Tell me something you believed as a kid.?

Question

I didn't know about sun and clouds, I didn't understand the relationship. On partly cloudy days when there was sunshine only part of the time, I believed that when the sun wasn't shining where I was it ran and shone somewhere else. I felt so sorry for the sun having to run back and forth making sun for different people. '-)

To BrookeLv: I also believed there was a bogeyman under my bed. I NEVER let my hands or feet hang over the end of the mattress because it would reach up and eat them '-(

Dom C: the nuns told us that God saw everything we did. When I sat on the toilet I would look up to see if he was watching.

Heaven: my grandmother told me that if I ate my boogers, I'd get worms. and the man next door told me that if I swallowed my bubblegum it would get hung up on my ribs and make a bubble. Every time I breathed the bubble would grow bigger and bigger and then BURST.

Never ate another booger nor swallowed my gum.

Answer 1

I was born in Glasgow (no I'm not going to start to sing).
We all had a big bowl of thick porridge each for breakfast, really thick stuff we had a job getting it off the spoon.
Dad used to tip lashings of salt onto his!
For some unknown reason I got it into my head this stuff cooled the porridge down , so I copied, anything I thought was too hot got a large dollop of salt in from me.
I must have been doing this little ritual for ages, then my old Gran noticed I was pouring salt onto my rice pudding, she asked why? When I told her it was too hot, she rushed to my mum to inform her there was a 'mental defective' in the family!! She came back to tell me that if I continued to do this all my blood would dry up and my fingers would all drop off. I told her my Dad does it, she informed me that my Dad was also a 'mental loon'!
So I stopped it and still have all my fingers. But for ages I got some very strange looks if my hand ventured any where near the salt pot on the table.

Answer 4

My birthday is in February and my brother's is in August, almost exactly six months apart. So on his birthday, my mom would also celebrate my "half-birthday" and vice versa.

Well, at the time, I didn't realize our half-birthdays really WERE on each other's birthdays...I thought that having a half-birthday depended on having a sibling.

I always felt so sorry for my two best friends, Stephanie and Zack, who were both only children, because they didn't get to have half-birthdays.
