I used to believe that my grandmother was older than my grandfather because I knew that whoever is the oldest is always in charge. (In truth he was 5 years older)

When I was about 11 or 12, kids at school started talking about "going out" with each other (as a term for dating). I thought they meant literally going out, and I wondered where they would go in such a small town as ours.

When I was about 4 or 5, my cousin would make me mad, so I always said to mayself, "When I grow up, I'll be older than her, and that will show her..." And I don't know how I thought I could become older faster...

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)

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 was little I used to think you got younger instead of older. So I used to say when I was older etc... I also thought I was very old and used to cry because I thought I was going to die soon.

When I was a child, I used to believe that people just kept growing taller as they got older until they were the size of 100 foot giants. Then, after a certain height, they would move to a different place -- a city for giants. Every now and then when I played outside I would look out for giants walking to their new home.

I used to believe that there eas a huge book with all the names and surnames of everyone of your city at the public library. At the left of the name there was a mark that was your signature. One day, when you were old enough to sign things your father had to take you to that book and you had to spend some time looking at your signature. I never thought it the signature was something you could simply make up!

I used to think boys grew up to be women, and girls to men. I was scared to death about giving birth. *whew*

Jimmy

i used to believe that it was really possible to grow up to become an animal for some odd reason. so when the teacher asked me what i wanted to be when i grew up i would tell her that i wanted to be a turtle

I used to believe that you grew up and then once you got to be a old fart you then started to grow young again. I thought that my grandmother and I would be the same age as she began to grow young again!

When I grew up, I was going to be a mom with no kids.

My mother always said I should write a book called, "I Useda Think.." Finally There's a place out there for all the rediculous things "I Useda think" as a child. One of them goes like this..

I Useda Think that If you were born as one sex, half-way through your life you turned into the other sex.

I used to believe that little boys grew up to be girls and little girls grew up to be boys.

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!

when we were very (four or five-ish) me and my sister would occasionaly be taken to see our great grandmother, between us me and my sister privatly decided that she must be at least 100 years old, because she was so wrinkly and decrepid.

when she died a while after that i decided that everyone must get to live exactly 100 years before they popped there clogs.

In retrospect this seems a lot fairer than only getting 60-70 years if your lucky

When i was little my friends actually got me to belive that when you would grow up u would change so that if you were a girl when u grew up u would become a boy, and the same if you were a boy but just opposite. it took me 6 years to figure it out that it was untrue
