To Help Youth
In Costa Rica
Youth Face Problem
Of Learning Values
In Today's Spending
Affluent teenagers are not get
ting the guidance they need to
manage their money .successful
ly, say two visiting professors
at Oregon State University.
Florence Lloyd, an Ohio State
University home management
professor, and Dr. Rose Mary
Bengel, home economics educa
tion professor from Pennsylvania
State University, made this
assessment to an OSU consumer
credit workshop for high school
and junior college teachers.
While teenagers are spending
more than $11 billion annually
say the home economists, they
don t necessarily learn to handle
their money in a way that will
help them to meet the kinds of
problems they will face as
adults.
"They own cars. Thev have
their own charge accounts. They
buy radios, stereos, cosmetics,
with parents buying the necessities."
"When they marry, they want
to start out where their parents
left off. They charge and over
charge, without knowing the ef
fect it will have upon them in
their later life," charges Dr.
Bengel.
In the past, say the home
economics professors, consumer
education focused on buying
rood, clothing and other goods,
These programs empha sized
quality and budgeting to save
for the big items. .
Now the approach is teaching
an awareness of the difference
between needs and wants, and
how individual value systems
and attitudes influence buying
habits.
Workshop participa n t s will
spend one class session listen
ing to proceedings of a bank
ruptcy case to better see where
unwise use of credit sometimes
leads families.
