More Toxic Junk From China Recalled
From Patricia Doyle, PhD
4-7-10

It is quite obvious that our feckless government is not going to stop accepting toxic Chinese imported products.  So, dear consumer, it is up to us. We have the power to stop the insanity by refusing to buy this stuff. Check each product or toy that you buy and if it was made in China or contains ingredients from China. If so, DON'T BUY IT.
 
Just because a product has an American name or is offered for sale under an American trademark that does not guarantee it was made here. Look before you buy. Made in China?  Put it back on the shelf and tell the store sales person that you wanted the product but won't buy it because it is made in China. Ask for a substitute product that was made in the USA or Canada. Stop buying. If this means we have to say no to our children about a popular toy, so be it. Don't be afraid to tell the child why you cannot buy it.  You are the parent and have the right and RESPONSIBILITY to say "no."
