Hi nefeli289
welcome to the Apple (user-to-user) Community.
Re: "I can not access apple music through family sharing"
To access your family's shared content, you need an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch using iOS 8 or later, or a Mac using OS X Yosemite or later.
If you're using an older device, you won’t see your family’s shared content.
When you share subscriptions like Apple Music, each person sees their own preferences and recommendations — not the whole family’s.
You would usually be automatically added, once included.
You need to use your own Apple ID for Family Sharing / Apple Music:
You would usually get an invite, and accept that to join Family sharing.
What to do:
If you can't find your family's shared content – Apple Support
If your sister turned on purchase sharing:

You might want to ask your (organiser) sister to check:
Make sure that each family member has a unique Apple ID - Apple Support
Add a family member to your shared subscriptions - Apple Support
If you wish:

For more info.
There's a Family Sharing website online
Eg: says: "One adult in your family — the organizer — invites all the other members to join and sets up accounts for anyone under 13.2 Once family members join, Family Sharing is set up on everyone’s devices automatically. The group then chooses which services and features they’d like to use and share".
All the best :-)
