Ok, this isn't awesome but this article is the perfect evidence I need to show DH. He just bought some magnets similar to this and I asked him to get rid of them because they are a safety hazard for our LO. He didn't believe me and the only evidence I had was a TV show I saw on TLC about a kid who swallowed some magnets. I think the NYTimes is a better source. Just sent it to him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimes-article-re-danger-of-magnets#post-1858078 Thu, 11 Sep 2014 12:53:43 +0000 mrsjyw 1858078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I heard a similar story about batteries too, small ones found in remote controls etc.</p> <p>So sad :(</p> <p>Great PSA for not obvious safety hazards! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nytimes-article-re-danger-of-magnets#post-1858073 Thu, 11 Sep 2014 12:52:08 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 1858073@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hadn't really thought of this!
