When you add a bone, it is automatically made a child of the currently selected bone (often the last bone drawn), or as the top of a new bone hierarchy if no bone is currently selected.

So, for example, after you draw a thigh-shin-foot chain, you should re-select the spine or pelvis bone before drawing the bone chain for the second leg.

Do Tutorial 1.4 again, it covers these details step-by-step.
