Hiding UPLOADED music in iTunes from Family Sharing.

Is there a way to hide music that was not purchased from the iTunes store from the Family Sharing? MOST of my iTunes music is uploads from CDs I own. I am sharing my music with my 9YO via her iPad, but I don't want her to have access to explicit lyrics. I love that we can now share a love of similar music styles, but some of the songs in my iTunes are completely inappropriate.

Family sharing allows for the sharing of purchases. Content matched or uploaded to an iTunes Match or Apple Music subscription isn't included. As long as she is using a separate Apple ID, and you're not syncing all of the content from your local library to her device, then she shouldn't be seeing your uploaded music.
