Is it possible to share StarCraft with another Battle.net account?
I have purchased the first two SC2 games, and would like my son to be able to play. I am currently installing them on his computer from my Battle.net account. Is there a way for him to play that game (which I have a physical copy of, though he does not have an optical drive) using his account, without having to re-purchase the game?
Best Answer
No. Blizzard is very strict about this stuff. A game belongs to only one battle.net account. He can log in to your account to play, but you can't be online at the same time.

Can you share games between Battle.net accounts?
We don't allow a direct transfer of games between Battle.net accounts, but you may be able to combine Blizzard accounts if all of the info matches up between the two. Only certain games can transfer, and you'll have to contact Customer Support to inquire further about the possibility of combining them.Can 2 people use the same Blizzard account?
You can have multiple accounts under the same Battlenet and same payment method where you can have both accounts open on the same computer or on separate computers. Account Sharing is only permitted in the case of a Parent and Minor Child.TurpsterVision: Battle.net Account Merging

Answer 2
While your son can play with you using the StarCraft 2 Starter Edition (free) while in the same group (thanks to @BlueRaja-DannyPflughoeft for stating this out), you can't really transfer your key without using some tricks like this, which consists of lying etc, so I would not recommend doing such thing.
If you are thinking about sharing your account with your son, I recommend you to think again as the EULA states that you can't share your account.
