O.k. Don't see a problem there.

Teach a 5 yr old to use a credit card?

Nightmare in the making! For one thing, I don't that's legal anywhere in the U.S. was just recently able to get my teen a preloaded MasterCard connected to my PayPal account; I believe the minimum age for that was 12 and requires parental controls on the account.
Haha...chalk that one up to sleep deprivation from yesterday's adventure. Was just thinking about how a kid would deal with the "cashless cabin" concept most airlines have instituted, but I guess it's not that hard to pack a day's worth of food for a 5-yo.
