When I grew up, I was going to be a mom with no kids.
impatient at my growth rate,i used to belief that by stepping into my mum's footprints when i was 8 or 9 will actually make me grow older until she caught me one day,after telling her my reason,she explained it doesnt make one grow faster.

I used to believe that all people werer born the size that they were. so i thought i would never grow any bigger and that my dad was born as full grown person.

when i was four years old, i asked my mum how old she was. she said '21', as lying about one's age was common among women in those days (and, of course, still is!). When, two years later, her birthday arrived, I sent her a card saying 'happy 23rd birthday, mummy!'. She was 44. i guess when you are a small child one adult looks very much like another - whether they are 16 or 61!

Up until the age of about 6 I always believed that people were born as either adults or children; I was one of the unlucky ones I used to think until the day I could switch the light switch off without standing on something, which made me realise I was in fact growing up

When I was young, I used to believe that Life was in 4 steps. At birth, your a child until ur 25, then ur an adult until your 50, then old until your 75, then it's Golf and Bingo until your 100!
i used to believe my mum was older than my dad because her birthday was before his. my dad encouraged this thought until the day i realised i was wrong.

Til the age of around 9, I believed that everyone never got any older, getting old was their punishment from God. I thought old people were born old, and so on.
I also thought the whole world was my state till the age of 8 when I was sadly proved wrong when my family took a flight to the eastern coast to visit relatives.

when i was young i thought that all grown ups changed their name when they got older so they would sound more professional

When I was about 4 years old, my older cousin who was a boy, told me that boys were always older than girls, and I believed him until I was about seven years old.

I used to believe that kids got older while grown-ups got smaller.

top belief!
My father, the loving man he is, told me that when i turned twelve, I would turn into a boy. But my sister (who was thirteen at the time) was a girl. I pointed this out to him, and told me that Heather had been a boy untill she turned twelve. From then on I had my mom buy me boys clothes so that I would be prepared. I was pissed off when I turned twelve and was still a girl.

this isn't relly about me but my brother used to think that when you got older you tured the opposite sex. so one day he said "dad, what was it like when you were a girl?"
Matt (my brothers name is vince)
until i was about 9 or 10 i believed that people never stopped growing until they died - i used to imagine that people who lived to 100 were about 8 feet tall!
a very naive individual
when I was little, I used to believe that one day you just woke up and were a grown-up!

I used to think that when you go out on a date, you would go to this one place a lot like the mall called "The Date" that had stores, restaurants, Movies, CD shops, and even phone booths. and supposedly it was a HUGE skyscraper thingy
