It's also on the top shelf for a reason. The person who took this photo likely would've needed to raise their arms up just to get a clear image. No 5-year-old is perusing the top damn shelf. OOP is a moron.

ETA - Yes, children can look up. But there are plenty of other things to look at in a store, and you are, presumably, in control of your child. Unless you're stopping to browse that section, how would they have the time or interest? It would take two seconds to point out or hand them something vastly more interesting. They're making mountains out of molehills no matter which way you slice it.

Do you truly believe there's no reasonable expectation that a child will see these toys? Like be completely honest with yourself, do you realize how silly that sounds?

22k+ people believe that a 5-year-old is highly unlikely to notice, see, understand, and/or care about these toys, yes.
