Why does Microsoft tell me I need permission from an adult to make a purchase?

I use Microsoft on my laptop. Every time I go to click on a certain news or entertainment post or if I go to make a purchase from the Microsoft store it tells me that I need to request permission from an adult or they have to contact an adult to give me permission for the purchase. This is my laptop and I am 54 years old.

Can someone please help me with this issue or tell me what the problem is.

Thank you,

Hector Flores

    It seems your account is under the control of a parental control setting and organized by others as parents.
