Well, I watch my young child at the playground and I get them away from the pool or tall trees when I see a storm approaching. It's possible to take relatively easy measures to lower risk.

DP, but what you're doing is more like staying away from the pool or tall trees on a sunny day. It's so, so rare for a kid to be abducted by a stranger.

Overkill is refusing to swim with no storm in sight, and watching a 12 year old at a playground. Getting out of a pool when you see a storm or supervising a 4/5 year old in a public playground are just common precautions for known if rare risks.

It is rare, but it happens. Ask Dulce’s mom. Her five year old is still missing.
