when I was a child, I used to believe rats could come of the sewers by the toilets and live in my home, came in my room so I was scared when I went to the toilets.

When I was a child, I believed that the hole in the sink was connected to Africa. Since I thought there was very little water there, I poured water into the drain every day so that people could drink. I felt proud because I believed I was helping others. One day, my mother was shocked to see me doing it. She explained how things really worked, and I understood. Today, I would still like to help people in Africa, but in a more meaningful and effective way.

When I was little, I used to be very scared of the toilet during the night. I used to believe that was a monster hiding inside it. When I flushed, especially in the dark, I thought the monster would go out the toilet. I used to run out of the bathroom as fast I could, without looking back. This scare started after I watched an horror movie with my older cousin. After this, I used to avoid to flushing at night.
One day, I told my parents about the monster, and they laughted at me so I realized the monster was in my imagination.

I didn't know the word "massage" (as in rubbing) was spelled like that, but I knew the word "massive" and this looked similar, so I was always put LOTS of conditioner in my hair.

I used to think that, because as a child I had graduated from potty seats to normal toilet seats, adults would sit without any toilet seat. So I spent a while trying to balance on an open toilet without falling in.

When I was a little boy, I used to believe that when I take my shower there were ghosts looking at me.
Somedays I didn't want to take a shower because it was an embarrassing situation.
But one day, my friends told me that ghost didn't exist and now fortunatly I can take my shower normally !

I thought that little creatures lived down the bathroom sink, and that I'd have to pour water and put chopped-up soap down the drain occasionally because that was how they ate and drank.
