Optimize for the Future: Invest in Learning Today
Understanding the correlation between advanced coursework in high school and long-term benefits like credit scores can guide parents in advising their teenagers.

Parents should present long-term benefits in a relevant way, highlighting immediate social and personal interests to resonate with teenagers.
