When I was little, whenever I asked my parents where babies came from (I must not have believed them or forgot because I asked more than once), they would always say they had found me underneath a leaf. I believed them up untill I asked my brother, who said I was adopted which was also a lie. The whole thing ended around the point where I thought babies came from adoption centers which were underneath a leaf. Untill my parents bought me a book of Human Anatomy, thats what I believed till around 5th grade.
