her friends names all of my contacts keep showing up. How do you get to where only her contacts show up when she starts texting?

my phone and my daughters iPad have the same Apple ID. My daughter wants to iMessage with her friends. Is there a way she can do this without changing the Apple ID on her ipad? can you just change an apple id for messaging only? My daughter uses the same Apple ID as me. She wants to iMessage with her friends. When iMessage is turned on on the iPad she receives all the text messages from my phone. I do not want to change the Apple ID for the devise. She has many games and other apps that can be messed up if we do so. Can you just change an Apple ID on messaging? Can I create a new Apple ID just in iMessage for her on the iPad without messing up any of her stuff on her iPad?

Go to Settings and click on your name at the top of the screen, scroll to the bottom and select Sign Out. After that sign in using your child's Apple ID and password.
