How to transfer iCloud account to family member?

I have an iCloud family account and would like to transfer 'ownership' to my daughter. How do I do this.


We will still both have devices on the account for backup, sharing, etc.


Thanks.

As per the article https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/mac-help/mh5a9bb78c90/10.14/mac/10.14

As the family organiser, you can remove people from the family group. After you remove someone from the family, that person may be able to join or set up another family. However, each person may only join two families per year. (Rejoining a family or creating a new one counts against this limit.)

The daughter can leave your family sharing group https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/mac-help/mh2b0f42b606/mac

And create her own family sharing account https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/mac-help/mh3d6eb198/10.14/mac/10.14 ( she will be then organiser of family sharing account ) and invite others to join the group https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/mac-help/mh2fd47a0f16/mac
