They do not care if our children get lead poisoning.  But the companies that import it are at fault there also.  They should have stringent testing policies in place before putting these Chinese-made items up for sale. — I like that Wal-Mart will "price match" if you bring in the ad from another store, but they sometimes make up rules as they go along.  I took a Petco...
