TSA precheck and kids

My daughter and I are flying on points this summer. Each from our own acccount.  I have global entry (which includes TSA precheck) and she is 12 so she can go through with me.  Typically we book together and it will autmatically give her TSA precheck on her ticket...I just want to double check...she won't have issues going through with me if it is not on her ticket...correct?

My husband and I just took our 12 year old grandson to Fl this spring and he was allowed to go through tsa precheck with us.

According to the TSA website: “Family members ages 12 and under traveling with an eligible parent or guardian with a TSA Pre✓® indicator on their boarding pass can participate in expedited screening. Family members 13 and older must go through standard security lanes or should apply for a DHS trusted traveler program.
