When does that happen exactly? Is it when you want to update an app? Or randomly? What exactly is the symptom? Do you just notice when you go in the settings that your apple id is your son's?
When I am trying to update an app, noticed it is his email address.
Simple: the app was purchased/downloaded under his Apple ID, therefore it will always ask you for his password when updating (nothing you can change here).
If the app is free, my suggestion would be to delete it and reinstall it with your own Apple ID. If it's a paid one, either you want to spend more money on it, or you have to live with the fact that it'll askfor your son's password.
That's great will go and have a look :)
