Using your kid's name?

Question

Would you, or have you ever, used your kid's name or ss# to open an account or credit card?

If so, what will you tell your kid when they find out they have bad credit?

Answer 1

No I definitely would not use my kids name to obtain credit...simply because it's wrong, it's dentity theft,  and also I would not want my daughter to experience what I had to go thru when my mother did it to me and I found out at 18 that at 13 I had 5 credit cards, and 3 bank accounts, 1 loan, and 2 colletions---that were by the way in bad standing!!!!

I am 26 now with a 7 month old daughter and I absolutely would not want her to go thru years of fixing her credit--- having to prove that she is who she says she is....even if I didn't experience this first hand as I said before I still wouldn't do it

Answer 2

It's illegal.

Answer 3

Its called fraud!!! so if you want to miss up your child's credit for your own selfish ways then you are sick and twisted.Besides you can't open up your child can't open up  a credit card til he or she turns 18 so they will be able to understand why they're mother ruined their credit.

Answer 4

That would be against the law, so no, I would never do that.
