Description

### Your use case

#### What would you like to do?

I'm trying to set up a Tablet for my child and want to install Element app for him. I "secure" this with Family link for Child protection. Therefore, the age restriction of 18 years in the play store is causing issues. I'm unable to install element in the child's account

#### Why would you like to do it?

I would like to take advantage of all the age safety measures Family link provides, but also use Element with my child. Hence I have to use the correct age.

#### How would you like to achieve it?
I dont't see why element is restricted above 18 year. No other messenger Whatsapp Threema ... seems to have this restriction.

### Have you considered any alternatives?

_No response_

### Additional context
