I couldn't count any higher than 10 when I was about 5 years old or so. I used to think that people would grow up and age one by one but once they got to 10 they would start going back down. For example, you turn 9 then 10 then back to 9 and then 8 and so on, just go up and down between 1 and 10 until you die.
I'm an idiot!
