HI Community.

Thanks for your answers.

Hello Rainer Harter,
After reviewing your post, it sounds like you want to know who you can add to Family Share. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
Start or join a family group using Family Sharing - Apple Support
Invite people to join your family
You can use the steps below to add someone who already has an Apple ID to your family, as long as you're both using iOS 8 or OS X Yosemite. You can also create an Apple ID for a child and add them to your family group. When you create an account for a child, you must use a credit card as the payment method as part of providing your parental consent. After you create the child's Apple ID, you can change your payment method if you choose.
Use these steps to invite someone from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
- Go to Settings > iCloud > Family > Add Family Member.
- Enter your family member's name or email address.
- Follow the onscreen instructions.
Use these steps to invite someone from your Mac:
- Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click iCloud.
- Click Manage Family.
- Click +, then follow the onscreen instructions.
If your family member is with you, they can enter their Apple ID password on your device to accept the invitation. You can also send them an invitation, and they can accept from their device.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,
Mario
Thanks Mario.
I understand the technical side of Family Sharing. My question is about the legal side. Can I use fs with an adult daughter who does not live in my house anymore? I read something like "Family Share connects people of one household.
Do you know the answer?
Thanks again.

Dear Mario.
Thanks again for your answer. I visited the sites you've pointed me to but they don't answer my question.
I just want to make sure that it is legal to invite my daughter although she does not live in my household anymore. The infooage from apple about familyshare is talking about familyshare as a tool for persons of "one household".
So: am I allowed to use familyshare with my adult kids living in their own households.
TIA!
