When I was about 1 1/2 and started potty training my 14 year old sister told me that when I went to the bathroom and used the toilet the devil would grab me and pull me down into the sewers where I would be lost for ever. I didn't want to use the toilet... Not until my other sister explained to me that she was just trying to scare me.
