Apple is doing no such thing. If you are 11, you should have a parent who approves purchases for you on your iPhone. One of your parents, should be using Parental Controls with Ask to Buy.

Hey Display!


As you are not above 13, you cannot use Apple Cash. The only way to use Apple Cash if you are 11 is to be under a Family group. (Click here for instructions on how to create a Apple ID for a 13< user). Once those steps are complete, click here for instructions on how to set up a Apple Cash Family Account


PLEASE NOTE: To my knowledge, you do not need to delete your Apple ID account. Go into your Settings < Personal Information < Birthday < Edit to your real birthday < Continue to the first link



Let me know if you need anymore assistance !
