No you didn't.

Your parents did with your name on it so the checks said Your Name but it was in your parents actual accountability.

right, but like they aren't going to let a 6 year old take out a loan or overdraw the account. if the basic "you got no money or credit" account is limited to "put money in, take money out, no overdrafts, no charge and no interest" then what's the bank's concern exactly

What did you do to my camera? Why's it not working? You broke it... Ugh, you took it off green square. Don't use these other ones, they don't work.

if you or your parents wrote hot checks in your name you can't get an account ever.

a few of my hs friends had that happen. even now 20 years later they have to use check cashing places because they are in the Chex system and can't use banks at all.

that's ridiculous. i would have thought it would last on your record for like 7 years, in the manner of a bankruptcy or car accident. not your whole life. wtf
