Good day cainfromcairns,


In order to use Family Sharing that includes a child account (in the USA this means someone under 13 years old) the family organizer must use a credit card as the payment method. See this article for reference -



Family Sharing and Apple IDs for kids - Apple Support


Note that after the account has been created you can change the payment method back to a debit card if you wish.


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.


Safe computing,
