Hi

You may have dismissed an incoming Digital Touch by accident; to see it now:

Go to your notifications or friend (press the side button once and select your son) and tap the Replay icon.

Otherwise, try these steps:

  • On your son's iPhone: in the Contacts app > ensure that his contact record for you includes your Apple ID email address and your iPhone phone number.
  • Ask your son to delete all old iMessage conversations with you (on his iPhone and Apple Watch):
    • On iPhone > Messages > swipe left on a message thread > delete.
    • On Apple Watch > Messages app > swipe left on a message thread > tap on trash icon.
  • Ask your son to set new conversations to start from his iPhone's phone number.

    On iPhone > Settings > Send & Receive > scroll down to Start New Conversations From > choose his iPhone phone number.

  • On your son's iPhone, disable and re-enable iMessage:

    iPhone > Settings > iMessage > toggle off / on again.

  • Restart your son's iPhone and his Apple Watch.
