do you really think parents are supposed to stand and stare at their kids 24/7?
if something is sold for a kid, it should be safe for a kid.
you're not a parent, are you?
no, they are supposed to TEACH... their children well.
From the company website... main page...
We only market to adults.
I am, and I would not put this product where a young child could get to it... I would not buy it for a young child, as it is not age appropriate... and I would teach my young child not to go touch it if they saw it. It's called parenting, something I feel I am quite adept at.
I would love to know how a bunch of magnetic beeds teach children.....
you're right... they should make unsafe toys for children
Yeah we need to childproof the world.....it's up to parents to do this stuff, I have no problem with labels or guides to how old the child should be for a toy. but I played with the 3.5" GI Joes as a kid, and they had all kinds of parts you could swallow, but we made it through...
My dad always said, " You can't make the world idiot proof because idiots are so ingenious."you're right... they should make unsafe toys for children

I used to work ambulance and saw lots of preventable accidents.
One common problem, even among parents who watch their children, is that there are often children of different ages in the household. The older children will have toys with small parts and sometimes the little parts end up getting swallowed by their baby brother or sister because it got left laying around or dropped on the floor. Stuff can happen under the best of circumstances, but parents should try to be on top of things. We are responsible for our chidren and no government warning will change ignorant parents into intelligent ones. Shutting a company down is stupid. The same parents who would give those magnets to toddlers will find something else equally dangerous. Unless a government bureaucrat inspects every home every day, there will be accidents waiting to happen.
Most children choke on their food. I used to cut hotdogs lengthwise before allowing my children to have them. They stayed on the bun better and posed less of a choking hazard. Hotdogs are one of the worst things for a child to choke on because they fit like a cork in the throat. Balloons are also a big danger. Is Obama shutting the hotdog and balloon companies down? Children who are allowed to run around while eating are more likely to choke. Amazing how many parents don't insist that the children sit at the table or in a high chair.
Government can't stop every accident. Under the best of circumstances, things will happen. When it comes to ignorant parents, nothing will work because the world is a dangerous place.
If parents have no common sense, the child won't be safe. But, hey, let's put more people out of work because parents don't bother to read labels and ensure their child has age-appropriate toys.

not the magnets, you moron.. THE PARENTS. The parents are supposed to teach their children what is and is not safe to touch.
Jillian made 3 statements, each of my responses was a reply to one of those statements... in order.
My God, you can be obtuse sometimes.

"We are deeply disappointed that the CPSC has decided to go after our firm - and magnets in general. Magnets have been around for centuries and are used for all sorts of purposes. Our products are marketed to those 14 and above and out of over half a billion magnets in the market place CPSC has received reports of less than two-dozen cases of misuse. We worked with the Commission in order to do an education video less than 9 months ago, so we are shocked they are taking this action. We find it unfair, unjust and un-American," added Zucker. "We will vigorously fight this action taken by President Obama's hand picked agency."
There have been about 12 reported cases of children swallowing buckyballs and being taken to the emergency room.
Is the government gonna stop making coins with that same logic? What is it that the government really wants? One has to wonder

They should make them set to explode when coming into contact with stomach acid. Clean up the gene pool, ya know ?
A 30-year old woman was taken to the emergency room after accidentally swallowing a butter knife, the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) reported.
The company makes an unsafe product
They should go out of business
you're right... they should make unsafe toys for children
I miss Jarts.

ANd they were perfectly safe, IF used as directed. When you throw them AT people, of fucking COURSE people will get hurt.
I had a set growing up. The directions were VERY specific about how to use them, what direction to aim (away from anyone), etc. We loved playing with them and not one of the kids in my neighborhood was ever injured by them.
