BuddyPress and BBPress both say "use a child theme"

I like to use BuddyPress and bbPress, both told me:use a child-theme if you would like to customize.

This is confusing, I can’t understand how to use two child themes at once.

Any solution would be very very helpful….

You just need a BuddyPress child theme. It would be awkward to have your main theme and then another one for bbpress especially since theme compatability came out. But there are themes for bbpress. I just believe in consistency or users may think they got redirected to a whole different site. You want every page to be identifiable to your brand or else people will get confused. At least that is my opinion. Imagine a theme based on Space, then one based on animals all on the same site. It would drive people nuts trying to figure out what happened! LOL!
