I was looking into the lead paint thing a while back. Apparently, it was only an issue because they said kids would eat paint chips. I've never seen a kid eating the paint chipping off of a wall, but it seems like any other toxic substance you have to keep an eye on as a parent.
One thing lead paint did really well, was block wireless signals. Sometimes I wonder if that was the real reason the banned lead paint.
Lead is sweet, that's why kids ate it. It is considered abated if it's covered for 20 years. There is a product that paints over lead paint. 2 layers of 3 mils each layer. Some people just put a layer of drywall over the wall to encapsulate. It's typically found on plaster walls

Lead paint was above anything else for preserving exterior wood.

I never knew it was sweet. Interesting.
