My older sister and I once made a very questionable swing. My youngest sister was more than happy to be the first one to try it. She had to climb up on the picnic table, under the apple tree, to sit in a chair. We then hoisted the chair up by rope. The chair promptly flipped, we dropped the rope and little sister broke her elbow. Managed to hide the broken elbow from Mom and Dad till the next morning.

Poor sis! How did you manage to hide a broken elbow??

Stay outside until dinner. Warn sister not to rat. Play in bedroom until bedtime.

My daughter fractured her elbow in a bike accident and we didn't know until the next day. We thought it was just sprained. She wasn't acting like it was so bad that it was broken and she went to sleep okay.
