What Worries Me?
• A juvenile imprint can transform a “general use item” into a “children’s product”
• Discovering the intended audience can be difficult
• Far too often, test reports are out of date, based on wrong standards, incomplete or for a different product
• Distribution site often unknown to the manufacturer
