This really makes me wonder how long these toys have been dangerous. Could it be that many of the conditions we are seeing more of, like Autism, are there results of unsafe toys? Could this have been a problem for years that has just now been addressed?

we have also but I'm sure Christmas and birthday time will be hard to regulate. What a world we live in that things like this are cause for fear.

Exclamation Re: Mattel Recalls Various Barbie Accessory Toys Due to Violation of Lead Paint Stand

Hey Everyone—
I have important news to share. Mattel is recalling millions of toys made in China and recently announced they are expanding the recall for the fifth time to include Barbie accessories.
We are working with a law firm that is very concerned with the slow speed at which Mattel is moving on these recalls and is investigating ways to make the process faster and more complete. If you or someone you know owns any of the toys, we would love to hear from you and your experiences in learning about the recall. Check out information at hbsslaw.com.
