Still confused MDE F&F linking or not,etc

[DJFan88]

Scenario: I have an active MDE acct. with all the plans, tickets for my immediate family of 5. All are now young adults and parents. All can get around and have been a lot. We will do a lot together and also a lot separate as this is a long trip.
No one else has a MDE account or installed app yet.
I can make LLs for them later if needed if they text me, but they will need to be able to mobile order themselves sometimes.
When I go to set up my Mobile Magic pass, it says something like each person with an MDE account should have one, or I can check them off on mine, but then they would still need the app. A couple of these older kids can also buy their own mobile order snacks.
How should I proceed? All videos I’ve seen are linking new guests, and not creating to make sure people with an identity already on my account are making a new account? I’m ok with them using my account, maybe? , but I don’t really want them having hotel, reservation control , etc., but recognize the need for them to be able to use app for room access if mb is forgotten, check tip board, bus schedule etc.
It would seem having their own MDE account would be nice, but I don’t know how to do that since they are already an identity in my account and not simply someone who already has an account that I’m linking

It's pretty simple. Just have them create an MDE account, and let you know the email address t they used to set it up. You then can go into your MDE and go to your friends and family list. Click on the person with the new account. At the bottom of that screen it says "Send Email". Click that. You will then enter their email address. They will get a notice asking them if they want to connect you you. When they say yes, all the information about them in your account will be transferred to their new account. You will no longer see their tickets as this have now moved to their account. Make sure you both check the boxes that allow plans to be shared.

You can still make LL reservations and ASRs for them, since they're linked to you, and they will see the hotel reservation and anything you've already made that includes them.
