A childhood belief about toys

I used to think that if I didn't rotate my stuffed animals then they would get mad at me for not paying attention to some of them and kill me. So I had to sleep every night covered by my stuffed animals and switch which animal I cuddled at night every night from the animals at the top of the bed and then when I finished with those switch all the animals from the foot of the bed with the top and repeat the process. As I grew there soon wasn't enough room for me so I put most of my stuffed animals into a bag and gave them to my dad to put into the garage and I would come down and apologize to them once a week. I wouldn't have them in my room though because they would kill me.
