Rose Brothers Co. Inc. 194 Minn. 531 , , and this court adopted Restatement, Torts, § 339, which reads: “A possessor of lan

Our previous decisions in cases of this kind make it clear that this duty to exercise due care to eliminate conditions on real property which are hazardous to children is the same whether the person who creates the condition is an owner or a mere occupant of the property (Znidersich v. Minnesota Utilities Co. 155 Minn. 293 , ; Gimmestad v. Rose Brothers Co. Inc. 194 Minn. 531 , ), and also whether the child is an invitee, licensee, or trespasser.
