		<description><![CDATA[Oh. My. God. I know we&#8217;re all worried about teen pregnancy rates, but maybe we should be worrying about tweens, as well. A 10-year-old has given birth in Spain, according to the Associated Press.  Spanish authorities say the father of the child is a minor too.  Spanish press reports say the girl is actually Romanian, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Every now and then we run across weird children&#8217;s products. And sometimes it&#8217;s REALLY weird. Can we talk about the Musical Spongebob Thermometer? We sort of understand the appeal of a toothbrush that plays Hannah Montana songs to induce kids to brush long enough. But a bright yellow Spongebob thermometer that sings while it&#8217;s stuck [...]]]></description>

School principals say they&#8217;re a &#8220;distraction&#8221; because kids fiddle with them in class, and trade them on the playground. Um, people? It&#8217;s the end of May. They&#8217;re kids.

The FAA is investigating why a child directed air traffic at New York City&#8217;s main airport a couple of weeks ago.
