I fully agree that training dogs is doable, but take 2 steps back and see the larger picture. What is more important? my dog or my kids. The choice is easy for me.

You are absolutely right. But that logic says that dogs should not exist, because they cannot be reasonably managed. --For example; dog
may bite at the postman. => cannot have a dog. A dog
may, when out for a walk, lunge at another passing kid. => cannot have a dog.
The idea, with domestic animals, is that they bring us more joy/security than they bring risk. ...if we control them properly. (just like a car. ...which, btw, kills Thousands of people each month)
