Hi there,
my sons iPad is receiving all my messages ?!
I have googled it and has said that my son needs to be logged into his own apple account which he is so I’m not sure how to stop this?
all too confusing for me! Why can’t things be simple?
iPad (8th generation)
It sounds like you have "Text Message Forwarding" turned on. This causes all your iPhone messages to be sent to your son's iPad.
Test this by sending another message and see if your son's iPad receives it.
I hope this helps!
Are you certain that your son is signed-in to iCloud and separately to iMessage with his own AppleID?
1) Settings > [Your Name / AppleID]
2) Settings > Messages > Send and Receive > AppleID
