How to change the year on birthday for my child?

Hi, I accidentally put in the wrong year for my child when I was creating a apple ID. I would like to correct that mistake but it seems impossible. My child is 9 years old if that matters.

I have tried to find this matter solved in apple support but with out any success.

Children’s accounts are quite tightly controlled.


The following article even states, “… Be sure to enter the [child’s] correct birth date — you can't change it later … “

So, the only means of correcting a child’s birthdate - before the child reaches the “AppleID Age” of 13 - is for the Family Organizer to contact Official Apple Support
