Q: how to select what to share with family

After I setup family share, ALL of my music shows up on my daughters iPad.  How do I select what to and what not to share?

    Thanks,  but I am not interested in hiding things from myself.


    There has to be a solution here since parents/adults surely may have plenty of music in their collection they may not want their children listening to...correct?  The same would go for other media but I am going to stick with figuring out the music thing first.

     

    I understand that if I hide songs, they are also hidden my my children's device.  I apologize if I am missing something here (and I hope I am) but why would I want to hide songs from myself?
