After all we keep hearing about the toy industry's decline and how kids nowadays even when given toys as gift, would rather play the Nintendo Switch or some other portable electronic device or use their phones. That it has got to the point that now toys are primarily bought by adults as collectibles or to be displayed as home decor rather than used to play with.
So it make me wonder do we take it for granted how big toys used to be as entertainment for minors? -

Anything past toddler stage that isn't teaching kids anything is just landfill this day and age. Let's be honest. Kids aren't interested in kid stuff anymore bc they've been spoilt with technology, and can you blame them? Adults are the same
Ppl crying about the planet yet the gov allow these small retarded companies to push out cheap tat **** nobody is gonna keep for a week let alone for life. More plastic waste. -

And it isn't just toy stores. You got millions of small businesses that are pushing out make up brands. All those lipgloss tubes have to go somewhere and I can bet my right arm it isn't the recycling factory lol
