Would you also recommend parents not sell or give away strollers or toys, lest they be sued in the event of an injury? I've been on both sides of these transactions (and am a lawyer), and it never occurred to me that a lawsuit might occur.

I'm also unaware of any possible criminal liability — this seems even more farfetched than the notion of a civil lawsuit.

The closest I could think is a vexatious litigant d.b.a. "ambulance chaser" trying to sue everyone in the supply chain.

I'd generally think the average Joe realizes a private sale/giveaway is an "as is, where is" though.
