How to create Restrictions for my Kids Account when it comes to Friends with Library Access?

So I know how to create an account for my kid and restrict them to certain rated shows on my Library. But we have a ‘Friends with Library Access’ for my in-law’s Library at their house with their movies. When I create my kids profile, he’s no longer able to see my in-law’s library. How do I grant them access to it? And also, how do I set restrictions on their library as well?

so what you’re saying is Plex says ‘no dice’?
I wonder how they’d feel about it if it was from another point of view. Someone is sharing with me their whole library, but I personally don’t want to see everything. Shouldn’t I have the right to restrict what I see that someone else is sharing with me?

I honestly think the bigger issue is a managed user is handled differently. If a server admin could give access to individual managed users in someone else’s household I would assume it could work fine, the model they have setup doesn’t allow for it.

You could, theoretically get around thing by logging in a different Plex account on your end, and the server admin could then give restricted access to that Plex account, then its just a PITA on your end with logging in and out each time.
