Apple ID is greyed out on Macbook Air

I'm trying to log out of my daughter's account on her Macbook Air and log into my account. She is a minor and under my family plan. When I try to log out of her account in System Settings/Apple ID/Sign Out, the Sign Out button is greyed out. Perhaps because she does not have administrative privileges on the Macbook? If that's the case, how do I reboot and log into a different account? Thanks.

You have screen time restrictions set to prevent Apple ID changed thru settings.

If an app or feature on your device is not working, not appearing, or is restricted (grayed out), a frequent reason is it may have been disabled using Screen Time, or by an IT administrator if you are using a device owned by an employer or educational institution.
