> But eating small amounts of silly putty isn't going to kill me But choking on a wad of silly putty definitely can. Hence the fact that it's labeled as a choking hazard and not for young children. I don't think the bar for "should be banned" is "small amounts are dangerous". A "small amount" of Scrabble can kill your kid, despite there being "no reason" to eat Scrabble tiles, but we don't ban it. Toy stores sell balloons and jacks and dice and all kinds of things that pose real dangers to kids. > These magnet companies knew that teenagers were using the magnets for fake piercing jewellery. Shrug? Car manufacturers know teens are racing cars and snowboard manufacturers know teens are riding down black diamonds with little skill and no helmets. Teens do stupid things and we don't ban entire categories of product to attempt to protect them from minor dangers. > * they resisted putting warnings on the packs and resisted moving the product off toy shelves.* Did they actually resist labeling them or just resist the ban? If they resisted labeling, that's pointless and dumb and it's perfectly reasonable that they be required to label clearly and appropriately.
