I believed that the man in the moon was my Nan's boyfriend (my granddad was dead). My brother and I would make drawings of him for my Nan to stick on her door so that when the moon was hidden she had a picture of him.

My brother once made me believe that he was an Indian child that my parents found in the woods several years ago. His "real" name was Little Buffalo and he kept saying how his own people would someday come for him..... too bad, they never did.

When I was 5 1/2, we adopted my sister through a private law agency. It had been arranged that we would meet the lawyer to get her - at a local bank. For awhile, I believed, and told people, that babies came from banks. When my other sister came along, I figured it out when I could see that there was no way she fit into the drive-through container.

My half-sister is 14 years older than me, so I was about 5 when she was expecting her first baby. Everyone was really excited about the baby, and so was I until I heard my mom say that when it was born she'd be a grandma. I cried because I thought that the moment the baby was born, my mom would suddenly get white hair and wrinkles and I wouldn't recognize her. Mom had quite a time trying to convince me that all grandmas don't have to be old!

When I was little, my mom had taken a picture of my me and my dad in a pool with me falling into his arms because he had thrown me up. Everytime I saw this picture my dad would tell me this was the day they got me, I was a monkey that fell out of the tree, and luckily they caught me and decided to keep me. Until I was about 7 or 8 I believed them and always wondered why I wasn't growing a tail.

When I was very young, my sister convinced me that we were a part of an elephant's dream. She said if I made too much noise or jumped around too much I would wake up the elephant and when his dream ended, I would cease to exist. This terrified me into being quiet and remaining still.

This story is actually more for our brother...When he was around 2 years old, my sister and I told him that he was born a monkey and had to undergo several operations to make him look like a little boy. Every time we would go to the zoo, my sister and I told him it was cus mom wasn't sure if we were going to keep him or give him back to his real family. (hey, we could have taken the "you're adopted route") It wasn't until he was around 4 that mom finally realized that the poor kid actually believed us... Even today (at 21) he's not so fond of the monkeys... :-

I was an inquisitive child. Whenever there was something my parents couldn't explain there way out of they'd say "It's in the rule book." When I asked to see the rule books they'd insist only parents can see the rule book, and everyone gets it when they have a child so they know all the parenting rules.

They kept this up until I was about 8 or 9!

When I was very young, I used to think an "unfit mother" was literally "unfit" physically. My mom would take me out shopping, and I'd get extremely upset when I'd see an overweight woman out with her children. I just couldn't understand why the police would take her children away just because she was "unfit." It made me so sad, and I remember being glad my own mom was thin.

None of our family gets on particularly well with my dad's parents, and my mum has always called them the "out laws" instead of the "in laws" as a joke. Until I was about 10 - well, until I learned what "in-law" actually means - I believed that your mother's parents were your In Laws and your father's parents were your Out Laws.

I was born 15 years after my closest sibling and the rest were married. Until I was about 6 or so, I used to think that brothers and sisters were attached together like those paper dolls we used to make.

When i was younger my older sister and I slept in bunkbeds.(I slept on the top bunk)

And so every night, I would climb up the ladder to my bunk. And each time i got to the third highest rung, I would try close my eyes and scramble up as fast as i could. For fear that when my sister turned into a werewolf, she would eat my ankles.
