Credit expert Dave Fulk offers several ways to broach the subject of credit with young people, encouraging parents to maintain an open dialogue that will help their children grow into financially responsible adults.

Tampa, FL — June 17, 2015 — Dave Fulk, president of National Credit Federation, published a new blog post entitled “How to Explain Credit To Your Kids.” In the post, he discusses the importance of talking to tweens and teens about credit cards and credit scores, advising families to take a hands-on approach that will prepare their children for a financially stable future.

Fulk says, “Even though parents want their kids to grow up into smart, capable adults, not all children receive the financial education that can help them make their dreams into reality. While spending and saving are basic concepts that most young people understand well, credit is a trickier subject that merits some explanation, even to the brightest of kids. Whether you decide to trust your teen with a credit card or just want to prepare them for the future, the concept of credit is vital for all parents to relate to their children.”

Dave Fulk, NACSO, CCRA, is the president of National Credit Federation and a national speaker on finance and credit. He has over 10 years of experience in the financial industry, specializing in finance, mortgages, and credit.
