I cannot give you legal advice however adding a child's name to any property or bank account is usually not a good idea ... if the child has an auto accident and gets sued they can attach any asset the child is listed on ... instead setting up a trust with the child as a trustee may be a better idea or just being put on the account as an authorized signer and not an owner of the account. I highly recommend you seek a local attorney and see what you can do legally in your state.
