Parenting: What do you think of the new drop-side crib ban?

Forbes is reporting that the Consumer Product Safety Commission has voted unanimously to ban the manufacture, sale and re-sale of drop-side cribs, which have a side rail that moves up and down.

The deaths of more than 30 infants and toddlers in the past decade prompted the CPSC to take this action.

Without drop-side cribs, parents can feel safer knowing that the rails will not detach from the crib creating a dangerous gap between the mattress and side rail where a baby can get caught and suffocate, or worse yet strangle and die.

However, drop-side cribs allow parents to place a sleeping infant into a crib without too much jostling, which many parents find handy.

Have you or anyone that you know been affected by dangerous cribs? What do you think of this ban?
