There's a ton more that people always forget. How often do you worry about random brigands attacking your town and burning everything? No, I don't care if are actually still afraid of that (you scaredy cat). It doesn't happen now, but it used to happen all the time.

How many of your 10 children have died of preventable illness? It used to be like 30%. Even royal families had problems with disease. Look at this shit:

Peter the Great had two wives, with whom he had fifteen children, three of whom survived to adulthood.

How afraid are you of having enough food to eat to last the winter? That was an annual worry, and is the reason why harvest festivals exist. Unless you are from the third world, your family has not worried about this for 100 years.
