Here is another reason why I worry as a mom:
Wal-Mart to Pull Bottles Made With Chemical BPA (not till next year. I guess Canada and European countries have already banned them from shelves)
Bottle Maker to Stop Using Plastic Linked to Health Concerns
Yet the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association in the U.S. still considers them safe. Read here.
*update* here's a great blog with information on BPA free bottles, sippy cups, tableware, etc. There's even a download for a wallet-sized info card:
Z Recommends
I appreciate blogs and news articles like these that help consumers stay informed. When manufactures see the response of concerned parents and the decrease in sales, I think they are more likely to make changes.

i heard about this, but with nalgene bottles. it's so frustrating to think that the things that they put on the store shelves to purchase are not safe. this is the type of thing that pushes people to live on communes.
