Family Sharing Purchasing

My kids are 16, 18, and 20. They are still on my family account but want to make their own purchases and not charge my card on file. Can i set this up for them or do I have to remove them from the family?

If you, the family organizer, turn off purchase sharing then they can pay for their own content independently but still take advantage of shared subscriptions. See Change Purchase Sharing settings in Family Sharing on Mac - Apple Support for example. Or they can purchase Store Credit, or apple iTunes Gift Cards which will normally be used ahead of your purchase method. Get them to use this second approach if you/they want to continue to be able to share purchases made by other members of the family.
