Yep. Literally every prior generation, including ours, went through this process. If anything the world is safer: everyone has cell phones in an emergency, cars are made to handle accidents better, and there's winder cultural awareness about how to spot abuse.

All it's going to do is mess up their ability to understand trust or cause them to avoid taking any sort of basic social risks.
