It’s been happening for over 20 years.
Can also explode if you short them.
(not stock market short, electrical short)
I’ve been told … I’ve never tried it.
Of course the answer is to ban them, not “keep them out of reach of children.”
I take handfuls of them, drop in a cup. Cup gets warm, nothing explodes. Their real concern should be the lipo batteries that are as small as some button cells.
Poor little kid.
I thought most of those batteries were put in products that had screws on the latches?
“I want to keep these things out of houses,” he said. “They are dangerous.”
Or you can keep an eye on your kid and don’t buy toys with loose battery compartments. How about that?
I feel bad for gramps and them, but I use batteries like those on a few of my medical devices, and no one I know, including me, have swallowed any.
I don’t have a problem with that stuff.
My house is completely child proof.
I don’t let them in.
Beautiful child.
So sad
There is nothing more precious than a child.
So sad.
Heartbreaking, prayers for the family. She was a beautiful child
Adults are more dangerous in my house. They can’t pick up their feet and they trip on rugs. I now greet them outside or don’t answer the door. Kids will stick anything in their mouths including those laundry pods, they look like candy.
Adorable child, I cannot even imagine this family’s anguish…
Exactly, Moetom. I understand that the grandfather is grieving, but he wants to “keep them out of houses.” In other words, he wants to ban them. Probably a libtard.
