If the first child is intelligent and a competent designer, then the second child will be safe. There are no issues here. Just 2 children who trust each other.

My sister told me I could fly after watching Peter Pan. I could not fly.

Sounds like you didn't believe you could fly.

They believed they could fly, and they touched the sky.

Unfortunately they then touched the ground and the ground touched back

Roof or bunk bed?

Got my brother off the bunk bed but mum caught us before he could try roof.

If you ever think you can fly: start from the ground.

Good advice for children and drunk people.

If … that word carries a lot of weight with random children’s ideas

Intelligent and competent designers fail A LOT, but they keep trying to find a way to fail the least
