I recently added my PayPal account to my sons ps4 (big mistake ) and it looks like he's made a purchase for £49.99 in error. He wouldn't have done it on purpose he knows better. Can I dispute and get my money back?

You can try filing an unauthorised access dispute but its unlikely it will work as the IP address the payment came from would show as yours.
Paypal consider this a 'friendly' hijack and as you are responsible for who uses your paypal account you would be responsible for any payments unfortunately.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.
