Apple ID

I have created a apple ID for my son but used the wrong birth date. I want to now correct the Birth date and link his phone with Family sharing. He is under 13 years old. Any Ideas on how I go about it.

From the support article: Update the birth date associated with your Apple ID - Apple Support

To change a birth date to any age below 13 (age varies by country), you must be a member of a Family Sharing group [ Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support ], and your family organizer must approve the change. After you change a birth date to any age below 13, you can't alter it except by contacting Apple Support --> Contact - Official Apple Support


1. Follow the instructions in the article to update the birth date on an Apple mobile device or on the web.

2. Follow the onscreen steps to send an email request to your family organizer.

3. Your family organizer will get an email with instructions to approve the request.
