Hello! We are excited to announce Steam Families is now available for all users. Steam Families is a collection of new and existing family-related features. It replaces both Steam Family Sharing and Steam Family View, giving you a single location to manage which games your family can access and when they can play. Create a Steam Family To get started, you can create a Steam Family and then invite up to 5 family members.

This was previously available as a opt in beta, but is now available for everyone.

    I can’t figure out how to create accounts for my kids. They are under 13 and there’s a checkbox saying people under 13 can’t create an account.

      Use the time honored technique of lying on the birthdate form.

      Yeah, maybe they should have some sort of ‘young child’ accounts for children under 13, that are required to be in a family with more restrictions on store access and such.

      IIRC I’m 5 years older on steam than reality because of this. From my family’s first computer onward, I am the parental controls.
