But my Target spending is being put to good use. The corporation donates five percent of its income (that’s more than [...]
For a kid who gets decent grades and is headed to college next year, my 17-year-old son can be a knucklehead about breakfast. If something isn’t at his fingertips as he stumbles out the door on his way to early-morning football practice, he’ll go without.

Our family came face-to-face with the ferocious fangs of RoboSUE at [...]
The big guy on the bike held up his arm: a long swath of scabs; skin turned to hamburger. Still, he was smiling. “He convinced me to go off the bigger jump,” said Mike Davis, 37, gesturing toward his 5-year-old son, Braedyn. “And here’s the result.”
Davis’ meeting of flesh and dirt doesn’t make him so [...]
