OK, this time it’s not about lead or cadmium content, it's about… wait for it… a perfectly rounded plastic ignition key (see the purple nub?) and it's outrageous potential for danger. I have to say, this massive Fisher Price recall kinda makes me laugh… and I do realize that’s a tad inappropriate. I can’t help but regret that I didn’t come up with the brilliant idea of letting my daughter ride her Dora bike at 100 KM unattended! I’ll just have to get brainstorming for an even more creative lawsuit... CA-CHING!
Now, I do understand the ‘small parts’ concerns, although how many of us have actually banished all items smaller than baseballs from arms reach for fear of choking the chitlens? The grapes from the crisper? Felt circles on dining room chairs? Buttons on OUR clothes??

Felt circles!!! I never thought of that! A radio personality did comment that the recall is more likely to protect the brand than it is to protect the children. Something like 12 minor injuries in 5 years? Hope I'm wrong.
ReplyDeleteIsn't pretty much every recall about "protecting the brand"? Lawsuits are kinda bad for business...
