exactly. Also, there's so much adventure to be experienced, so much beauty to appreciate. It's worth it. Also, the world _does not have to be experienced as constantly dangerous_ and it's important to allow a respite from that message.

And I think adults conceptions of 'the world is dangerous' does not always match the harm as experienced by children. They know the world is dangerous. They experience it all the time.
