People joke about how kids these days need to toughen up and how kids in their day used to eat lead paint and blah blah blah. The things that were banned were banned for a reason, like lawn darts, which killed a little girl (who wasn’t even playing, she was hit by an errant dart) and injured 6,000 children a year, many of whom were injured permanently.
