How to fix a data error I made in the "Parents and Child's Relationships"?

I created a data error in regards to my grandparents having no children. What I meant to do was say my grandfather and his second wife never had children. When I realized it was on my grandparent's detail page, I tried correcting it but was unable to figure out a way to do so. I tried going to the "Details" Page and selecting "All Changes". Unfortunately, there was no edit or way to change it back there. Now on both grandparents' "Details" Page says, "Children are Mismatched". I was on Windows at the time.

I know very little about Family Search's Website. So, if anyone can help, please answer as detailed as you can with maybe even steps. I'm having a hard time finding certain pages they talked about on Google to fix the situation.

Thank You, Lana Penrose

    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    Just in passing ...

    So, that we may be better able, to help/assist you ...

    Question: WHERE did you indicate, that there were NOT "Children", for the Couple ...

    ▬ For the individuals/person, in the "Other Information" Section; under, "Facts"; and, then, "No Children"?; or

    ▬ For the Couple, in the "Couple Relationship"; under, "Realtionship Facts; being, "No Children"?; or,

    ▬ BOTH?

    Whichever ...

    You can go to either, and, just "Delete" the 'Fact'.

    Just my thoughts.

    I hope, that this may help/assist, somewhat.
