Wash triggered when I sell in my account and purchase win minor account?

Will I trigger a wash sale if I sell stock YYY in my account for a loss and then purchase the the same stock YYY in a minor’s account  within 30 days.  Actually my child is 19 and a full time student but we support them.

 

Seems like I should be able to do this without triggering a wash since my losses cannot apply against any gains in the minor account as far as I know.

 

Thanks!
