How to delete a child from Family Sharing?

I presume this is a minor age child? See the document Move a child to another group using Family Sharing - Apple Support - "You can't remove a child under 13 years old [see the document for regional age variations] from your family group, but you can move them to another group or delete their account." If this is a non-minor child you can remove them from your group as outlined in this document Leave Family Sharing - Apple Support

The alternative is deleting the child's account altogether which has the consequence that anything purchased with that account will not be available for redownloading or updating in the future. One way to delete the account would be to log into the unwanted "child" account and request deletion. You should have the ID and password from when you first set up the account, or can recover the password according to information provided in the referenced links below:
