when i was about 4 or 5 the way my older sisters would get me out of the room was to say "the carpet can eat you lily you'd better run" i would always run away thinking it would eat me.
A childhood belief about around the house
others believed things like this
- My older brother used to tell me that if I "untied" it, I'd fly around the room like a balloon. — Gullible youth
- i used to think that my sister was a genie and flew a magic carpet at nightAnon
- I believed you ran the vacuum to cut the carpet and used the lawn mower to smooth out the grass.— Michelle
- I used to believe that my sisters "make believe dog" was real— me
- My sisters once told me if I blinked too much I would get cancer.
How mean... D:— Budster - a friend of my little sister's had 4 older brothers, so she thought that when you got older you grew a penis!Anon
