PLEASE HELP!!

Six years ago, my sister and I got a ps4 for Christmas. I was 16 and she was 18. When we set up our PSN accounts, they made us set her up as a "parent" because I was a minor.

Any time I bought a game, I had to do it under her account.

I just bought her a ps4 for Christmas so now we each have our own. She removed me as her child now that I'm an adult and I no longer have access to any of my games. Ps4 is telling me to purchase them for licensing.

I don't have the money to throw at buying all of my games again.....do I have any options other than buying everything again? If we set her up as a parent account, can I get my games back? And will we be able to play them at the same time?

Any ideas would be appreciated. I can elaborate if need be. Thanks in advance.

I think that's your problem right there. Unless you have the physical disc, all the games will be under your sister's account.
You can either:
a) buy all the games again or
b) set up your sister's account (same PSN as before) as another user on your PS4 and all the games will be available to download again.

Only trouble is, with b), you'll still be playing them under her account.
