It's not about the quantity of your posts.  It's about the quality.

Adding as an AU will show up on your credit report as credit age of the age of the primary card holder.
Not always with Amex.

Will adding my children as AU to my account help them build credit?
Can I even do so under 15?
Doesn't seem like they are asking for SSN so would it help them?

I think BOA is the best. I believe Citi does too, but if you have a Costco card, your kid must have Costco membership (won't work)  :)

Capital One lets you add kids of any age but they don't report to credit agencies.
