I was told that if you sleep with a bra on your breast wouldn't grow. Now it's impossible for me to sleep in a bra because it doesn't feel comfortable, and yet I still have small breast.
When my older sister was younger, she thought that her toenails would fall off if anyone touched them. She's still afraid to let anyone touch her feet.
I used to believe that my feelings were in my shoulders.
top belief!
Me and my sister used to think that our ankles were rocks and we asked my mom how to get the rocks out of our feet.
When I was five, I asked my dad why the right hand was called right. Was the left hand wrong or bad? He must have thought the question was funny, and told me that yes my left hand was my evil hand, and that is why I must do everything right handed. Ever since then, when I knowingly do something wrong, I do it left handed.
I used to believe that an Adams apple was a piece of apple that was stuck in someone's throat.
I used to believe that the mole on my knee was from poking it with a permanent marker when I was about six years old.
I thought if someone with muscles got shot or stabbed in a muscle, said muscle would deflate.

I was at my friends house the other day and her little brother (5 years old I think) came into her room and she was like "DAD TELL HIM TO GET OUT OF MY ROOM!" and her dad was like "Come on Sean, you can go in there untill you grow boobies."
my sister used to believe that it's the pair of shoes that reduce in terms of size not our feet which become bigger than the shoes
I USED TO THINK MY FOOT WAS ACTUALLY DEAD WHEN IT WENT ALL TINGLY. I THOUGHT IT WAS SO SERIOUS WHEN THAT HAPPENED. AND I USED TO SQUINT AT THE CEILING AND IMAGINE THAT IT RESEMBLED PICTURES, OR MOVED A LITTLE BIT AND LOOKED LIKE MOVIE SCENES, BUT LATER MOM TOLD ME IT WAS BECAUSE I HAD A BAD FEVER WHEN I WAS TWO YEARS OLD. magik and the O.T.O betwixt.
when I was a little kid, I was told that if I bleed any part of my body, like my hands or knees, the food that I ate will get out with the bleeding. This belief succeeded in making me stop crying n paying more attention to the scar instead.
My parents always told me that when you make funny faces and the clock turns 12 your face would be that way forever.

I didn't know what "cleavage" meant. I had never heard the word until seventh grade. I figured it out pretty quickly, but before that I thought "showing cleavage" meant wearing pants so low that your butt crack showed.
I used to believe that the soul was an actual physical organ of the body like the liver or the stomach.
It was yellow, and shaped like a lighning bolt. About 20cm long it sat just under the left brest.
I use to think that my whole entire Belly was my stomach, i never really thought about the other organs in my belly i just that it was one big stomach where all my food went.

Okay. For a while, up until last summer, I somehow thought I could get a deadly disease through my own blood or something, or maybe thought I could somehow pass a horrible disease to my guardians if they touched me and I was wearing an even-slightly-bloodied article of clothing. So I was afraid of my own blood, and the Time Of Month was even worse because of that. I was afraid to touch my own blood. Finally my guardian told me how futile it was to fear my own blood...I already know what's in MY blood.
I still do not like getting blood on things, even my own blood, but at least now I know a disease isn't gonna magically appear out of thin air if I get my blood on something.

When I was a very young child for some reason my mother told me that armpits were "private places" and I should never look at anyone's bare armpit. I grew up believing this and didn't realize it was not so until I was about fifteen. I've asked my mother several times if she remembers telling me that armpits were private, but she does not and denies ever saying something so ridiculous. To this day (I am 22 years old) I still get shy when I see a bare armpit.
i used to believe that boys had three balls and everyone had the same birthmark as me on their wrist.

When I was young, I couldn't figure out how my insides fit together. I finally decided that it was like the sky at night, very dark, and that my organs just floated around in there, like stars.
