In working with high school youth, I realize they do not use the same methods to manage money as we were taught.  Some recall learning to balance a checkbook but that may have been in middle school, and by the time they have checking/saving accounts it may not be fresh in their mind.  It seems like most youth are utilizing online banking to follow their accounts vs. the old fashioned method.  I believe they do need to be taught more about managing personal finance as they look at taking on debt for college and handling future expenses on their own.
