I only received 2 letters last month! Topic: Write a positive letter, showing your support for the soldiers who are putting their lives at risk. Perhaps tell the soldier something about yourself, but nothing too personal. Focus the letter on your appreciation for what the soldier is doing and on general topics that would likely be of interest. Perhaps write about sports or current events. Write in a conversational tone as if you were writing to an old friend. Remember do not include anything too personal!

Do not answer the phone unless its an emergency. 7. Don’t get distracted.

When would I use these things during a phone call? What things to I already do concerning phone etiquette? What is one thing I need to work on with phone etiquette?

Teens spend about $200 billion a year on toys, games, clothing, movies, live events, arcade games and electronics — all forms of immediate gratification that run counter to sound long-term money practices. Your 13-year-old is about to chart a course through this wasteland of spending and would benefit from having a grip on a few core concepts. By now, she should be well acquainted with saving and understand how impulse and peer pressure can set back her longer term goals. She should be able to research products, comparison shop, and make good decisions about what offers the most value. Your budding teen should also be skeptical about advertising claims and familiar with identity theft. She should know how to fill out a job application, be able to set up a personal spending budget, and understand the difference between stocks and bonds and mutual funds. Her three jars should be emptied; the money should be in a bank account with check-writing and ATM card privileges and she should know how to make deposits and withdrawals and track her balance.
