One piece of advice, don't let them open up a retirement account. Mrs. Mule thought she was really smart when she was 18 so she opened a Roth with $3000 that she got from her graduation. I discovered it when we got married. The fees have basically eating up any gains and she now makes too much to invest in a roth.

What? Then you need to change whoever it is with. Get a Vanguard, Schwab, etc. and the fees are incredibly low. Your Roth account has nothing to do with "making too much to invest", that is 100% dependent on your year to year income.
