My mother and I have a Family Sharing account because we initially opened it when I was a child. I can log into both her account and mine but when I go to the payment method section on either my macbook or iphone, I'm unable to add a payment method to purchase my own subscriptions. The option to "Edit" is grayed out and there is no option to "Add a payment method."
MacBook
Except that I do not want someone else to have to pay for my subscription. I've contacted Apple Support and it seems there is a way around this though I'm still surprised Apple has made it so complicated for a customer to make a purchase.

I previously had the subscription on my card, however, and only cancelled the subscription to save a little cash over the summer while I wasn't getting paid. I don't understand why I can't just add it back to the card it was previously on.
This also seems like a weird function on Apple's part - every day that I can't pay for this subscription, this company is losing money.
As previously noted:
You can add funds to your account which are normally used ahead of the family organiser's payment method.

The family organizer's payment method should cover any subscription, so that fact that you cannot add a payment method at this point in time shouldn't prevent you resubscribing to whatever service this relates to. Contact Apple Support for assistance if required.

That is how it works. You can add funds to your account which are normally used ahead of the family organiser's payment method, but you cannot add or use your own. See Family purchases and payments - Apple Support.
