I used to believe that all my aunts were related to my mother and all my uncles were related to my father.

When I was about seven my dad was awarded an 'M Phil' degree (Master of Philosophy). Because his name is Philip I was convinced that they had given him a special award that was a shortened version of his name. So I believed that if his friend Duncan had got one, it would have been an M Dunc.

Dazed and confused

when i was around 7. my sister told me that i had to pay her, for being my sister. i got scared that she wouldn't be my sister if i didn't give her the money. so i stole $10 from my mother's purse and gave it to her. when my mother realised the money was missing she asked me if i had seen it. i told her thta my sister had it. my mother shouted at her took her money back and grounded her for a week. hahahahaha she got what she deserved!!

I used to belive that adults were never kids. I thought that they just stayed the way they were until they died. I was amazed to find out that they were kids at one time.

I used to believe that my dad was the guy on those Brawny paper towles. Now i look back and i realize that the only thing in common is that they both have a mustache. They dont look alike AT ALL

Now, I was a one of those 'nerdy' booksmart kids who thought they knew everything. One time, we were celebrating my Uncle's Dad's birthday and I was pigging out on the cake. My Mom's friends were talking about dating and I said 'I'm gonna be the person every guy wants to go out with!' My mom's friend Ed said 'Isn't that a little vain?' I shook my head and to,d him 'It's because all the guys don't have to spend money on me' Ed asked why and I told him it's because I was allergic to metal. So, instead of a guy showing up at my door with jewerly, I prefer he just bring money!
They laughed so hard I thought my mom was gonna burst. I spouted out 'What's so funny?!?' Ed laughed and said: 'That's called Prostitution honey.' To this day, I'm still embarrassed about it.

When I was little, because they looked a lot alike, I thought my dad was Howard Cunningham from Happy Days. I saw him leave for work in the morning, and then in the middle of the day I saw him on TV for a half an hour with his TV family, and then he came back home to us, his real family, in the evening. This made me really happy because I thought when I grew up, I'd get to be the Fonz, and they'd have to give me a motorcycle.

When I was about 2 or 3, my older sister would never like me to go out with my dad when she was going out, so she would tell me that there was a big monster outside who would eat little kids like me, so when they would be outside i'd watch from the window and my sister would warn me when the monster was coming and i'd run and hide!haha

when i was little i used to think that every old woman was my granny. so whenever we'd go to the beach or anywhere at all basically i used to wander off and come back with a few old ladies with me. they loved me!

When I was 4 my parents told me my baby sister was coming the next summer. Shortly after I started having the dream that I dropped my sister in a witches brew and my parents disowned me. Back then I thought dreams told the future so when she was born I refused to hold her because I was afraid I would be disowned. I refused to even go into the kitchen till I was 6 if she was in there.

I used to believe that every time my parents would go out of the house, just to like get the paper or something, i would think that they were running for the car to leave me here forever. Now I beg them to leave so I can have some alone time!

When I was four my mom gave birth to my brother.When he would do something cute they would say he was "acting like a little nut".The only other time heard this word "nut"was when my dad was changing a flat tire on our car,so i freaked when we were driving one day and we heard a rattle from the front of the car and my dad said it sounded like we had a loose nut in the hub cap.I crawled over the front seat to make sure my brother hadn't gotten out of the car some way and hid in the hubcap and when I saw him laying in my moms arms my next immediate thought was after we'd get another flat my dad would bring back a new baby.
