🤣 LOL I remember that. Except they find out that kids are, in fact, harmless. It's just that they can carry germs that could spread to the monsters and make them all sick. Hence why the deliberate misinformation about "children being dangerous". Also keeps the monsters from getting attached to their assigned kids.

I can see it now.
