Parents’ Role in Teaching Kids About Money
Parents play a key role in shaping kids’ values and attitudes about money management.
Children who received information about money management at home are more financially literate than those who are only taught money skills only in school.

checkbook register or use duplicate checks that create a carbon copy of each check.

Writing Checks (con’t)
– Fill in the check amount and payee well to the left to prevent someone from adding numbers to make the check larger or altering the payee’s name.
– If you need to correct a mistake on a check, tear up the check, enter it as “void” in your checkbook register and write a new check.
– Don’t sign blank checks—they can be stolen or used by someone else.
– Know where your checkbook is at all times and report a missing checkbook to your bank immediately.

The Value of Good Credit
It is very important in today’s society to have a good credit history.
Bad credit shows up on your “credit report”—information about your past use of credit compiled by companies called credit reporting bureaus.

Young People and Credit
Everyone who has had a credit card or a loan will have a credit report.
Since most young people do not acquire their first credit card until they are 18, only a small number of younger teens have credit reports.
If you allow your teen to be an “authorized user” of your credit card, he or she will have a credit report.
