Your Child, Ages 12-18

Dear Parents,

Back to school is here again. Ensure a smooth start to the year by saving money on school shopping, previewing this year's subject matter, and helping to assuage your teen's back-to-school anxiety.

Facebook, instant messages, "sexting" -- find out what teens are really doing online.

Finally, teach your kids to save money by setting an example. Save $100 or more this month, and give your family's finances a boost.
