Nikki asks,
*****************************************

Can anybody explain to me why infant and child clothing has to be treated

One Christmas, our Jill, who was about 11 at the time, was trying to take a
picture, and leaned backwards to get a better shot.  Unfortunately, she leaned
backwards over a lit candle.  Instead of going up in flames, her bathrobe sort
of "melted" into a large hole.

I was grateful.  Still am, for that matter.
