Re: Why are child accounts not allowed to access online features?
Okay, finally fixed it. If no one has a problem with changing the birthday of their children to make them older, but that is what has to be done or wait and see if EA fixes this. The problem lies in when you created your childs Microsoft account, you put in their birthday and that is what is being used as a check to see if they have access to the content or not. It doesn't matter what xbox parental settings you have. If your Microsoft account has your childs birthday as this day, then that is the check. You can edit it by signing into your Microsoft account, then under security and privacy, you will see manage permissions for children. Under this, you can edit there profile including birthday.
Now I do not recommend doing this unless you really don't care, because it basically will make them an adult in the online world. But I checked it and it does work. The only other thing I had to do was sign onto his ea account (origin client) and make sure it was linked to his xbox one live profile. Once that was done, I can log into the game under his name and play multiplayer and everything else... I know it sounds confusing, but it works.... as long as the emails are the same between ea (origin) and the one you use for his Microsoft account....
