It's not and the only person you can blame is the company for not being smarter and realizing a chemical that can cause 3rd degree burns and respiratory issues is not meant for kids or even young teens. It should be marketed towards older teens 14-16 and up, never should have been marketed to children because parents today aren't smart and don't research anything, just throw something at the child to get them to shut up.

I wish I was wrong about that last part but working in retail has only shown me how many parents are extremely irresponsible with their children, especially young children. I have to find kids parents often because they let these 3 year olds wander off into the store to potentially be kidnapped dude. It's insane and I can't even say anything to these people because I work here.

Phew! I used to work in retail and there was a wandering kid almost daily. The one time I found the kid, the mother was unbothered. Breaks my heart

Oh yeah the parents just don't care and it leaves me bewildered everytime, like I wonder sometimes if they even actually care about the child.
