When I was little, about 6, 7, or 8, I honestly and truely believed that my mom and dad were psichic. I would constently bother them saying, "What am I thinking now??" over and over. When I was older, about 10, I questioned my parents about it... turns out they could just tell when i was lying like any good parent!!!
