When I was little I used to believe my dad could grow a beard at will. That he could go upstairs fully shaven and come down and have a full beard.
A childhood belief about special powers
others believed things like this

- When i was young about 5 i used to think god was a donkey with a long beard!Anon
- I used to think that the priest at church was JESUS.
He had a beard.... it made sense— Joe B - My uncle harry has a very long beard and a hariy face. I used to think he was a wizard.Anon
- I used to believe that if you were naughty at school then you'd have to go upstairs and sit on your bed!— Eve
- Whenever I was upstairs on a bus, I didn't believe that it would fit under the bridge so I used to duck. — Dave, Lancashire
