[quote=Anonymous][quote]Wow. We live in a 1927 house with lead paint on windows, doors, trim, etc. We just keep the paint fresh (e.g. paint over it if it starts to peel) and there's no problem. DS is 5 and tested with undetectable lead levels. And yes, he crawled around and put stuff in his mouth as a baby. And no, he never wanted to chew with window sills, and we wouldn't have let him if he did. [/quote] Very similar situation with us, but kids 1.5 and 3.5. We keep the paint fresh (probably one of our top home maintenance items) and we don't use the windows in the "old" part of the house (but they are so old that they are practically non-functioning anyway). We test kids every 6 mos and so far levels undetectable as well. We live in an historic district with tons of little kids, so I can't imagine this is so unusual. [/quote]
