I THINK the FSX default settings allow you to just turn the yoke or stick left/right to steer on the ground, but I have not use that feature for years. Perhaps other sims use it and not FSX - I can't remember. :-) Even so, that isn't how real planes turn on the ground in real life, and you and your son will understand how flying works better if you use the rudder for turning on the ground anyway. :-) As a bonus, when flying the rudder makes landing, especially when trying to land in a crosswind, much, much easier.
Are you twisting the stick left or right when taxiing, or pushing the stick over to the left or right, in the the air this would bank the aircraft that direction?
On the ground, all aircraft use their rudder to steer, so you would need to twist the stick in the direction to want to go.
Some aircraft have castor type nosewheels where power and differential brakes help steer the aircraft on the ground, but the rudder is still the primary means of stearing
