Ann Brown was chair of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission from 1994 to 2001. It might seem as though the Consumer Product Safety Commission, which I used to head, deserves thanks for recalling those sleepers last month.

Instead, with a little-noticed memo in September, it announced the abolition of the children’s product defect group. To do less betrays children and their parents who buy products with names that promise happiness — but spell danger.
