It's really becoming a concern whether China can be depended on as supplier. I hope that's not the case, but I do have concerns.
Hats off to Fisher-Price for at least responding quickly once they learned of the problem.
Do you think there's any risk that Chinese dildos or rubbjers may cause pregancy?

No, but the lead paint sure explains why they taste so sweet!

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.

It would appear that China is finding out that the transition from "third world" to industrial power carries with it certain responsibilities that no one warned them about...

or they have chosen to ignore...
i saw this earlier. i didn't buy any of them since the recall date, but we have a few of the toys that are recalled from before the date, most with the paint chewed off.  i took the opportunity to tell my kids see? ya know how i'm always saying i tell you guys not to do stuff for good reasons and it's not just cause i like bossin you around? when i tell you toys aren't food and don't belong in your mouth, it's for a good reason. don't eat the toys.
ah, the teachable moment to say told ya so!.

I tend to agree, I shied away from going that far only because I didn't want to inflame (too much, anyway) an already testy situation.
China has already gone as far as to execute a govt official for letting the export situation get out of hand...whether this was a real sign of reform, or just a show trial to make an example of somebody, time will tell...I personally thought that was quite barbaric & extreme, but I would allow as how I might not think so if I had lost one of my doggies to their poisoned food.
