Hello, Pat.
       I will take your comments into consideration.  But I still can't say
that I would refrain from suggesting to parents something that could make their
child healthier.   Now that babies ride in the rear instead of the in the
front beside the parent, it's more difficult for parents to see what happens with
babies.  If you really want to get picky about it, who's to say the rolled
blanket might not wiggle down over baby's face and cause a tragedy, especially
in a young baby who does not have enough control of arms/hands to push it away
from the face?  I suppose there could be some sort of campaign to educate
parents about how the manufacturers want to save money by being sneaky and cutting
the foam off too soon because they think no one looks behind the fabric.
Then maybe someone would organize a letter-writing campaign to manufacturers to
fix the foam, and to congressmen or whomever it is who writes the laws or
determines the rules about what constitutes safe products.
