Very Weird Crime

[@Usammityduzntafraidofanythin]

This is why "ages 4 and up" is usually provided for most toys that aren't guaranteed super safe, and then "6 and up" is for like anything that involves doing something physical and "10 and up" is for any sort of mental engagement beyond pretend play or tic tac toe.

[@DefyReality-ll2cg]

[@zebnemma]

Okay sure but I also feel like those parents are probably dumb enough to feed their baby bleach if there didn't exist warning labels... Some people just have zero logical thinking skills it seems. If you can't figure out to not let your very small child play with plastic toys unsupervised they are just straight up dumb or they didn't care/lazy. Like Kindereggs are banned in the USA because apparently the adults there can't figure out to not give those toys to kids who wants to chew or taste everything and end up choking and dying. Sometimes I'm just at awe how fucking stupid the general populace of human kind is... Some people push science forward and create medical miracles an then there's dumbasses who let their toddlers suffocate on plastic toys... And because we have almost no dangers facing us humans anymore the dumbasses does not get deleted from the genepool as nature intended. So as a result we are over time gonna get even more stupid. We are "evolving" into degeneracy.

As a parent of 2 small children (one of them is 11 months old) I never stop getting warned about all the possible dangers to infants especially with small objects. Now I know why they beat that information into new parent's heads. I don't even take a shower if my baby isn't safe asleep in his crib with a monitor in the bedroom. I can't imagine leaving him alone with a small toy that's designed for 3+ years old unsupervised... The 4 month old was the worst!

[@KittenChristy]

I'm gonna be honest, I think the 4 month old was a murder. Like, back then they didn't recommend puree until 6 months old, it's only recently been changed to 4 months- so nothing but formula or mothers milk. Sure, they could have had a toddler, but that toy being in the 4 month old's crib doesn't make sense at all. Babies scratch themselves so they usually wear mits when alone at that age. You are telling me a 4 month old had the coordination to put that over their nose and mouth and suck on it to suction it to their face without it slipping out of their clumsy fingers (even if they weren't covered in soft cloth)? I remember suctioning cups and such to my face as a kid- I can see how it'd be dangerous if the half ball were to form a seal around the nose and chin at an angle. I can understand it with any age above 10+ months. 2 years? Absolutely. I CANNOT see it with a 4 month old. Three/four months is the point at which they just stopped being a potato. Also tv was big back then, and ad's ran every 25 minutes. Even if you weren't watching it, it was on in the background. No way after a month of recall ads did they not see it at least ONCE.

My suspicion is that kids that young don't have a good understanding on how to get out of situations. They might just be thinking about playing with the plastic covering their mouths when they suddenly think "need air, breathe" which ends up obstructing. Because they don't know about relaxing / exhaling to releive the pressure, they just try and brute-force by sucking harder and harder.

[@luvhair255]

@@Fay7666 Yeah the problem-solving just isn't in that young noggin sadly.

[@Caldella]

I also remember it. My friends and I had a discussion in school about the recall - none of us got rid our ours, either. We were pretty miffed at the time, as IIRC the toys were pretty clearly marked for at least ages 3+ if not older. Some of us had been really excited to see them released, and we were pretty mad about them being snatched off the market because someone didn't pay attention to age ratings. It doesn't change the fact that some innocent infants/toddlers suffered or died, though. That's still terrible. Went through a similar situation a few years earlier, when Wonder Balls were recalled for technically containing a non-edible item completely encased in the edible chocolate shell (the middle had a plastic sphere with a surprise toy). I think there are still Wonderballs in the USA now, but they have candy pieces inside instead.

My mom entered me, my older brother, my younger brother, and possibly my younger sister. My younger brother ended up winning twice, so he got two sets of pokemon toys (minus the pokeballs).

@@lightninggreninja4676 yes, but that’s not how the word is used. If someone’s a jewel thief they aren’t a “jewel perpetrator” they’re just a perpetrator or a perpetrator of a jewel theft

[@Adam-gh3bi]

He really took the pacifiers for pleasure lol

[@spiky_dude]

the pokemon toys are mostly the parents fault. those toys weren't designed with babies in mind. babies aren't even supposed to be eating fast food, when they make their transition to real food it should be stuff like cheerios and yogurt

[@chrispito_1612]

And thats why most toys say theyre not suitable for children under 3yrs.

[@matthewparrish]

My best guess as to why they call pacifiers “dummies” is because “dummy” can be a term for something fake, or a decoy, so crash test dummies for example. Pacifiers are meant to be like nipples for babies, so it could be a dummy nipple. That’s my best guess

[@risheeeesh512]

I’m a linguist and this is one of the weird, useless facts I know. But the reason Brits call them dummies is because they make the baby stop making noise. Another word for “mute” is “dumb”. The original meaning of “dumb” is someone unable to speak. And the dummy renders the baby dumb. Hence the current word “dumbfounded” still has a similar meaning. But what you say above could well also be the case, there are many words that have multiple reasons for being what they are.

[@thatguysteve2458]

That seems to be it. Only info I could find was referencing an article in a nursing publication from 19foreverago says a doctor referred to pacifiers as "dummy teats".

[@ghostface0927]

I don’t think Burger King and the toy manufacturers are totally at fault. The parents should also take some responsibility. Why would they leave there child unattended for that long. Sure it was obviously a design flaw but it could have been prevented if the parent paid attention to their children. It’s a tragedy none the less though

[@Aerosklice]

a 4 months old can't eat solid food anyways, so whyyyyy would they get the menu from burger king ?? Also a 4 months old doesn't care about pokemon at all, any adult in front of that kid would know throwing fries at it wouldn't work, I am surprised that child even managed to reach 4 months.

[@ramoash8067]

Charlie being flabbergasted at how young the children were and questioning why they would be eating Burger King, not considering the possibility of them having older siblings who could've left the pokeball around, was very funny. As if eating the Burger King meal was a prerequisite to playing with the toy and it couldn't have happened any other way.

[@Raccnnibal]

I think he's a single child like me cuz I was thinking the same, 'How does a 4 month old eat nuggets?"

The four month old sure, but alot of parents give 1 year olds Burger King or McDonalds , at least where I live. I don’t know why, seems pretty unhealthy for toddlers to be eating.
