Lead is extremely toxic to everyone; nobody should be exposed to it if possible. Children are more susceptible to poisoning because they are smaller, so it is more dangerous for them.

Lead paint is a safety hazard to children?

Homes built in the US before 1976 may have been painted with a lead based paint. homes built after that time should not have been, although older supplies may have been used for a time. The date, if any, at whcih lead paint was forbidden for use in homes in other countries will vary. Lead is a toxic material that interfers with development of nerve and brain tissue in children. Any person who absorbes an excessive amount of lead may suffer from anemia and may experience nerve dameage. Because children are smaller and are growing rapidly, they are susseptable to damage after absorbing smaller amounts of lead. Because young children are likely to chew on paint chips, they are more likely than other members of a family to absorb significant amounts of lead and suffer harm from lead paint in a home, especially if the paint is pealing and easilly chipped. Anyone who uses flame to "burn off" leaded paint from painted surfaces, or who uses grinders or power sanders to remove leaded paint may also be exposed to the lead unless proper precautions are taken.
