I doubt that you could have a clause like this that would stand up in court for two main reasons. 1. The child is underage at the time the lease is signed and you can't make a contract with the child. 2. A parent cannot legally obligate their underage child to a future contract.

I would imagine that the child, when they come of age, would have to sign a contract. Good luck with that.

It's not a good idea. What kind of parent would agree to something like that? Not someone I would want to rent to.
