Not if you raise them proper. My girls, inexperienced though they may be about the ways of the world, have been trained to be situationally aware, practice gun control by going to the range frequently, exercise regularly, and seldom go anywhere questionable by themselves. They still occasionally get a case of dumba$$, but they are not obliviously walking around waiting to become a victim, and once they realize the risk, will work to minimize it quickly.
If you don't allow your kids to be molly-coddled, if you put them in situations where they have to struggle a bit, you may find that the results are that your children will learn to take care of themselves, and while their eventual independence may result in you being a bit lonesome for their company later on in life, you will be rewarded with knowing that they have a better chance than most of not facing some otherwise avoidable tragedy.
Your worst nightmares will be in contemplating the possibile malevolence directed at your offspring, especially at a young age. I found it most motivating for me to be a become a bit tough on them when it would've been easier to let them develop naturally as seems to be the politically correct thing to do these days.
