First, the age of a child is defined by your country–more: https://yt.be/help/pE5Q Second, the key is to evaluate your content & target audience on a video-by-video basis to determine if it's specifically made for kids (vs just appropriate for kids). More resources on this soon.

I have posted almost 500 videos on my channel, do I have to go through each one and certify the age? Some I made when I was 10, 11, 12. I am 13 now and I post teen content, I rely on the adsense to cover all my expenses. I need more information!

I would hope they have a way to mass-select the videos to certify the intended audience age as I have over 1,6000 videos and there is NO WAY I could manually do it. Also, I'm sure YouTube will share more info as time goes on.
