Powershell Force windows service that has dependency service to stop - powershell

Question

I'm currently working on a powershell script to stop certain windows services and set its startup type to disabled.
My script works fine for services with status stopped however for services that has dependency service running cannot be stopped. I get bunch of errors. I tried to append -Force switch,it aint working too. What could be wrong.
Below is my script.
# Function defintion
function Shut_Services_Down {
# Services array
$services_to_shut_down = #("spooler", "XblGameSave", "Fax")
# Loop each service in the array
foreach ( $node in $services_to_shut_down ){
Set-Service -Name $node -Status stopped -StartupType Disabled -Force
}
}
# Call the function
Shut_Services_Down
error 1

error 2, after removing -Force switch
PS C:\users\admin\desktop\psscripts> .\services.ps1
Set-Service : Cannot stop service 'Print Spooler (spooler)' because it has dependent services.
