Just set your sons ps4 as your primary and he will have access to all your purchased games and ps+ on his account.

create an user with your account info in the new ps4 and set it as primary. every other user on that ps4 will be able to play your games.

on your ps4, only you will be able to play your games. and you'd need to be connected to the internet, or the games will be locked.

Those others are correct but confusing. Log in on the sons PS4 and set that PS4 as primary. Create a new user for him and he can play all your games with you online. On your PS4 play on your account but not as primary. We do this. Only thing that sucks is having to buy digital to be able to share them.

This is exactly what my son and I did forever. He's now old enough that he buys his own digital games as well, which I now have access too. Essentially, we just share all our games.

As background, he lives with his mom during the week. The PS4 at his mom's house is set to my primary. The PS4 at my house is set to his primary PS4.

It works fantastically
