I think this is qualitatively different than environmental hazards. This is other people, maliciously intruding into kids lives and attacking them. It's less like wolves than it is like an enemy tribe, nation, or army intent on attacking defenseless people.

You are right that it is qualitatively different, and I think this makes it more relevant. The biggest predator of humans is humans. If we wander around being naive about this fact and acting like it is an outlier, or an exception, we can't deal with it realistically ... we fail to take precautions and then emotionally overreact when we are wronged.
