When he was like four, my younger cousin only drank iced tea with dinner and hated milk. To get him to drink his milk, my grandmother told him that if he drank anything but milk past 6 PM he would stay short forever because milk made you grow while you slept. He believed it for a LONG time and would holler at us when we drank iced tea or soda at dinner and tell us we'd never get big. Awww. ^_^
