I am already in someone else’s family plan. How do I set up my own family plan?

Leave the first plan, then set up your own. Read this support article about managing membership of a family sharing group --> Leave Family Sharing - Apple Support

Follow the shortcut to:

- How to leave a family sharing group --> Leave Family Sharing - Apple Support

- How to remove anyone 13 or over if you are the Organizer. --> Leave Family Sharing - Apple Support

- Disband a family group --> Leave Family Sharing - Apple Support

If your family includes children under 13 (age varies by country or region), you must first transfer them to a different Family Sharing group or request that Apple delete their accounts entirely.
