How long does a criminal record stay if you are a child?

(in the US) Unless your offense was committed prior to your 18th birthday, you will always have a criminal record - it does not "go away" after a certain number of years. ----------------------------- This actually depends on the country you receive the criminal record in. For example, in Canada a criminal record stays on RCMP databases until you reach the age of 80 and have remained crime free for the last 10 years (with some exceptions). If an individual still has an outstanding warrant, is subject to life imprisonment, is a dangerous offender, or is still subject to a prohibition order that has not expired, they must wait an additional 10 years, or reach the age of 100 before the RCMP will remove the criminal record.

It won't be removed, it's there forever. If it occurred when you were a kid, the record could be sealed. But if it's after you are an adult it will follow you around forever. Unless expunged subsequent to acquittal, conviction reversed by the Court of Criminal Appeals, or a Governor's pardon, adult criminal records remain forever. (see Code of Criminal Procedure Article 55.01 Right to Expunction) The public only has access to criminal records for seven years but law enforcement have access forever.

How long does a criminal record stay on file in the courthouse public records when the record came into existence when the person was an adult?

A criminal record, on file, in the public records, and not sealed, is on record forever; unless, for some statutory reason, particular to a jurisdiction, that record is expunged (removed, generally, marked or whited-out). Just about every state in the US has provisions for the removal of certain criminal records which meet specific requirements. Most states have a way out depending on the crime or if you had deferred adjudication probation. In Texas felonies can be sealed non disclosed in 5 years, misdemeanors 2 years or immediately. So you have to do some research and dig into what's your states law.
