How do I use Screen Sharing with Fast User Switching?

My Mac Mini is alway on because the main account is always signed in running Plex.

Occasionally, I'm asked to remotely switch to my kid's account. I can view the screen fine via Screen Sharing (VNC) or Google Remote Desktop no problem at all.

However, when remotely viewing my screen and I switch accounts via Fast User Switching in the menu bar item, it doesn't show the MacOS login screen. It still shows the desktop of the main account.

Is there a way around this via MacOS Screen Sharing or other remote desktop software?
