File this one under ,"No longer surprising." The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the recall of AQUA DOTS. News of the recall has been widely reported, like at Reuters.

I wish I was surprised by this, but after the last few months, I can't be. What makes me so mad is that MY kids got these stupid bead toys!

When these first got to the house, I KNEW these were trouble. At first, the beads were a mild choking hazard (small, sticky) but that was the extent of it. I should have trusted my parental instincts. I should have KNOWN that the MADE IN CHINA label was trouble. I just thought, "Hey, the kids like the toy." Boy was I wrong! This isn't just about a little lead paint that will make a generation of our kids stupid, this chemical laced plastic candy looking thing will KILL your kid. Wow. Ponder that one!

DON'T BUY CHINEESE MADE TOYS AT ALL!
