My kid on my account

So, my 4yo likes to play overwatch, being 4 he doesn't have a computer and doesn't have his own copy of Overwatch.

My friends keep saying that if he plays on my account in QP or Arcade, then my account could get banned. Is there any validity in what they are saying? I can't seem to find any good information on the subject.

Bots is generally where he plays, he plays with other people against AI and that's never been a problem, he does fairly well. He wants to play things like No Limits now and such, so I would like to let him, but if my account gets banned that'd be even worse for both of us!

Hey there! It's awesome that you're sharing Overwatch with your son. The proudest moment for me, related to working on Overwatch, was when a few friends sent me videos of them showing their kids how to play.

It's totally okay to do this as others have correctly pointed out. Cheers!
