Family Sharing vs Separate Apple IDs


getting kids (7 & 9) ipod touches christmas year.

debating whether setup them under family sharing vs creating own apple ids icloud , having apple id store.

seems me family sharing kids under 13:

- locks child in family (you can move them family)
- app request belongs them
- can't share in app purchases

setup apple id without family sharing, i'd have set , set birthdate of @ least 13. , can create apple id online without needing credit card correct? use web site create it?

have thoughts? way better?

think biggest issue in-app purchases. if both want same "free" game, , need buy in-app purchases.....with family sharing i'm buying twice.
