It's possible to leave your child with your iPhone. Perhaps a child could even be sucking on the corner while you're away. Most people don't consider an iPhone a hazardous device to put it out-of-reach.
So you're saying it's physically incapable for a small child to even be around an iPhone? I didn't know Apple had invented a person selective forcefield for their devices . . .
Maybe it's an offshoot of the "reality distortion field" research.
