Jan 26, 2015 11:46 PM in response to R. Scott Lakeby Frederik Goris,I'm having the same issue. I think it's because Family Sharing (and the associated "Kid" account concept) was a new feature of iOS 8 and is only supported in iOS 8 (and future versions). Here's Apple's requirements page for various iCloud features: System requirements for iCloud - Apple Support
I guess you're stuck upgrading to the latest iOS on your son's 4S. But beware that it's the oldest iPhone that supports iOS 8, and I suspect you'll run into some performance issues. And from experience, kids aren't very patient when it comes to their gadgets.
Good luck.
