My family are on a family plan and doing family sharing however they have access to the Apple Music and I don’t. Why is that and how can I fix it?

If there is an Apple Family Music subscription in use, (ie: not an individual Music subscription)
The family organizer may need to add you to the shared subscriptions
How to:Add a family member to your shared subscriptions - Apple Support
The way I understand it: With Apple Family Music subscription, everyone gets their own Library automatically, and they add the music of their choice. (If it is an individual Music subscription that can not be shared, yet you can still add and play purchased music in the Music app.)
If you can't find your family's shared content:

If the family organizer has "Purchase Sharing" turned on (and pays for purchases):
everyone in the family gets access to the apps, music, films, TV shows and books that family members buy from Apple.
