For dependent children, what is the definition of a student? Is it at school, post-secondary or college/university?

My child is under 10 years old and I don't know if I am supposed to click 'Yes" for whether they were  a student in the tax year

While your child would be considered a student in  general, only children enrolled in college, university, or another post-secondary school are considered students in TurboTax Online.
