Go to Settings->Account(top of Settings)->Family Sharing->iCloud+, make sure you have accepted the invitation to join your son's Family Group, then select the 200TB shared plan to replace your own 50GB plan from the list of subscription.


Do not cancel your plan yourself. Once you select the shared 200GB plan, it will automatically cancel yours and give you a prorated refund.
