When I was 4 and my cousin was 8, I was counting how many years I had to grow to get older. Then I thought, next year I will be 5 and then 6 and then 4 years later I will be 8! And I will be the same age as my cousin! My mom had to explain many times to me that as I grew older, other people (including my cousin), would get older as well.

whenever grown-ups would show me pictures of themselves as children or talk about when they were younger i would not and agree, but secretly i believed that they were just making it up. i thought that there was no way they could have ever been children, and that there was no way i would ever "grow up" and become an adult.

i used to believe that we were suppose to be born as adults and instead of growing older, we are suppose to grow younger. so when the time comes for us to depart from the world, we are to die young instead of dying old... weird right... the thoughts that i had as a child...

when i was really really small , i used to belive that you got up untill you were eleven , then turned into a baby again. when mum said she was thirty nine , i thought you had to pay God a million pounds so you wouldn't be a baby again. I thought this because i was a baby at the time andcould only cound to eleven.

When I was very small I used to believe that when girls grow up a certain age, they automatically become mothers.

When I was around six, my grandma came to visit from a different state. I saw her push her false teeth out with her tongue, and for years I believed that it was a trick you learnt as you got older. Whenever I was bored, I would try to push my teeth out with my tongue. I was determind to do it, to show my friends. I was disappointed that I couldn't do it!

When I was little, I used to believe that boys would turn into women, and girls would turn into men. I guess I believed it because every girl I knew was flat-chested, including myself. I never said anything because I truly believe it was true.

Now I obviously know that doesn't happen, but it is kind of funny looking back...

My brother always firmly believed that one day would be older than me. My mom told him that he wouldn't, but he might be bigger than me. I figured that this meant I'd shrink at a certain age to be smaller than him.

When I first heard about evolution and "humans coming from monkeys" I honestly thought that we were never babies, but monkeys that turned into people. I figuered we never saw the change because it happened in the wild.

When I was younger my Dad told me that people temporarily lost their hearing during their teenage years, which is why they turned up their music so loud. He's a doctor and I believed him for years!

When I was about eight years old my mom asked me one day, what do I want to become when I grow up? I told my mom that I want to become a boy or a man, because i thought that we change gender in a certain stage of growing up.

When i was a kid i thought i would grow up to be a woman, because i lived with my Mom and my older sister. I reckond all girls would be older and boys younger, so once i said something like: "When i am a girl i'm going to have 3 children..."

When I was four, I was a flower girl in my aunt's wedding. When my parents and I were getting ready, my dad held up my mother's maid of honor dress and jokingly asked me, "Do you think I will look good in this?" I said to him as serious as could be, "Don't worry Daddy, when you get older and turn into a woman, you can wear it!" I used to think that people changed genders when they got older!

When I was very little, I thought all adults were perfect. That they never made mistakes in *anything* - like they would never make an error in addition or multiplication, or ever make a mistake. I also believed adults never did bad things, or got angry. I believed this until I was at least 4 or 5.
