THE PROBLEM

"What we have here a situation that will be used in long-term effects of chemicals in flame retardants, are not fully known. In the best case, the rules / regulations on the beds a work in progress. Only time will tell what the outcome will be. As consumers, we need to know everything in the environment of our children and the whole world.
