Cannot Create account "error description not available" message appears when trying to setup my child's apple account. What next?

Cannot proceed with adding new family member due to error message when creating my child's account. Message appears after I agreeing to T&Cs. Tried on both my iPhone 11 Max Pro and iPad Mini 4. What is the problem?
