Lead paint is very dangerous, and children should be checked at least once a year. This is esspecailly for children are in the age of putting things or their hands in their mouth.
This is something that you can’t be too cautious about, so check recalls often, and have a good recollection of your children’s toys so you can recognize them.

One of my kids at school went to the doctor and had a high level of paint in his system due to the fact that he used to play with matchbox cars made in china..

It can cause permanant mental retardation. It’s dangerous for any age but especially children. Here is some info:
Exposure to excessive levels of lead can cause brain damage; affect a child’s growth; damage kidneys; impair hearing; cause vomiting, headaches, and appetite loss; and cause learning and behavioral problems. In adults, lead can increase blood pressure and can cause digestive problems, kidney damage, nerve disorders, sleep problems, muscle and joint pain, and mood changes.
