If anyone in my family found a spider in the house they would kill it and flush it down the toilet. I was always afriad one would not die then it would crawl up the toilet and into my bum. I wsa scared of the toilet until about age 9.
A childhood belief about fear of
others believed things like this
- I used to beleve when i was 4 that the flush on the toilet was to wake up toilet monsters.— Millie
- My brother (who was 6 at the time) would never flush the toilet in fear of our new house being blown up! Anon
- When I was 8 I thought a spider lived in the toilet and would bite me if I sat on it.— Mike
- i used to believe that scoripons could crawl up your toilet and pull you in.
No thanks to my big brother!— Alexandra - I thought that toilet paper was bread and by puting it it the toilet i was feeding the ducks at the bottem.— Gringo
