We'll explore the concept behind child function components and how to add dynamic return values and hiding state management inside the component. Then we'll explore how to setup functional render props that allow for complex components with simple APIs. Finally we'll show how these 2 concepts can compose together like any other React component.

We'll show how to modify the children prop with React.cloneElement. We'll add additional properties, and modify existing properties to enhance an element.

One of the issues I've noticed with PanResponder is that people assume it is an all or nothing. By that I mean adding a PanResponder in a parent view means it will steal all of your touches and Touchable items won't be touchable any longer.

You may be running into this because you copy and pasted it from here the documentation here https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/panresponder.html and it includes a capture phase returning true. (I copy and paste this all the time). We'll talk about the capture phase next.
