Nope.
You purchased a NON-TRANSFERABLE license.
That means you cannot trade, sell, or give away your games.

You can set up a Family Share to share your Library's, but nog all games take part in that program.

Don't hold your breath, unless state's or countries pass specific laws dictating by law how this works it most likely won't be done.

If it is done, expect it to be by all inheritance and only a thing once you die and your son provides proof of death. But it would be a legal nightmare because families could fight and all claim dibs on steam accounts for instance

By the time your kid plays even half of your games he will be 42 years of age

you can create a family group, and add your son to your family group. All family members get access to almost all the games. There's a few that don't get shared, but most do.

It sure would be nice and I'm sure there'd be a lot of support for this if it were feasible, but it'd be really hard to make that sort of thing work without feeding a bunch of abuse cases.

And, you know, corporations would rather simply force you to pay them twice rather than take the honorable route with regards to families.

I want to borrow from him, not the other way around, as he's the one who plays and will keep playing more…

Make a simple way to “inherit” games from another person…

The games and the account are not assets. They aren't even considered possessions. So there is no official mechanism in which to will them to someone else.

The account is not even yours. It's Valve's. You are just the user of it. And as long as the user can offer the login credentials and history of the account including past payment methods and email addresses, what reason would Steam have to question who ever that is?

when you buy things on steam youre not actually buying games, they sell you a license for the game

basically pc gaming has went around in a full circle, and now its centered around how to scam the customer best

If you where to pass away you could easily give your account to your kid. Because Valve does not have the tools to look through their userbase on people who have passed away.

This is also not a good PR move so they most likely won't do it.

You've been buying a license since the very start of PC gaming. Steam also saved PC gaming back in the day.
