“the main element should have two paragraph elements as children”. Your code does not have two paragraph elements as children

Very simple answer: There have to be two main> elements, one at the start and one at the end.
all p> elements are between two main> elements just like the below,

main>
p>Kitty ipsum dolor sit amet, shed everywhere shed everywhere stretching attack your ankles chase the red dot, hairball run catnip eat the grass sniff.</p

p>Purr jump eat the grass rip the couch scratched sunbathe, shed everywhere rip the couch sleep in the sink fluffy fur catnip scratched.</p

</main

You need to format your post, select the block of code and use the “preformatted text” (</>) button to format it
