When i was in my tween years and started using a curling iron, my brothers made me believe that if i left the house without turning the curling iron off, it would explode and burn our house down. Then i realized that it had a self power OFF option and wanted to slap my brothers in the face for worrying me to death!!
A childhood belief about around the house

others believed things like this
- I used to believe that the rock thing they used in the sport Curling, was a tea kettle.— Kaninchen
- that song that goes *bring me a higher love*
i thought it said *breathing in iron lung*— oi - when I was young, I heard that blood had iron in it. I thought blood was red because it was rusty.— Hunter
- I used to believe that when you moved house you swapped house with the person moving into your old house.Anon
- when I was a kid, I used to believe that only girls could be my friends and all other boys were my brothers.
