What you ask in the topic title is NOT the same as what you ask in the text of your question which means it is hard to provide specifics to your issue without writing an entire book about it.


If you are the organizer and want to leave, you have to disband the entire family.


If you are not the organizer then just leave.


If minor children are involved and you need to disband the family, you either need to transfer the children to a different family or request that Apple delete their accounts (and lose everything they have purchased with those accounts).
