Up to 6, sharing your shareable games library

Adult and child accounts, limit child accounts, approve and pay for child buy requests,

Intended for close household family; can't join a different one until one year after joining

If a family member gets banned for cheating while playing your copy of a game, you (the game owner) will also be banned in that game. Other family members are not impacted.

The difference is that you get to choose you steam family :')

You can choose your IRL family too, just takes a little more work to drop the shitty people.

Steam said my partner was ineligible, so no, steam gets final choice. 😢

It's like the meme, is there someone you forgot to ask?

Hahaha that's the abusive parent telling you you can't see your partner anymore
