Why can't family members use their own payment methods

I have to admit that I absolutely dislike the way Apple has implemented family sharing. Anything bought comes off of a single credit card. My wife wants something I have to pay for it. My oldest child what's something I have to pay for it. 


For the love of GOD, please allow other people in our family sharing circle to make their own purchases!!! Apple don't you recognize that you missing sales that you could otherwise have?

Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.


If you want to, you can send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem or a suggestion for change. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem/suggested change solved sooner. Pick the closest topic you can find.
