    The product, in the report: Glow stick with string necklace from Dollar Tree

    My 10yr old daughter had a glow stick on a string necklace from the Dollar Store which she wore Halloween night. Today it had a faint glow and she tried squeezing it again to see if that would cause more illumination as this is how you “turn on” the glow stick to begin with. It exploded, getting in her eyes and mouth. It was extremely painful for her and I almost took her to the hospital, though after about 15 minutes of flushing and a call to the poison control center it seemed okay to put her to bed. I was surprised to hear that this is not an uncommon problem. I am furious that those child toys break so easily and are full such serious chemicals as to cause my daughter so much pain that she was screaming and thrashing around, and continued screaming due to unsubsidized pain long after we were flushing her eyes
