How to remove a grown child from household

Hello,

     We have several instances of individuals who have grown up and purchased their own memberships. How can we remove children from households, and create their own ind. records?

For those people who have "child" versions of themselves in households, is there a way to extricate that individual child record and merge it into the adult constituent?

Please let me know if you have advice/experience on this.

Thanks,

-Elisabeth

  • Hi Elisabeth,

    When I do this, I create another postal address (even if it's the same address) for the grown child, then make it their Primary address. That should let you delete the primary affiliation in the Relationships tab and break the link to the household. After that is complete, you could create a new non-primary affiliation to retain the familial relationship if you wanted to.

    The other things we consider is what information exists (research, organisation specific attributes etc...) on the household that we want to copy over to the grown-childs individual record.

    The most common example for this type of operation has been separated couples :(

    Best,
