That’s very different from outright fabrication, which is rare.
I dunno. It may be that outright fabrication absent any prodding from an adult is rare, but children have told some real whoppers with just a little direction from adults. Remember the McMartin preschool scandal? when a guy named Ray Buckey spent 5 years in prison, charged but not convicted, simply awaiting trial, because a judge would not give him bail?
