Hi Brbo, thank for your quick answer! I´ve tried the steps you sent me and I realize the problem is more complex... When I set an apple id for my 12yo son yesterday I didn't remember that he already had one, made for him around 2018 (we never used this old one). So now I have the same kid with 2 apple id under my family sharing subscription. It is apparently impossible deleting this duplicity... probably I´ll have to deactivate or delete one of his apple ids. The problem is that even deleting a kid id(under 13yo) is problematic... I logged using his account, tried to delete it and got a message that only the organizer (me) would authorize that, and Apple was supposed to send me a request, but since yesterday I am waiting for this message, didn't received it yet. Do you know if there is an easier way to de-duplicate a child's apple id? It is really necessary to delete one of the accounts?


This is the message I got (in portuguese, my native language "Você solicitou consentimento parental para apagar sua conta. Uma mensagem foi enviada a *** forneça consentimento parental. Cancelar solicitação ›"
