Boy BLINDED by loom band as doctors warn they're a health risk | Mail Online

This sort of accident can happen with any toy. Anyone who thinks banning loom bans will prevent accidents needs a group of loom bands shaped like a giant dildo inserted up their rectum.

Me! Me! I think it will prevent accidents!

Have you seen the state of some of the kids fingers when they use these bands ? They restrict the blood flow and the fingers go blue/purple. Daughters friend did this and was really lucky it wasnt more serious

You're right BP (had to happen eventually). As crazes go, this one is great - cheap as chips and a contructive/crafty type thing. These kids are doing useful stuff for once, and learning about the effort/reward thing too.

"The incident happened as carer Mrs Lawrence sat with her children at their £100,000 semi-detached home making loom bands at the end of May."

Is that purchase price or current market value?

Nothing new under the sun.

We use to make bracelets out of elastic bands when I was a girl.

The only difference was when our fingers, hands or wrists started to change colour due to lack of blood flow we removed them.

Kids these days have no f***ing common-sense.
