i can see how there might be a gray area, but what I note in the case in the OP is what I quoted—that the mother was willing to get the necessary licenses and permits for a business. That says that in that case, everyone understood the the kid was trying to run a business, not just have an occasional cupcake stand. The fact that her grandparents had bought her a refrigerator indicates the same thing. So, if you're trying to run a business, you've got to do it properly and comply with all laws and regulations.
