A lot of us grew up in houses with lead paint. The problem is with people that don't keep a properly clean house and this unfortunately associates (statistically) with the people are most likely to live in places that need the most attention and not pay proper attention to the problem of lead paint.

And I doubt his mother's apartment, where he has lived since birth, has been tested either. As part of his regular doctor's visits, he gets his blood levels tested for lead and they are next to nothing. Of course he doesn't eat the paint in our apartments (or stick his fingers in light sockets, fall out the window or wander out into the streets in the middle of the night). Lead paint isn't on my radar. I am honestly more concerned about what chemicals are in his food, his old baby bottle or his toy cars. If he lived in a place where the paint was peeling off the walls, maybe I would be worried, but I am not.
