> Defective Toys
Of the almost 4 billion toys and games sold annually,
a portion will inevitably be defective and have the potential
to cause harm to the users. To forestall defective
toy lawsuits, manufactures will quickly recall products that
they believe to be hazardous due to a defective design.
The first line of defense between a defective toy and a child
should be the parents. Every toy should be thoroughly inspected
for choking hazards, improperly assembled parts, or anything
that could potentially harm a child. Another thing that should
be taken into consideration is that a child should never be
allowed to play with a toy that is designed for an advanced
age group. Even with a perfectly functioning toy the child
could be placed into a situation that they are not adequately
prepared to handle.
Even with the preventive measures taken by manufacturers
and parents, every year families are affected by injuries
caused by toys. Whereas some of the injuries are the result
of the parents or the child’s actions, the injuries
that are the most difficult to come to terms with are those
caused by defective toys.
