And the count goes on about these labels…Risk of fire is certain, the label is a warning. If it had a label it still would be a fire risk, a warning is great but why don’t they make fire retardant garments instead.

My thoughts exactly.

I wish our standards would make this type of clothing illegal to sell with or without a label. I know why they make the garments from these fabrics, it is cheap, only needs a small label attached to make it legal to sell, and even if recalled the cost was/is minimal to make it in the first place…they would just need to make sure the label is on the next lot.

Instead the risk of a garment catching fire and injuring or killing the wearer is totally absolved on the manufacturer and placed on the parent/guardian because it had a label. Sick capitalism when profits outweigh any real consumer concern on the part of the entire chain of industry and retailers.
