When I was a kid, I was a bit confused about the word 'prosecuted' and consequently thought that prostitutes were all people who had been caught trespassing. You know, "Trespassers will be Prosecuted."
A childhood belief about criminals
others believed things like this
- when I was younger I used to believe that prosecuted meant that you would be killed!— tony
- I used to think that prostitutes were female lawyers. It just sounded so official...— MC
- I used to get mad when people used the word "native" because I thought they were making fun of my name!— Nate
- In first grade, I thought that if I've never heard of a word before, then it wasn't a word.— Destiny
- I used to think that the word blurb was a noise that people made when being sick. Bluuuggghhh.— Natasha
- A billboard sign read: Moonshine kills.
I thought being caught outside by the moon would kill me. Humph.Anon
