New Parents, Watch Out: Baby Products to Avoid

20 Apr.,2023

 

I had a wonderful childhood; I always felt safe and loved. But looking back, things were so different when my parents were raising me.

I’m not sure car seats were ever rear-facing; I definitely can’t remember sitting in a booster seat or even seeing one. In fact, when I was about 5, my dad took me for a drive in his old Ford truck on the frozen lake in our town.

The practice of driving a one-ton truck on the frozen lake has since been outlawed, and so have a whole slew of baby practices our parents thought were totally normal when they were raising little ones.

These are a few Baby Products that are no longer safe — some of them might surprise you.
