When my dad was little he asked my grandma how a baby was made. She got quite flustered and simply said "A seed is planted" for several years that if you wanted a baby you had to plant it in your garden
A childhood belief about reproduction
others believed things like this
- I believed that women who wanted babies ate a seed, which then grew into their baby. — World's Worst Scientist
- I believed (thanks to my mum) that babies grew on "baby trees" and simply 'fell off' when they were ripe!!!— Stace
- if you eat a seed, the plant will grow in your tummyAnon
- My mother convinced all of us kids in our family that the large rhubarb in the garden was a Man-Eating Plant. — H.Miller
- I thought my neighbor breastfed her baby because they were too poor to afford baby bottles. Maybe they were!— Kristen
- on "highway to hell" i always thought it goes "baby see, baby do" instead of "hey satan, payin´ my dues"— Miss Understood
