Kim Vaccarella was so confident in her business idea that she emptied her children's $60,000 college fund to bring it to life. Today, Vaccarella, 54, is the CEO and founder of Secaucus, New Jersey-based Bogg Bag, a waterproof tote bag-maker on track to top $100 million in annual sales this year, she says. But in 2008, she was a mom of two with an idea for a more practical beach bag. Two years later, Vaccarella's company brought in more than $1 million in annual sales, she recently told Entrepreneur, and she quit her job to run Bogg Bag full time. The sturdy, easily washable bags went viral on TikTok and Instagram earlier this year, contributing to another significant boost in sales.

Walking pneumonia infections rose nationwide as kids returned to school this fall. Look out for a persistent cough, fever, and fatigueHistorically, walking pneumonia has been most common among school-aged children. People who've recently had the flu are also at increased risk for developing walking pneumonia. In rare cases, walking pneumonia can prompt brain swelling, kidney issues, and difficulty breathing, and people with lung issues, and weakened immune systems may be especially at risk of hospitalization with walking pneumonia. Without any testing, the daughter was diagnosed with walking pneumonia, and prescribed a Z-Pak (azithromycin).

To be sure, a college degree doesn't guarantee a higher-paying job.

Brittany Randall believes her 15-year-old daughter contracted E. coli after eating at McDonald's. My 15-year-old daughter, Kamberlyn, ate the same meal at McDonald's, a Quarter Pounder with cheese and extra pickles, on September 25 and September 27. Ten days later, we were transferred to the nearest children's hospital for her to receive dialysis treatment for a life-threatening complication of E. coli. Kamberlyn told me she felt a bit better after receiving fluids from the hospital.

Instead of going with 529 plans, we went with UTMA custodial accounts instead; here's why. Here's why we decided UTMA accounts were best for our family situation. UTMA accounts are flexibleWhile 529 plans must be used for education-related expenses, the options for UTMAs are much broader. Like 529 plans, UTMA account contributions are post-tax, meaning that income taxes have already been paid on the money being deposited. AdvertisementWe realize 529 plans would give us more direct control over our children's spending, but sooner or later, they're going to have to grow up.

AdvertisementNorway wants to stop children under 15 from using social media, proposing one of the world's toughest bans. The Scandinavian nation already restricts social media more than most, with a ban for under-13s. The Norwegian prime minister, Jonas Gahr Støre, told the Norwegian tabloid VG that new regulation would indeed be "an uphill battle." The Norwegian Media Authority in August estimated that 53% of nine-year-olds, 58% of 10-year-olds, and 72% of 11-year-olds use social media. Anglero said it's common for Oslo families to use social media, whether to coordinate children's sports teams or just to chat.

Andrew Garfield and Sesame Street's Elmo recently tackled an emotion rarely discussed in children's programming: grief. In the clip, Garfield discusses missing his late mother, who died of pancreatic cancer in 2019. "She passed away not too long ago, and you know, I just miss her," he tells Elmo. When the Muppet offers his condolences, Garfield reassures him that feeling upset or grieving someone is OK. "That sadness is kind of a gift," Garfield says.
