More is required. Your son requires his own Apple ID, regardless of his age. The iPhone should be completely cleansed as follows:
What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Then:
Help your child set up an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Family Sharing and Apple ID for your child - Apple Support
Regarding your other issue:
itunes won't recognise the phone either
iTunes ... where? On a Mac? A Windows machine? What iTunes version number? What operating system name and version number?
