Teens Banking on Their Parents' Credit Cards
Melissa Dahl writes for the Sacramento Bee about teens and credit cards - and the responsibility for using cards appropriately.
Thirty-one percent of 18-and 19-year-olds have a credit card in their own name, and 68 percent of teens report having never discussed responsible credit card use with a family member, according to Credit Abuse Resistance Education. (Younger teens are harder to track, since their parents have co-signed for the card.)
