[quote=Anonymous]FWIW, by employing this inane, sole criterion for making your baby gear selections, your future self is going to want to kill you. Though you tell yourself that you are doing this out of concern for your baby, it's clearly to mollify your own neuroses and paranoia. You are going to end up with a bunch of expensive hippy crap that your baby is probably going to hate anyway (probably just to spite you). More pragmatic considerations, such as size, quality, comfort, and functionality, are likely to make you and your baby much happier. And let's not overlook the irony regarding the fact that, out of concern for your baby's health, your solution is to leave your baby in more flammable clothes/cribs/bouncers/swings/seats. Real danger: fire. Real solution: flame retardants. Imaginary danger: long-term health effects of early exposure to chemicals that are completely unavoidable in modern society. Imaginary solution: organic products. [/quote]
