No, it's not totally different. Parents getting credit cards on behalf of their child, with or without his/her consent is identity theft.
I didn't have a CREDIT card until I was 19 years old and in the military (and I got it on my own). When I was 16, in high school, and working a part time job, I had a checking account with an ATM only card. My mother's name was on that checking account because I was a minor. There was no "credit" involved at all.
