Come to think of it, the ACHL (Aggregate Child Handling Load) calculation is quite similar to that of particle count and particle proximity versus critical mass in a nuclear reaction. As you linearly increase the number of children, their "critical mass" increases at an exponential rate that is itself exponentially accelerating. Also, the smaller the space in which N children live, the greater the chance of a reaction (hence the "Go outside and play!" safety switch). As children leave for college (or "spin out"), the chance of a reaction decreases. This explains all the mushroom clouds...
