    I am having the same issue.

    There is no possible way Apple didn't think this the whole way thru!

    Why in the world would I want to create an new Apple ID for everyone in my family & over complicate things?!?  "Face Time" and "Messages" can tie several devices to on Apple ID driven by contact email or phone number.  I am hard pressed to believe that Find my Friends can't be set up in a similar format.

     

    Please help because this is frustrating me to the point of smashing an iPhone or 2!!
