I bet he has to purchase one as well. Whenever I have purchased AP I as to present my membership card. Every adult had to show photo ID and everyone had to have the same address on the ID. This has happened when i purchased the AP online and received vouchers or when I purchased them while at WDW. Since your son is the member I am thinking he will need to be present in order to make the purchase.
