I am the organizer of the family group, and I am not seeing the option to remove myself at all. I am still getting parental blocks, but I am the only one listed in the group as the organizer; how can I remove this feature or just delete the family safety portion of Microsoft and keep using all other subscriptions?

    Hi,
    This might be due to an incorrect date of Birth set on your account. At https://account.microsoft.com/profile page, can you tell me if you can see the same?

    I look forward to hearing from you to get the results of the troubleshooting.
