I just updated my iPhone and my son's iPad to iOS 8. To test the Family Sharing feature I sent him an invite after setting myself up as the Organizer. He accepted the invite and then in the Family Sharing settings on my phone it showed him as an Adult. I looked for a way to change him to a child but couldn't find one, so I removed him and sent the request again. The same thing happened, it set him as an adult. So I removed him again. 3rd time I was presented with a message on his iPad saying that he can only join a Family twice a year, so he now has to wait 364 days to join my Family Sharing plan!!

This has got to be a joke. I suspect there'll be 'nothing they can do' if I call AppleCare but I'm going to try in the morning. Very disappointed. :(
