There's another way to "lose" accounts that's a bit more likely depending on
your circumstances. I had set up a google account for my kid, so we could lock
down the old tablet we let him poke at. I was happy that I had managed to get
him his firstname.lastname gmail address in the process.
However recently the family moved to a new country. This basically isn't
something google lets you do with a family group, and until you change your
play store country, your play
store won't have the local variants of a lot of apps, so you can't install them.
You have to delete your family group, change country then recreate it. But you
can't delete a family group with a child account. The only thing you can do is
delete the child account. The help docs mention being able to restore it, but
that didn't work, it just said it couldn't be restored. And since google doesn't allow an email address to ever be
recycled once it's deleted, I forever locked my kid out of possibly having his
firstname.lastname gmail address. Very frustrating.
Oh man, think long
before talk escapes your mouth.
Speak thoughtfully, without anger and hatred,
thus you will succeed all the better.
Listening quickly and answering slowly,
considering things carefully, that is how wise men live.
Through talk many have been overcome,
in silence few have been found dishonourable.
There is no better protection from dishonour
than being the master of your tongue.
