Ask to Buy will need to be turned OFF on the Family Organizer’s iPhone.

On the Family Organizer’s iPhone (Your Mom or Dad), open Settings ➡️ Under Apple ID, Choose Family ➡️ Tap on Family Member’s Name (Your Name) ➡️ Tap on Ask To Buy and turn it OFF.

NOTE: If there is an ADULT designation under your name, then Ask to Buy will not appear.
