If you jump off a building you’ll learn not to do that again, but there’s easier and safer ways to learn.

I know not to jump off a building because I’ve fallen smaller distances as a child and I understand the consequences.

You would be negligent to let a child experience their first steps on the roof of a building.

A couple of hurt feelings in elementary school is likewise a low risk introduction to the world of social interaction.
