Setting up a fitbit account for a Child with a Charge 6

My daughter (aged 10) recently got a Charge 6 and we are unable to set it up a fitbit account for her within the Google Family Link. 

From reviewing the forum, it seems that this *google* phone is incompatible with the *google* family link settings? This cant be true, surely? We arent willing to lose the supervision for Family Link, so are hoping there is a workaround?

Hi @altamonkey a child of ten needs to use what's included for the Family Account, which is the Ace series, not the Charge 6. All this is due to the COPPA law, which Fitbit, as part of Google, needs to follow. There is no workaround.
