Why would Ftbit not allow any tracker to be connected to a family account?

[ToriTorellini]

Because Fitbit has issues maintaining Ace devices for adults, there is a missing device in their lineup that has only basic features.

These fun-only devices could be marketed as a “teen” device with the goal of preventing health anxiety disorders.

Possible features:
Step counting
Active minutes
Sleep
Text receiving/sending
Music

I have children that are too old for Ace but not do not have email addresses to have their own accounts. I would like my older girls to have access to cycle tracking, which is not available on Ace. I would like them to be able to track their training for cross country and track that I don't think they can do on Ace.
