When I was younger I used to believe everyone was robots and that I was the only human. That there were other humans but I could not find them and I needed to
top belief!
When I was about 5, I thought you could get free paper from a printer. I thought that if you don't type anything and then click the "print" button, you could get a blank piece of paper without going to the store and purchasing it with money. I thought I was a genius, since nobody had ever thought of it before, until after a few days ago when our printer ran out of paper. That's when I discovered that you need to put paper inside the printer and that paper doesn't just magically come from printers.
Paper Genius
When i was younger i believed i was the star of the entire world

I used to think I was a Waterbender (ya know, like Avatar) because when we went to the public pool and I was playing with the water, I noticed that if you push up under the water, the water jumps up a bit. Uneducated little kid I was, I thought "woah, I can control water!" I know now it was just displacement of water and I'm not a superhuman. I also thought this because I could see, talk, and hear underwater. Blissfully unaware that everyone ELSE can see, talk, and hear underwater too.

I'm autistic, and I used to believe taking some of my sister's food while she was eating it was sharing.
I thought being mentally challenged meant you couldn't do any challenges with people
When I was young, I used to think the Santa Claus existed. With my brother, we put flour on the floor. The next day, we checked and there were footprints in the flour.
One day, when I was 13, my father told me it was him
who made the footprints with his boots.
I was frustrated but it was funny.
I used to believe than the moon was in cheese... then I grew up... and watched a documentary too. This imagination... Astronomy hides many surprises !

My parents said I could be anything I wanted to be, so I said i wanted to be an octopus. My parents said that means you can choose your job, not species. I then started screaming "But mommy, i want to become an octopus!" and my mom would say "No you can't, changing your species is not possible" and we argued about that alot. hehehehe
Lori
When I was 7 or 8 my mom told me that you could be anything you want to be. I believed she meant literally enything, so i wanted to become a meerkat when i grow up. When the teacher would tell me on career day what i want to be, i would say "a meerkat!". I got disappointed when i never saw a real meerkat on career day, but it was fun.

when i was in the primary school i used to believe that i was an indistructible robot, but one day a classmate hit me, it hurt me, and i cried.
I remember at a very young age, realising that I was significantly more intelligent than children of my own age, and far more empathic, meaning I would never truly fit in as we weren't on the same level.
MegaBrains
I used to believe (And still do) that I was the only "Real" Person and that everyone else was just some kind of robot. I never care about others feeling because of how boring and "Unreal" other people around me were. I don't think I will stop believing this until I meet a "Real" person like me.
Lily
My Sister Used To Believe She Could Fly By Driniking Water From A Magic Forton. I Told She Couldn't.

When i was 11, i used to believe that an owl hadn't delivered me a letter from Hogwars for a large error of fate.
I was sure that i was a wizard! Lol.

Daniele
I thought I could grow wings by jumping off of things a lot.
Once, when I took a shower, I saw that the water "Coming out" of my fingertips.
I was just like: "I'm magical."
So I saw an episode of "H2O,Just add water," and saw how they could control water. I was convinced for so long that I was some mermaid magic person.
I used to believe that everything was a dream and I was going to awake someday and end with the life as I knew it was.
