How can I add child account?

Trying to set up a new machine of Windows 8 and add two children.  I have a windows live Id, but cannot find anywhere to create an Id of windows for kids.

I tried clicking on the various links in messages windows8 machine and my vista machine which forced me to install windows essentials.

I never see an option to add a child.  I have never the option to prove that I am an adult by entering a credit card.

I'm starting to think that buying a windows8 machine was a big mistake.

How can I create an identification of phase of windows for my children so that they can get all the features of windows8?

Hi RayVojtash,

If you want to use the parental control to monitor computer and your child's online activity, it is normal that you will be notified by the system to install Windows Essentials, given that parental control is part of Windows Essentials.

Please install the Windows parental control client on the computer that is using your child. You can download the installer from the link below:

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Live/Essentials-home

Once you have correctly installed the client, sign up for a child account to http://signup.live.comand reconfigure the client and your child's account on this computer. You can check the link below for detailed steps:

Bind the child account for a Parent account

If you have any other questions, please let us know.

Thank you!
