    Google is intelligent, it won't pay you for the clicks. As long as it was an accident it will be fine, but continue clicking your own ads and you'll probably get suspended sooner or later.

    Probably best not to do it again :)

    not a big deal.
    Accidents tend to happen. Google won't be banning accounts for such accidents.

    You will be ok. Gogle knows it happens and they will make sure your not paid for it. It happens from time to time, people have kids and other people using there PC.

    Yeah, I've always been worried that I would click one of my ads too! Haven't yet though. From the sounds of it, you'll be just fine as long as it doesn't keep happening.

    No more worries! Google will consider your that click as invalid click will not pay you for that click however that click will be counted in clicks tally!

    It happened to me too, and I think it happened at least one time to most AdSense users, no worries
