About 18.6 million toys were being recalled and over 400,000 had been pulled off shelves due to the levels of toxic lead paint. Whether or no China is too blame for they toy recalls, which could lead to no more trade with or at higher expense. Lead paint is very dangerous and could cause serious developmental disorders to a child who ingests it. The Chinese should be careful of what paint is being used to on the toys, for a simple reason that it could harm someone. Plus the company that painted these toys’ violated Mattel’s safety policy, which lead paint is banned in the “west”. Other toys have also been recalled for the safety of the product. The Chinese are not at fault for the way that it’s been manufacture, it’s the engineers who create the toy and china just supplies us with the finished product. For example, some toys had small magnets that could get stuck in children's guts??? We all know small pieces aren't meant for children in the first place. This incident was not the Chinese fault, because this toy could have been created in the United States and would have been manufactured the same way. In order to prevent this problem in the future, each batch of toys that are imported should be tested for safety. There for in conclusion, parents will just have to decide weather their child will play with the toys or not.
