For example I have the K4PC on both my Desktop and Netbook computers so altogether I have 3 places that I can download a given book to. The two computers and the actual Kindle 3. Having her on your account will also allow you to make sure she isn't spending $ on books that she doesn't have as well as being able to keep an eye on what books she does buy.
On the other hand, it will also give daughter access to all YOUR books, which may not be appropriate for a 9-year-old.

One solution is to register to an account with no credit card attached, and use gift vouchers to buy books.
