This part is important, because it will be your parent who is the party owning the AdSense account, and they should be aware of the requirements. Go to the AdSense Help Center and read through the AdSense Program Policies and Terms and Conditions with your parent.Explain why you can't sign up yourself for AdSense, and why you'd like your parent to sign up for you.Sit down with your parent(s) or legal guardian at the computer and explain the monetizing process to them - especially if they aren't very familiar with the web.Make sure you are aware of the content requirements for monetized videos, particularly if you use visuals from gameplay in your videos.

If you are a minor who is hoping or planning to get a full Partnership someday on YouTube and are working towards monetizing your videos, you need to plan ahead a little, in order to make this process simpler, and trouble-free. Once the parent's account is approved, the minor can link it to their own channel, following instructions to do so on YouTube. Once it's enabled, the parent can apply for Adsense through the Channel's monetize tab (on the monetize page, the parent will need to look for and click the link that says "how do I get paid" to get the Adsense application). Once they create a YouTube Channel, the parent can upload one video (or have their child upload the video for them) and wait for YouTube to enable the Channel for monetization. Their YouTube Channel doesn't need a lot of videos to qualify for monetization. The simplest thing for a parent to do is to create a YouTube Channel under their own name. However, in some cases, the parent doesn't have a website or blog, or even a monetizable YouTube Channel, so in effect, there isn't any way for the parent to apply for Adsense for the minor. Once the parent has an approved AdS ense account, it can be linked to your YouTube Channel. And the parent will also need to have a website, or blog ( ), or YouTube Channel (in their name, not in your name) to apply with. The parent needs their own Google Account/Email address in their name.

The steps to sign up for an AdS ense account need to be taken separately by the parent. You also can't directly submit an application for AdSense with one of your own email accounts and put your parent's name on the application form.

What you can't do is resubmit your application through your YouTube Channel by changing the email address from your own, to one of your parent's email addresses.

But don't explain exactly how to do that. Instructions given in some areas simply tell the minor to have a parent sign up for them. This becomes a problem when the minor tries to sign up themselves and AdSense rejects their application. Minors under the age of 18 can't sign up for their own Adsense account, even if you can have your own YouTube Channel (YouTube's age requirement is 13 I believe). This is fast becoming one of the most prevalent questions we're seeing in the AdSense Help Forum, and most likely in the YouTube Help Forum as well.
