Fisher-Price is recalling around 800 different toys, made in China, that are known to have LEAD in the paint! Lead can cause alot of damage to children.

Maybe the answer would be to bring our jobs back over here and quit using other countries to make our goods. At least you would have more control over things and would help our country. It is sad, it seems like you aren't safe doing anything.

I heard that report on the radio and frankly, it makes me angry. Why on earth would they use lead paint in the first place? And why weren't the toys tested before they were placed on the shelves? Conspiracy theory - maybe the people making them is trying to undermine the US by causing countless children to get brain damage from chewing on lead paint? Pretty sad when we can't even buy something from a company as well known as Fisher Price.
