Okay, there's a VOLUNTARY recall for crib brackets. Some people are getting extremely worried and scared and ordering new ones, where other people are taking a completely laid back attitude towards it. I am in the latter group. The recall is VOLUNTARY because there is only ONE recorded case of something going on. ONE. And there were hundreds of THOUSANDS of cribs sold. A small boy got a bruise on his leg when the bracket in the crib gave out. While that's awful that he was hurt. It was really a completely fluke accident. There's always the potential that something can go wrong with ANYTHING. Storkcraft is putting out this voluntary recall to avoid any sort of lawsuit, and yes, to give parents an option. I don't think it's a dire situation however. If your crib was put together correctly, and you regularly check for ware and tear like you're supposed to, you have nothing to worry about. This family of the small child who was hurt should have been able to see that the brackets were cracked if they had done their regular inspections of the crib. Now, that is one thing I do. I do regularly check for ware and tare. I will admit that only once have I tightened bolts and such, but honestly, it was the only time that the crib felt loose and needed a tightening. Period. I do care about my children's safety. It's paramount. But, I'm not going to panic and then insinuate that I'm a better mother because *I* went and got new brackets for my crib, and I will not take the chance. No, i won't take the chance. But i'm not going to run to the phone every time there's a VOLUNTARY recall. It's seriously not worth my time. On the same note, I'm not going to talk down or think less of a person who does go get the new brackets, or panic or whatever. You are your child's parent, and YOU make the decision. It's yours, and yours alone. Not mine, and not Joe Blow down the street. I just dont' think that I should be, or anyone else, should be scolded or frowned upon for their decision. Period.
