And as a parent I would be sceptical if I am safe collecting the children.

Parents will do almost anything in order to be able to be with their children again, no matter how unsafe. That's one of the reasons this is so messed up.

    No, Steam is a store and a content delivery mechanism. It has the option to add DRM, which developers may choose to do, but don't have to. There are games which can be purchased on Steam and which can be launched without the Steam client, just like any normal program.
