Sharing Apple TV with family
i want to share Apple TV with my family who have their children an Apple ID. When they try to set it up, it asks for payment.
If it is shared, then it should not be charged.

It sounds like you are having issues setting up your kids on your Apple TV. We know how important this is for you and your family, and you’re in the right place for answers. Have you turned on purchase sharing? Here is more info about this feature and a link to how to turn it on.
Share purchases from the App Store and more
When you set up purchase sharing, everyone in the family gets access to the apps, music, movies, TV shows, and books that family members buy. The content automatically appears on the Purchased page in the App Store, iTunes Store, Apple Books, or Apple TV app. Some items can't be shared.
