Tease youngster (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

kid

I believe this is a double definition.

'tease' is the first definition.
(kid can mean to tease or joke)

'youngster' is the second definition.
(I know that kid is a type of youngster)

(Other definitions for kid that I've seen before include "Josh" , "Goat - boy" , "Young animal or child" , "Soft leather" , "Playfully deceive" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
