Betty - in My account details, on the left hand side of the screen, in your personal details, you can click on yes next to hide living relations, then click on save. (AKA M M)

Hi Jodi, Thanks for the information now I can put living rellies on my tree but HOW do I ask this person who has me and my family on their tree to change it. Betty

If you go into 'my account details' on the left hand side of the screen, there is a 'hide living relatives' option, about half way down the page. Just select 'yes' and your done!

Yes, Betty, according to genealogy etiquette, and GR T & C, names of living people should be hidden. Have done a special thread with your name in the title - on the general board! .... :-)
