So...I activated a new iPhone 6 for my youngest son. My older son already had one on my account. When the new 6 activated, it seems to be recognizing the phone as my older sons. Phone was named as older sons...in the contacts, my older son shows as "Me". Not sure if I'm explaining this well ??? Any help appreciated.

Hello. I think the issue is with login into the same iCloud account. Make a new one for your younger son. With the new family sharing options for apps and stuff it makes the parents job easier to control what they use :)
