My parents let me fill my tank with gas. They wouldn't let me open an AWS account. Aside from that, if it is misuse of a parents card, then then answer is "chargeback."
I am sure many parents would agree with ”I wanna learn using AWS and I need a card connected to the account. Look here it says you can be on the free trial. Don’t you want me to have the ability to learn AWS and get a better future?”
Chargeback sounds like trying to defraud AWS. If the parent authorises the child to use their card, then the buck should stop with the parent. AWS has done nothing wrong in allowing an account to be opened with a valid card.
Isn't USA famous for letting parents take out credit cards on their newborns and pushing them into debt even before they learn to walk? I recall seeing at least a few snippets of movies and TV shows showing that.
Because 16 years old do not have a card with no spending limits, and with very low online spending limits. Most of those cards are even just for withdrawing
Would they be given their own credit card, or would it be under the parents? Over here minors can't enter into debt contracts like credit cards, so it'd be a direct debit until they are adults.
Because no 16 year old kid ever got to buy anything on a card before.

Generally no they don't because they have very limited ability to enter into agreements in the US. It was almost certainly an adult.
