I would like to get my daughter a credit card for college since she'll be away to use in case of emergencys. Is there any you would recommend? Do you think it's a good idea? It would make me feel better.

Compare the various options offered by different banks at www.StudentPlatinum.com - A student credit card comparison site.

Yes, I also think that is a good idea because whenever our child in trouble then they use it. So its helpful to our child. You should get credit card for your daughter.

I applied for a credit card in her name and it was declined, I also tried to get her credit report to see what was going on and it said she had no credit history, what do I do now? Why was she declined if she has no credit?

Credit cards companies are getting pickier about who the approve. A student who was denied on her own may apply for another student credit card with a co-signer. Try www.StudentPlatinum.com for reviews and advice on applying for credit cards.

Its not a good idea rather its a great ide. By this thing you can keep a check on your children that where they are spending money & you can keep on a controll on their spendings. Money in cash is like flowing water u never know where its spended but plastic money u can have a controll on it.

If you get a credit card in college be able to pay for everything you buy. Also dont take it out to the bar it could get expensive!_

I wish you were my mother.. hehe.. very nice of you to give your daughter a credit card.
