There are incidents related to toy industries which show the negligence of producers. The toys are often made up of small parts which can break off and choke kids. Small parts or detachable components that can fit into a child’s mouth are a common choking risk. Poorly assembled toys may break easily, releasing small pieces that can be ingested. Toys with sharp edges, rough surfaces, or exposed metal parts can cause cuts or injuries. Manufacturers should ensure that toys are smooth and safe for handling. Also, the quality of material used for toys is often toxic. Some toys may contain harmful substances such as lead or other toxic chemicals. These can be ingested or absorbed through the skin, potentially causing long-term health issues. The producers of such toys can be held responsible for such incidents.
