This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Kids bones are much more flexible than adult bones. They get harder with age. So a child can withstand much more stuff without breaking a bone than an adult.

I wish that were true for me. I broke my arms 3 times as a kid lmao.

What they wanted to say is that kids' bones are more bendable, but they cannot take the same force than an adult's bone. It is a benefit in some situations and a detriment in others. Maybe the flexibility was anon's dumb luck in that case.
