When I was little, I was so freaked out be natural disasters that I absolutley could not go to sleep unless my mom told me everynight, "No earthquakes, no fires, no tornados, and nothing else bad will happen to not." I guess my Mom thought it was neat that I believed her saying that will make it happen.
