Online Status with Xbox 360

Decide whether other people can see your child's online status. If you allow others to see your child's online status, they can see your child's current online activity, such as the game they are playing and whether they are available to play a game.

To determine the visibility of your child's online status:

1. Go to My Xbox and open System Settings.
2. Select Family Settings, Xbox LIVE Controls.
3. Sign in using the e-mail address and password that you used when you set up your child's Xbox LIVE account.
4. Select Privacy and Friends, Online Status.
5. Select Everyone, Friends Only, or Blocked.

To configure your child's settings for new online friends (including settings for approving friend requests), see New Online Friends for Xbox 360.
