YouTube Premium’s Family Group is a subscription package that allows up to 5 members. Family members in the same household can avail of this option. There are cases when you would want to leave a group. For example, you may be moving out or simply want to take a break from YouTube. Read on to see how you can leave a family group on YouTube Premium.
Leaving On Your Own

Asking the Family Manager
Each Family Group has a designated Family Manager who has access to and control over the subscription. This includes adding and removing family members. This is another option you can take if you want to leave the group. For the family manager to remove you, he/she has to:
