If 10 million units have been sold and there have only been five reported incidents, I kinda feel like that's an issue with the user, not the product. Some of these toys just required better adult supervision.

[@ThatSoddingGamer]

The issue with those floaters is, even if they were super reliable (which they apparently weren't), it encourages the development of a bad habit; not minding babies/toddlers when they most need attention. In theory the devices could serve as a safety net, allowing the baby to have more independent fun as the guardian takes a more hands-off role of watching them just in case something goes wrong, it's a slippery slope, since the one watching them might develop a habit of looking away for longer and longer periods of time as the device keeps doing its job consistently. It only takes one failure to kill, however. I, unfortunately, could see someone getting used to it working as intended, getting distracted by some minor crisis (like another child crying, or a loud noise elsewhere, etc.) and just thinking 'the baby'll be fine, they've got their floatie thing, I"ll be back in less than a minute' and most likely that IS the sort of event that occurred on many occasions and they were apparently proven right, which just reinforces the bad thought process. When events like that happen normally, the guardian would either take the baby out of the water, bringing them with them, or laying them wrapped in a towel on the bathroom floor or somewhere they can't fall from, or some other idea. The fact that no deaths resulted from these devices is actually a little surprising. Most likely the times they failed were when the babies were being observed (which, again in theory, should have been 'at all times'). Honestly, the device doesn't even look comfortable. It just seems like a _bad idea_ to put so much potential strain on a baby's neck in the first place, even if in theory it should be fine (between the water buoyancy and the floaty's air cushion), it just seems like the babies are essentially being supported by the equivalent of a soft clamp around their neck.

We’ve nerfed everything so much the dummies never learned the hard lessons.

[@SunBunz]

I owned 7 of these toys, never got hurt, never _swallowed_ anything and was an age old enough to not be stupid enough to do so. This doesn’t apply to all of these, but parents are often careless, don’t teach their kids common sense, leave them unsupervised and buy toys for kids WAY too young.

[@cuddyfox6973]

A 4 year old died while swallowing the toy that is made for 12 and up. Even if the parent buys the older sibling the toy, the toy should be in the siblings bedroom if not played with. On top of that, some parents give these young kids those toys, regardless the warning.

Some of these toys require a bit of intelligence to operate, like Creepy Crawlers. I had Creepy Crawlers. Sometimes, the mold grabber would get janky and the mold would come out crooked or the wrong way, and it would fall. You had to be smarter than the toy and just let it fall, knowing the hot mold could burn you. I had so much fun with Creepy Crawlers as a kid, especially with the glow-in-the-dark goo. Mixing and matching different colors. Sometimes I wish I could go back to the early 90s.

Given that Kinder Eggs were banned for having small toys in them; especially since children are known to just wolf things down without thinking, i frankly blame parents for not checking the products before giving them to their kids. Kinder Eggs state on the box "contains a fun surprise inside!" And a CLEAR warning that the package contained inedible items. The PR nightmare from that was unreal; and frankly i honestly think the lack of common sense and paying attention to the label that says "not for children 0-3" should have been a massive given. I remembered being young enough to see a kinder egg and seeing the warnings on them. I get it; small toy parts are a choking hazard. But little children are dumb; they dont think "small toy parts are dangerous" they think "candy!" And eat it like they wont get another one. I seriously blame parents for that fiasco; not the company, i hate saying that, but the old vintage kinder eggs have Warnings on the packaging... So how the hell did the parents win the lawsuits with clear warning labels on the packages that say "not for ages 0-3" and "contains items that are not suitable for human consumption"

Even as someone who is an Eagle Scout, I had no idea that toy companies had sold wood burning kits like they had. For those not familiar with Scouting, our safety guide is called the Guide to Safe Scouting. There are many activities in Scouting that are reserved for older scouts and adults, such as the likes of the wood burning kits or other crafts like this. I am glad the kits were recalled!

[@theanimeguy13ify]

They're other toys that are not dangerous, like Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Tech Deck, Barbie, Bratz, Transformers, G.I Joe, He-Man, Air Hogs, Monster Jam, Power Rangers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Star Wars, etc.

None of my favorite toys were on the list, but I remember Jeff Foxworthy talking about wood-burning kits ("A metal stick that heated up to 5,000 degrees, and a short cord that guaranteed you were always right next to the drapes when you played with it!") and lawn darts ("You catch one of THOSE with your head, you're gettin' coloring books for Christmas for the rest of your life!") on one of his comedy albums. 😂😂😂

When I was 6 we visited Chicago from Australia in the 1980s, my parents banned me from playing with my cap gun because it looked like a Mac-10 and they thought I'd be shot by police. That sort of thing just didn't happen in Australia.

[@Bayan1905]

And as a retired law enforcement officer here in New York, that whole claim is WAY overblown. Most times it does happen is because someone takes the fake gun, modifies it by removing the orange tip that is now by law on toy guns or painting it black which is a felony all by itself and then they use the toy / fake gun in a crime. It isn't "kids" doing that, it's adults.

The worst toys ever have to be the ones that in the 60s and 70s, were glow in the dark, but actually radio active. A notorious example in the UK was an Eagle transporter model made to promote Space: 1999 a Gerry Anderson science fiction series. I nearly brought one as an adult art student in the early 80s, but couldn't afford it. When I saw one secondhand some years later, at a Comic Mart, I didn't buy it, because I knew the paint on it was cancerous. Lucky miss.

I seriously can't help but think most of these issues with these products is the fact that the parents were stupid enough to buy some of these for a child clearly not ready for it. The AquaDots for example- who gets their toddler (Ages 1-3 is the standard age range) a bunch of tiny dots? They are going right in their mouths! This is based on a point in the video.

[@donhoverson6348]

Uranium isn't really all that dangerous. It is barely radioactive. They used to add it to paint on dishes called Fiestaware. Uranium is actually more common than silver in the Earth's crust. It is all over the place and in a lot of rocks. A heavy spike through your skull on the other hand. That could mean instant death and did for three children from what I've read.
