Leaded glass in home

[Still_Learning]

We are moving and the home has doors and cabinets with leaded glass. I've been assuming there was no health hazard as it's not like we'll be chewing on them. Am I wrong?

I think you're correct.  I think the biggest problem with leaded glass is fancy pitchers that would hold liquid (say, alcohol) for long stretches of time and the lead would leach out.  As far as I know, it's not an issue of dust or anything--if you have a kid who's hard-core into mouthing (as in putting their mouth _on_ stuff, including across glass surfaces), then maybe an issue, but I think it's fine otherwise.
