Only in America!

Probably more likely the mother handed the daughter the nugget, and the daughter dropped it or the mother handed the kids the box of nuggets and the daughter dropped it. My guess is that the mom didn't put the nugget into the kid's lap. A 4yo is perfectly capable and likely to want to grab a nugget, but it also wouldn't be surprising for a 4yo to drop what they were holding. My experience is fairly recent since we spend a lot of time with our grandsons that are 7 and 4.
