AIBU to think that our environmental awareness seems to go by the board

where children's toys are concerned.

I am guilty myself so I am not being judgemental but I am thinking that we should collectively be more responsible. I use my recycling bag when I shop and I cycle or walk my children to school, I try to reduce water and energy waste in the home BUT my house is full of plastic crap toys.

Aibu to think that we should totally stop buying plastic toys and stick to environmentally friendly ones even if it means our kids will have far less of them. And should we ask grandparents etc to stop too.

Sorry, can't be bothered.

Can't you stick your vitriol to your own thread and leave this one to discuss the points raised in the OP?

i agree there are worse things in this world than children's toys but they are an easy one to fix. i cannot see today's children growing up and wishing they had had more.

it does make you wonder, if envirnmental problems start to kick in during their lifetimes, what fuckwits they will consider us.
