It improves academic performance, school attendance, interpersonal skills, job readiness, problem solving skills, and decision-making abilities.
Entrepreneurship provides the perfect arena to experiment with career paths, business ideas, and self-identities.
Teen entrepreneurship is the mature equivalent of playing dress-up.
