You generally can claim your minor children as dependents because they usually aren't providing more than half of their own support. When you look at support for a person, consider all expenses paid for them, such as housing, food, transportation, etc. Only if the minor child is providing more than half of their own support do you lose their exemption. Any money the child puts into a savings account does not go towards their own support and is basically taken out of the mix. See IRS Publication 501.
Example: Julie is 17 and made $8,000 this year, mostly in the summer. She's saving most of her money and put $5,000 in a savings account. Julie has paid $3,000 towards her own support. As long as her parents have paid more than $3,000 towards her support, she is their dependent. If Julie didn't put any money in savings, then her parents would have to pay more than $8,000 towards her support to claim her as a dependent.
