Invitation link to join a Family Group
Does the invitation link look the same for every individual you invite to join Family group? Is the I.D a group I.D? Can children without an email address, use the link to sign into Familysearch from a parents contact either through messenger chat or their email?

An invitation to join a Family Group that is for Family Group Trees (FGT) is unique to the individual you are inviting. You can see details in How do I invite others to the family group and be part of the Family Group Tree?, which says:
Important: The invitation links to join family groups in the preview can only be used by one person. This is different from how the regular family group feature works. To invite multiple people, you need to send an email or send a link to each recipient individually.
Everyone who participates in a Family Group has to have their own FamilySearch account (which can be accessed using a third-party login such as Facebook, Google, or Apple). You can only join a Family Group for FGT by having your own account and accepting an invitation that was created for you specifically.

@denisecynthiawatson1 The newest version of the invitations are the same for everyone. Group Administrators must accept each member's request to join.
Each person must have their own FamilySearch Account in order to sign in as a Group Member.
Children can have their own account (with parent permission) from the age of 8 years old. Youth from 13 years of age do not need parent permission to create an account.
