1. A method for user controlled policy sharing, the method comprising:
- at a policy and charging rules function (PCRF);
receiving, from a first user device, a user device initiated request to share with a second user device a policy attribute associated with the first user device;
generating a signaling message containing instructions to modify the policy attribute; and
communicating the signaling message to a policy control function associated with the second user device.

14. A system for user controlled policy sharing, the system comprising:
a policy and charging rules function (PCRF) comprising; a communication interface; a policy sharing module implemented using a processor for executing instructions stored in a memory, wherein the policy sharing module is configured to; receive, from a first user device and via the communication interface, a user device initiated request to share with a second user device a policy attribute associated with the first user device; generate a signaling message containing instructions to modify the policy attribute; and communicate, via the communication interface, the signaling message to a policy control function associated with the second user device. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)

27. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer executable instructions that when executed by a processor of a computer control the computer to perform steps comprising:
at a policy and charging rules function (PCRF); receiving, from a first user device, a user device initiated request to share with a second user device a policy attribute associated with the first user device; generating a signaling message containing instructions to modify the policy attribute; and communicating the signaling message to a policy control function associated with the second user device.
