PS4 Assistance Needed

[stooges44]

I know that you can set parental controls on a ps4. But from what I understand the parent account needs to create the child account as a new account. An existing parent account cannot be downgraded to a child account.

So, my problem is this: I have an existing parent account with lots of data (games, status, etc..) tied to it and as a parent account I cannot restrict it but if I create the child account it would be a new account and lose all that data. 

Does anyone have any ideas? Google has only provided me with this, which is essentially the same question I have: https://www.reddit.com/r/PS4/comments/8lw928/family_management_how_to_set_an_existing_account/

TIA

Sounds like a type of problem SONY can probably help with. Maybe they have a way to transfer the data...

Wouldn't a new child account have access to all your purchases?
