My child is 12. I am trying to allow him to make in app purchases with his own money. When I click on his icon in the App store there is no option to add money to his Apple ID. What am I doing wrong?

Go to App Store. Click on the right top corner to access your son’s ID. In the blue color you will see a title “Add funds to your apple ID”. You can click on that link and add money. Since your son is just 12, kindly ensure to add smaller amount as kids are not aware of how to spend money. They’re innocents.

Hi Mutantasc,
Here's a resource that will guide you through adding money to an Apple ID account balance: Add money to your Apple Account balance - Apple Support
If you're using Family Sharing, your child can purchase gift cards and redeem them to use on his Apple ID. Here's more information about that: How to redeem your Apple Gift Card or App Store & iTunes gift card - Apple Support

Take care.
