      *YAWN*


      Now as parents we already know this, but I'd thought I'd point out to you that now that the press has finished milking all the fear from H1N1, they're going to proceed to stoke new levels of paranoia with this latest report.

      China-made children's products unsafe
      Posted: 28 May 2009 1615 hrs

      BEIJING: Nearly half of the clothing and a third of the furniture made for children in China's top manufacturing province is unsafe, with many products containing harmful chemicals, state media said.



      blah blah blah blah blah.... I'm surprised these \"official investigators\" didn't find any milk powder in the plastic. *rolleyes*

            Sorry lah, ladies. Actually I’m not bored by it per se, and I do indeed find it very infuriating. I think you feel the same way.

              Ya, I agree. It’s just that this is old news already, yet they still have made no (or very little visible) progress towards making safe products, ESPECIALLY FOR CHILDREN. :x
