    Hi there mia260,

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.

     

    Take a look at the article linked below, it’ll answer you question and walk you through the process of leaving a Family Sharing group.

    Leave Family Sharing - Apple Support

    How do I leave a family group?

     

    Any family member over the age of 13 can remove themselves from a family group at any time.*

    • In iOS 8 or later, tap Settings > iCloud > Family, tap your name, then tap Leave Family.
    • In OS X Yosemite, go to Apple menu > System Preferences > iCloud > Manage Family, click your name, then click the Remove button in the bottom-left corner.

     

    When you turn off Family Sharing, you leave the family. After you leave a family, you can join or set up a new one. However you can only switch to a different family group once per year.

     

    So long,

    -Jason
