Corrected entry: If the beam of the laser shrinks the first thing it hits, then why wouldn't the following string of events happen? 1. The kids' shirts shrink, since they are in immediate contact with the "laser." 2. The shirts would shrink and tear instantly since the kids are still wearing them. (And if the girl's bra is in the path of the "laser," that would be interesting to see!) 3. Then, since they are now in a direct path of the "laser," they would shrink, leaving them naked from the waste down. 4. Their first mission would be to free themselves from their clothing lying on top of them.

Correction: The laser is strong enough to go though their clothes and hit their bodies. Because if you were just shrinking the clothes it would be too light and would go right though.
