6 Steps to Help Your Child Build Meaningful Connections

(K12) - Kicking a red rubber ball across the blacktop. Waving to a friend in a busy hallway. Trading snacks over a lunch table. These simple moments between children may seem small, but they matter more than we think.  

It’s in these everyday interactions that children learn some of life’s most important skills like sharing, resolving conflict, showing empathy, and managing their emotions. These skills help shape emotional growth and set kids up for long-term success. In essence, socialization isn’t just “nice-to-have" in childhood; it’s a developmental necessity. 

But today, many children aren’t getting the consistent, meaningful social interaction they need. Even before the pandemic, research showed that kids were spending less time together than previous generations. 

There are a number of reasons for this–but one primary factor is that not all students have the same access to social opportunities during the school day. 

Some move frequently because of military service, which means starting over often. Others experience bullying, exclusion, or safety concerns that make in-person schools feel unwelcoming. Some live in rural areas, are homebound due to illness, or learn remotely and can miss out on informal, everyday interactions. And others simply haven’t found a community where they feel they belong.  

Thankfully, families can take simple steps to help children feel connected, build friendships, and strengthen social skills. 

Niyoka McCoy, Chief Learning Officer at K12, shares some ideas for getting started in your community: 

  • Volunteering at local food banks, animal shelters, or churches 

  • Library activities like reading clubs or STEM camps 

  • Community activities including theater, martial arts, choir, or pottery 

  • Recreational centers with pools, camps, classes, and sports teams 

  • Youth esports leagues where children can experience teamwork 

For students who struggle to feel connected at school, whether due to frequent moves, safety concerns, or health challenges that keep them at home, McCoy offers a solution that might seem unexpected: virtual learning. 

“Many families share that online school was what their child needed to feel part of a community,” shares McCoy. “Students at K12-powered online schools attend live classes, participate in group projects, chat with friends in a virtual campus, attend in-person field trips, and compete in national competitions. Here, they can find a place where they feel safe and belong.” 

For many families, that sense of belonging was what their child needed. And every child deserves the chance to feel connected, no matter their circumstances.  

Baby Boomers: Exercise Caution Amid Historical Shift In Assets

(NewsUSA) - The balance of the world’s wealth is shifting.  

Over the next two decades, Millennials and Gen Z are anticipated to reshape the world’s ultra-wealthy population, gradually overtaking Baby Boomers as the largest class of individuals with a personal worth exceeding $30 million.

But Baby Boomers aren’t stepping aside just yet.

More than 78 million Baby Boomers are looking to retire within the next 10 to 15 years, but they’re retiring later and at a more gradual pace than previous generations. The average planned retirement age now falls between 65 and 69, a marked shift from the past in which 65 was considered the age to retire.

And Baby Boomers aren’t just working longer – they’re also holding on to their power. Baby Boomers own more than 65 percent of businesses with employees, totaling nearly four million companies and controlling an estimated 80 percent of total U.S. net worth.

Increasingly, Baby Boomers are following more gradual exit paths from work than previous generations, easing into retirement and holding on to control long past traditional retirement age and gradually exiting the workforce. 

These gradual exits can pose serious challenges for future generations, particularly as it comes to succession planning. Despite this generation’s significant wealth and economic influence, 78 percent of Baby Boomer business owners do not have a formal exit or succession plan in place. 

This failure to plan can leave Baby Boomers vulnerable to losing their wealth and their legacy, as illustrated by Sumner Redstone, the media mogul behind Viacom and CBS. Though Redstone, who was in his nineties at the time, eventually designated his daughter as his successor, the path to succession involved public family conflict, lawsuits and reputational damage. This complex succession battle has marred his empire-building legacy. 

Baby Boomers may also find themselves vulnerable to manipulation from family members. Zygmunt Solorz, a Polish billionaire and media entrepreneur, is a prime example. Solorz’s children reportedly manipulated him into initiating succession protocol before he was ready to step down. At age 69, he is now fighting to retain control of the business empire he built from the ground up.

As Baby Boomers approach retirement, it’s critical that they take swift, proactive steps to safeguard themselves from financial and personal risks. 

The wealth shift is inevitable. But how it unfolds will depend in large part on how well today’s ultra-wealthy prepare for tomorrow.

Redefining retirement: Building financial confidence in an era of change

(Erin Culek, Head of Financial Protection and Retirement Solutions, Guardian) - For many Americans, the traditional picture of retirement is no longer. Gone is the long-viewed notion of retirement being about reaching a milestone birthday or a defined transition out of the workforce. Rather, today’s retirement is flexible and personal.

While exciting, a redefined retirement has led to some surprises and challenges for Americans. Many subsequently feel unprepared. With the support of a financial consultant, however, individuals can navigate this new retirement landscape with confidence, defining retirement on their own terms and in a way that accounts for their unique financial, health, and lifestyle needs.

Here’s what you need to know.

How longevity is impacting retirement

As Americans live longer, they are eager to make the most of their retirement years. At the same time, however, longevity and an extended retirement are impacting Americans’ mental, physical, and financial health.

According to a new report from Guardian, 54% of retirees say they are in good financial health, providing them with the financial freedom to pursue passions, travel to dream destinations, or spend quality time with family. To fund a longer retirement, however, 73% of people say they plan to continue working part-time in retirement.

Enjoying a longer retirement also means staying physically healthy. Unfortunately, only 39% of current workers and 40% of retirees rate their health as very good or excellent. Overall, 47% of retirees thought they’d be in better health in retirement.

Longevity also impacts Americans’ mental and emotional wellness. Although 60% of retirees say they have good mental health, 34% said they didn’t expect to feel so bored or miss their careers. Additionally, 27% were surprised by how lonely they feel or by how little time they are spending with family in retirement.

Getting the guidance you need

To support their well-being in retirement, many retirees and workers are taking a close look at their planning strategies. One in five retirees have regrets about how they’ve prepared for retirement. With future lifespan anticipated to increase, today’s workers are even more concerned—40% say they have regrets about how they’ve prepared financially for retirement.

As Americans live and work longer, more education about retirement income sources is needed. For example, despite Americans saying their top financial concerns are not having enough money to last through retirement and not having a source of guaranteed income in retirement, just 30% of workers know that annuities can provide guaranteed income for life. Younger workers face similar education gaps. Despite a steep decline in the number of workers with access to a pension, 55% of Gen Z expect to use a pension in retirement.

Despite the complexity of modern retirement, fewer than half of retirees (48%) and current workers (40%) have sought guidance from a financial consultant. When workers and retirees did work with a financial consultant, research showed they were much more likely to say they are on track for retirement than those who don’t.

Connecting with a financial consultant can help Americans take charge of their retirement—no matter how long it lasts. Financial consultants can provide support in countless ways, including:

  • Exploring multiple retirement scenarios: Eighty-four percent of people expect to retire at a specific age, but only 52% actually retired when they thought they would. A financial consultant can help you understand potential retirement timelines and how to plan for various scenarios.
  • Evaluating retirement income options: With almost half of Americans worried about having a guaranteed source of income in retirement, a financial consultant can help you assess options such as annuities that can play an important role in retirement planning. The only product on the private marketplace that can provide guaranteed income for life, annuities can help diversify a retirement portfolio and offer a range of potential benefits, from protection against market loss to tax-deferred growth.
  • Considering future mental and physical health needs: Given that nearly half of retirees said they thought they would be healthier than they actually are in retirement, a financial consultant can offer insight on how to help address these factors through planning, particularly amid rising healthcare costs.

The bottom line

In the years to come, what it means to be retired—and how to prepare for this chapter—is only going to continue to evolve. Whether your retirement is on the horizon or still decades away, working with a financial consultant can help you approach the planning journey with confidence to support your mental, physical, and financial wellness over the long term.

Marine Toys for Tots’ 78th Holiday Campaign Delivers Hope to Children Living in Poverty

(NewsUSA) - As the first signs of the holiday season appear across America, the Marine Toys for Tots Program is rallying the Nation’s compassion. With the launch of its 78th annual Holiday Campaign, this cherished tradition renews its mission to deliver not just gifts, but hope, dignity, and joy to millions of children living in poverty.

From October 1st through December 25th, U.S. Marines, Local Community Organizations (LCOs), and thousands of dedicated volunteers will unite in nearly 880 local Toys for Tots chapters across all 50 states, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Their shared goal is simple yet profound: to ensure that no child wakes up forgotten on Christmas morning.

When nearly 40% of American children live in households struggling to make ends meet, holiday joy can feel heartbreakingly out of reach. For many families, warmth, stability, and even play have become luxuries. Toys for Tots stands ready to provide holiday hope—one toy, one book, one act of kindness at a time.

Toys for Tots recognized National Child Poverty Day on October 17th, a day to remember that behind every statistic is a child who deserves to feel seen and valued. Through the collective generosity of communities nationwide, Toys for Tots delivers far more than toys—together with our donors and volunteers, we deliver hope, emotional relief, and a belief in a brighter future.

“Bringing the magic of Christmas to children in need takes a united effort,” says LtGen James B. Laster, USMC (Retired), CEO of the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation. “When we hear of a family facing hardship, our Marines and volunteers rise to the occasion—working tirelessly to make sure no child is left without hope and joy during Christmastime.”

Last year alone, Toys for Tots distributed more than 30 million toys, books, and gifts to nearly 13 million children—the largest outreach in the Program’s history, but the need remains urgent. More families are reaching out, with parents working multiple jobs just to put food on the table and praying for a Christmas miracle. That’s when the spirit of Toys for Tots comes alive—when ordinary people transform hardship into holiday magic.

That magic found its way to three-year-old Nico, who had one simple wish: a “doggy.” After losing their home, Nico and his mother, Mira, were living out of a car. “I felt like the world’s worst mom,” Mira said. “We had no home, no presents—how could I possibly give him a dog?”

Thanks to the compassion of donors and the swift efforts of local volunteers, Nico awoke on Christmas morning to find a walkable toy dog and a book about dog breeds. “I hadn’t seen him smile like that since we lost our home,” Mira recalled. “That night, he fell asleep holding the toy in his arms.”

For a child in crisis, a toy isn’t just a gift—it’s a message that says you are loved and remembered, and that your dreams matter.

Throughout this holiday season, Toys for Tots reminds every American that the smallest act of giving can change a life. You can help create more moments like Nico’s—where a child’s smile says everything.

2025 Telematics Report Reveals Industry Growing Pains Amid Rapid Tech Adoption

(NewsUSA) - Commercial auto insurance and fleet safety are meeting the demands of modern-day risk management by analyzing telematics, but more work is needed to optimize this information and put it into action in the industry, according to results of a new report from SambaSafety, the leading provider of cloud-based driver risk management solutions.

Telematics is used by commercial insurers to capture driving patterns from telematics devices their fleet customer use, such as visibility into riskier driving such as speed, mileage, and braking— empowering insurers to collaborate with fleets on tailored coverage and proactive risk consulting strategies.

The 2025 SambaSafety Telematics Report: Uncovering Market Dynamics and Technology Trends, shows that telematics is front and center in the risk and safety ecosystem, according to SambaSafety CEO Matt Scheuing.

“The current state of commercial auto reflects an industry under strain, but also one on the edge of transformation, with telematics at the center,” said Matt Scheuing, CEO of SambaSafety. “When fleets and insurers connect through shared data and trust, we move closer to a market that prevents losses instead of reacting to them. 

“At SambaSafety, we’re closing that gap for millions of drivers through our Risk Cloud, integrating telematics, court, DOT and claims data to deliver actionable insights and targeted training—through our newly enhanced driver app. With our SambaSafety Verified program, we’re also helping insurers identify and reward fleets that actively manage risk. Together, these advancements represent the next step in connecting our customers through shared data, smarter insights and measurable safety outcomes.” 

The new report includes survey responses from industries including trucking & transportation, construction, energy, utilities, government, and healthcare. SambaSafety collected responses from 152 individuals from fleets, 180 insurance brokers and 70 insurance carriers, all based in North America, in June and July 2025.

Overall, 88% of fleets reported using telematics for safety reasons, and 95% considered driver training important.

However, the complexity of the data and technical challenges of integration were mentioned often as barriers to using telematics more widely in optimizing insurance.

Nearly two-thirds (66%) of fleets said that “interpreting or acting on the data” was a challenge, and 58% of fleet drivers said that linking drivers to their data remains an operational concern.

Telematics data is reshaping relationships between commercial fleets and insurers, but there is room for improvement in collaboration, according to the SambaSafety survey. Although 41% of fleets reported that use of telematics lowered their insurance premiums, 70% of fleets rarely interact with insurers around telematics, creating a gap in shared innovation and risk reduction. When insurers initiate telematics discussions, fleets report strong partnership in risk reduction—yet 79% of non-engaged fleets say that outreach never happens.

The 2025 SambaSafety Telematics Report: Uncovering Market Dynamics and Technology Trends is available for download. For more information and to access the report, visit sambasafety.com.

Smartphone App Offers Flexible, Affordable Way for Working Adults to Finish Accredited College Degrees

(NewsUSA) - A Michigan university unveils SOAR, a new smartphone-based degree program that brings college within reach for busy adults — at half the cost.

For millions of adults, finishing college was never about ability — it was about circumstances. Jobs, family responsibilities and rising tuition costs often forced higher education onto the back burner.

About 750 adults leave college every day in the United States. Most don’t fail academically; they simply run out of time, money, or both. For those who still dream of completing their degrees, the barriers can feel insurmountable.

That’s where the SOAR™ by Cornerstone University app comes in. 

Launched in 2025, SOAR is the nation’s first fully accredited bachelor’s degree designed to be completed entirely on a smartphone. The program currently offers a Bachelor of Science in strategic business management, preparing students with leadership and business skills employers consistently demand.

SOAR stands out for three reasons. It’s half the cost of the average accredited business degree, making it one of the most affordable in the nation. It’s flexible, with new classes starting every two weeks and lessons delivered in short, smartphone-ready modules so students can learn on the go. And it’s respected, carrying full accreditation from the Higher Learning Commission.

For adults in the workforce, that means finishing a degree without stepping away from their jobs or families. For many parents, SOAR also removes the difficult choice between investing in their children’s tuition and finally finishing their own. With radically affordable tuition, both become possible.

“For too long, adults who wanted to go back to school were forced to choose between their education and their responsibilities,” said Dr. Gerson Moreno-Riaño, president of Cornerstone University. “SOAR was built to remove those barriers — it’s a degree that works with your life, not against it.”

Take Alicia, a single mom in Michigan who enrolled this year. “I like to SOAR when I’m getting ready in the morning and driving to work,” she said. “I often log into the SOAR app after dinner when my little one is settled or in bed.”

Her story reflects the core mission of SOAR. It makes higher education accessible to those who thought the door had closed.

With looming retirements creating leadership gaps in the workforce, programs like SOAR aren’t just helping individuals — they’re preparing the next generation of business leaders. And this is just the start. New disciplines and advanced degrees are already in development, expanding options for learners who wish to continue their studies beyond a bachelor’s degree.

For adults ready to reclaim their dream of finishing college, SOAR offers a path forward: half the cost, fully accredited, and designed for real life.

The Great Wealth Transfer Is Happening Now. Are Families Ready?

(NewsUSA) - Over the next two decades, more than $84 trillion in wealth is expected to transfer from Baby Boomers to younger generations.

This so-called "Great Wealth Transfer" marks the largest intergenerational handoff of wealth in history. The question is: are families truly prepared?

Without proper planning, this wealth can be lost in a generation. Data shows 70 percent of families lose a portion of their wealth due to interfamilial conflict, with nearly 60 percent of estates ending up under court control because of improper estate planning. 

This intergenerational wealth transfer puts familial relationships under unprecedented strain, heightened in today's globalized and blended family structures, where cross-border assets and multiple marriages add new legal and emotional elements.

Blended families and ones with estranged members face particularly challenges, with inheritance issues often magnified in households with ex-spouses, new partners, or children from previous marriages. 

More than half of wills are contested among these families. Disputes can arise when surviving spouses are granted significant control or perceived favoritism creates resentment among heirs.

Inheritance battles among heirs aren't the only risk. Older, high-net-worth individuals may find themselves vulnerable to manipulation. Potential heirs may exploit weakened relationships or unclear succession plans to access wealth prematurely – or even take control of family businesses.

While Rupert Murdoch's high-profile legal dispute with his children ended well for him in protecting his empire and succession plan, the ongoing legal case involving another media mogul, Polish billionaire Zygmunt Solorz illustrates the complexities at play. Solorz is entangled in a dispute with his three children over control of his media empire. 

Court filings suggest that the billionaire was manipulated by his children into initiating a premature succession process, exploiting the company's financial holdings in Liechtenstein and engaging in a hostile takeover of his business - leading to a continuous decline in stock prices and harming shareholders.

While these two examples involve ultra wealthy individuals, the cases serve as a warning to baby boomers on the importance of wealth management and asset protection to prevent interfamilial conflict especially for family businesses from Wall Street to Main Street.

Improper handling can fracture families, derail business empires, and lead to significant loss in generational wealth. 

With the Great Wealth Transfer underway, thoughtful, professional, and forward-looking preparation is needed to protect assets, preserve relationships and legacies across generations. 

School choice is growing, but Hispanic participation remains unclear

(NewsUSA) - One in four students in the United States today is Hispanic. Yet, despite this growing presence, Latino families are still underrepresented in many states' public and private school choice programs. In most cases, we don’t even know by how much.

From the limited demographic data available, including a recent analysis by Conoce tus Opciones Escolares and Child Trends, we can see one clear trend: where states do report, Hispanic families are often underrepresented. When it comes to private school scholarships and education savings accounts, Hispanic students typically participate at lower rates than their share of the overall student population. But in most states, demographic breakdowns don’t exist. The data are incomplete, outdated, or never collected, leaving us with only a partial picture.

That lack of reporting is the real issue. Without consistent state-level data, we can’t know whether programs are reaching Hispanic families fairly, or whether barriers like language access, outreach, or eligibility rules are keeping them out. The gaps we do see suggest inequities, and the gaps in the data itself make it impossible to know the full story.

Still, we know Hispanic families are exploring their options. Today, one in three charter school students nationwide is Hispanic. At the same time, families are turning to homeschooling in new ways. About 18% of families who reported homeschooling in 2023-2024 were Hispanic. Those are not small numbers; they show that Latino families are active participants in school choice, even if official reporting doesn’t fully capture them.

In a national survey conducted in June, nearly three out of four Hispanic parents surveyed (73%) said they had considered a new school for their child last year, and more than half said they expect to do so again this year. The reasons were familiar: moving to a new community, children entering school for the first time, or transitioning between grade levels; others pointed to dissatisfaction with their child’s current school, but the results make clear that Hispanic parents are engaged in exploring school choices for their children.

But when participation data are missing, the story told to the public is incomplete.

As a Latina, I know how much families sacrifice to give their children opportunities they never had. My parents believed education could change the course of our lives, and they showed me that school could open doors that once seemed out of reach. Today, I see that same determination in Hispanic families across the country. Parents are making tough choices and searching for schools where their children will be safe, supported, and inspired. The least the system can do is make sure those opportunities are visible and that participation is reported effectively.

Hispanic Heritage Month is a time to honor the contributions of Latino communities. It should also be a time to recognize how much families are shaping the future of American education. Every parent wants the same thing: to see their children grow, succeed, and dream bigger. That means making sure programs are not only available but understandable to the families who need them.

Free resources are available to help parents explore their options in Spanish through Conoce tus Opciones Escolares at opcionesescolares.com, and in English at myschoolchoice.com. Sometimes one of the most powerful things we can do is share those resources with a neighbor, a friend, or a family member. For many Latino families, simply having access to clear, trusted information in Spanish can change the path their children take in school.

The next step is simple: states must report participation clearly and consistently. Until they do, the full role of Hispanic families in shaping education will remain underestimated and unseen.

Krissia Campos Spivey is the senior director of navigation programs and partnerships at Conoce tus Opciones Escolares, a National School Choice Awareness Foundation project that helps U.S. families who speak Spanish explore their K-12 education options and choose a great school for their children. Krissia is Salvadoran-American and lives in Wake Forest, North Carolina.
