You could extend the nets out further to the sides to prevent the foul balls line drives that are really dangerous, but then the chance to grab foul balls is what makes those seats attractive to ppl in the first place.
IMO there should be two rules.
A) Don't sit in those seats if you have young children.
B) Bring a glove and pay attention at all times.

Those are the ones they're concerned about. It's the line drive fouls and flying shattered bats which follow the same straight line trajectory into the crowd, not the moonshots.
