This practice should be stopped immediately.


Each and every person, regardless of age, needs her/his own, unique Apple ID.


The person acquiring a new ID should thoroughly cleanse her/his Apple device(s) as follows before “moving in” using the new ID:

This is the fiancé, I run ios 16.4.1 on a 12 pro max, was attempting to purchase a book, and couldn’t because it wouldn’t let me add a card to my Apple ID even though she added me as a parent and Gabe me permission. I can’t add a payment unless she does first. Not even from my apple wallet which has multiple cards in it and Apple Pay. This is annoying and want to resolve. About your suggestion, well that’s How this all started, I can’t add payment method so as you can see it won’t even highlight, let alone let me select it
