Answer:Burn or scald risks exist in places you might not expect. Typically we worry about a child touching a hot stove. But children's products have posed burn risks in a variety of ways:

  • Clothing may not meet federal flammability standards
  • The product could ignite
  • The product could overheat and melt
  • Battery failure could lead to overheating

Please watch the video below from Consumers International (CI). I found it interesting since it highlights the importance of consumers in shaping the global economy and government regulations. I like to think that it is possible, but sometimes my skepticism gets the better of me and makes me question if  ..."it is myth or reality" ....I would like to know what you think...
