The inventor of the clear Lego was a sick, sick puppy. My son is a Lego fanatic. He is constantly building and playing with his billions of Legos! I like to encourage this, because before he was diagnosed with ADHD, he was unable to play with Legos at all. He was unable to concentrate and would get frustrated. Now that he has been diagnosed and is receiving treatment you can't get him away from his Legos! He is usually very good at cleaning up after himself when playing, but it is very hard to see clear Legos. Whoever created this toy obviously had no children, especially not one with ADHD!
When getting up to go to bed the other night, I accidentally stepped on the clear Lego which I obviously didn't see! It was hidden in the carpet waiting to attack, which it did, with relish! I stepped on the deadly, clear brick of pain and twisted my knee. I heard the "pop, pop, pop" of my kneecap and stood there as it immediately swelled thinking, "Well, crap!" Now I might need surgery, as the unsuspecting Lego did major damage to my leg. Great. Now my son must play with his Legos at the table only and just looking at the teeny, tiny, bricks makes my eye twitch.
