When i was 4 my older brother who was 9 told me dat wen i became a tennager i would become a completly different person and no-one would recognise me and i would have to find a new family. i got so upset that he confessed later that night that it was a lie!!!

I honestly believed when I was a kid that some day, at some age (I wasn't sure what age) when I got older everyone would come to me and say, "The way you have been experiencing everything is not the way it really is. Everything is actually better. You just had to experience the bad stuff so you could appreciate the way it 'really is'." Funny, I just grew up and realized everything is just the way it is. You just have to deal with.
Sometimes it is good, sometimes it is bad. Deal with it!

I used to believe that we were all born one way; as adults or as children. I thought that I would live until the age of about nine and then die.

I used to think that if you were a boy when you were a kid, you would grow up to be a girl and if you were born a girl you would grow up to be a girl. So i thought my dad was once a girl and my mom was once a boy. a little weird dont you think?

My cousin is about 4 years younger than me but when we were little we would always play at my grandmothers house. Sometimes I would boss her around and she would always yell back "Ugh I just cant WAIT till im older than you!"

i used to believe that when you were a little girl, you'd grow up to be a man.

I used to think that all teenagers were naturally cool. So I used to belive that when you turn into a teenager you would naturally turn cool and wear the coolest clothes and skate around.ect.
BOY I WAS PIG IGNORANT!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't really know where to put this but here was one of my beliefs-
When I was little, I liked animals so I wanted to be a vet when I grew up. My older brother and sister told me that vets were mean to animals, but strippers were very nice to animals. So at church one day, somebody asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. Naturally, I said I wanted to be a stripper! (at least they didnt tell me that hookers were the ones that were nice to animals!!)

I used to believe that first you grew up as a baby, kid, adult, then teenager. How wierd.

I used to believe that I was once married and went to college. Kind of like you never spot living, you grow up and grow down

When my mom was little she thought that when you grew up you were either an indian or a cowboy. However she also thought when she grew up she would eventually turn into a boy (you can see how well that turned out for her, she is know a teacher)

I thought that, by age 10, you were a grown-up. I think I got this idea from babysitters who were only in their teens, but were in charge.

My dad used to tell me that when I got into my teens, I would turn into a "Gorshkin," a kind of animal that has horns. I used to picture some kind of gargoyle or puck creature.

It turns out it was his little joke, and he actually told me that in my teens, I would become a Gorshkin, which was "horny" creature.

When I was around 3 or 4, In Day Care, there was a boy who was the same as me who I had a 'crush' on. I really liked him and missed him when I stopped going to that Day Care. Then a few years later, I told my mom that I missed him and that he was probably a grown-up now

Amanda

My dad always tried to convince us that when we turned sixteen, our gender would change; ie., I would become a boy! Scary thought!

This i actually what my little brother belived. I had started school and did my homework. My brother wanted to have homework to, so he told everyone that when he became a girl he was going to do his homework.

When my son was young (about 3) he believed that people were born male and then grew up and got to be mommies. He was going to have 100 babies when he was a mommy. It made me feel really special and loved that he thought I was the pinnacle of evolution :}
