I have grandkids and I am very careful.
1. I only cast when the grandkids aren't around
2. I cast outside and hope that there is a light breeze
3. When I am finished, I wash the driveway down with the hose to make sure that nothing remains behind.
I am of the opinion that if you are careful and follow basic safety rules, then there shouldn't be a problem. Imo, the biggest issue is the temperature of the molten lead and its explosive reaction to water. In addition, the presence of contaminating lead can be mitigated if you keep the lead hot enough to flow smoothly but not so hot as to cause it to vaporize.
