And the tickets has both his mileageplus# and mine. I don't know why the UA booking system didn't recognize this.

Do you suggest to call the UA to get the discount (I guess around $100) for my son's ticket?
I don't think the system will automatically recognise the age of mp members. You will have to click on "children" beside the number of adult travelers. That will lead you to a page with 3 categories of children and 2 categories of infants travellers. With that, you should get it priced right next time.
