Ban the manufacturing and sale of cot bumpers illegal.
Cot bumpers are a piece of material made to tie around the head of a infants bed, this supposedly protects them. Cot bumpers are available from stores such as mothercare and M&P. They have been a reason infants have lost their lives either from suffocation or strangulation. Please help stop this.

Stores such as mothercare are still selling these death traps, and with the incorrect sleeping advise to go with it. They are using SIDS as a way to scare parents into buying their products, this is not ok. Using the term co-sleeping to describe bed sharing when co-sleeping is sharing a room with baby which is thought to reduce SIDS.
