I just set up the family calendar feature, but since I have my kids' google accounts on my phone, I see multiple copies of each event in my calendar! Is there a workaround? Any way to sync an account but NOT the calendar?
Google Family Calendar + Multiple google accounts on phone = 4x events

You had the right idea - I was able to deselect the "family" calendar under each member. I was looking at the widget and account settings.
Thanks.

I had a variation of this problem before, I think it involved different work accounts.
I don't know if you would consider this a solution for your case but I seem to remember they're being a Chrome extension that would merge duplicate events into a kind of zebra stripe color when displaying them in your Google calendar, for me this was sufficient

I shall do.
Surely this is a common side effect of the new family calendar feature!

I just discovered it and it has been great!

I don't think that will help me, exactly, but it's the right idea. Maybe a different calendar widget that lets me show/hide calendars.
