Tom and I were talking about this this morning and got a good laugh out of some of the stuff we used to believe when we were kids.

When I was very small, for some reason I had a deathly fear of the moon. If it was dark outside and I looked out the window and the moon was out I always thought that it was going to come down and get me. I remember being afraid to go in the bathroom by myself because I could see it through the window. My brothers would always tease me about that.

I used to think that the world used to be in black and white because of all the old B+W movies and my moms childhood pictures.

I also remember watching that show Eight is Enough and thinking that that was a real life family.

I also thought that you got pregnant by hugging and kissing.

What are some silly things you all used to believe in?

My parents were very down to earth and did not encourage superstitions so I am not superstitious at all. But I did believe in Santa Claus for a while. That ended at about age 4 I think. Right at the moment I cannot think of anything weird that I believed as a child. :lol:

I hope I don't offend anyone, just remember it's silly things we believed AS CHILDREN. I used to believe that if I didn't eat all the chinese food that was served to me when my dad would buy it from the local chinese restaurant, that a samuari (spelling?) would come around and flash his sword at me. I imagined this guy coming in the night with painted white face and his hair in that ponytail type style with the pants that go just to the knees. I think you all know what i am describing.
I also used to believe that monsters in Japan did exist. I watched Giant Robot too much I guess.

i believed that if you slept on the floor then an earthquake would happen-cause it happened once and also i beleive that after you said your prayers at night you couldnt get out of bed-so everytime i got up to go the bathroom id say them all over again lol

That's funny darlene!!!!!

Ok! I just remembered something! :lol: One summer night when I was very small( back in the 50's) I was watching TV with my dad and I heard a loud buzzing sound outside of our screen door(back in those days we kept our doors open at night) Anyway, I thought that termites were eating our house! :lol: Sometime or other I had learned about termites and I was petrified! I never said anything to him about it but ,man, was I scared! :lol: He seemed unconcerned so I guess I just forgot about it. The buzzing sound was June Bugs :lol: (I realized that later) But I still remember how scared I was! :eek: Other than that I didn't get scared too easily. :D

Hey! I thought that too! :lol: But in sex education in the 8th grade (circa 1963)I learned that it was not true! My Mom who was from the 40's generation did not tell me anything! That can really be dangerous as she now realizes. But I still believe that it is the parent's place to educate their children in these matters. Not some stranger. My kids were told the truth by age 10(by their father and me). Back in my day it was never discussed! :eek:
Whew! I was so clueless! :crazy:

I was 15 and I assumed all a man had to do to impregnate a woman was to insert his ****. I didn't know abt the "sperm" part. You know what I mean.

I believed that if you rubbed against something like a wall, you'd start a fire. :eek:

Haha...good thread!!

I KNOW I have a lot of "childhood beliefs," but I can't think of them all right now. I will try and post them as I recall them. I remember one, though....

I remember when I was in elementary school, my mom used to tell me that a baby "comes out" through surgical procedure across a women's stomach. Just like a C-section but in EVERY pregnancy that's how a baby was born! :lol:

Wow! I didn't even know that much at age 15! All I knew was that for some strange reason whenever I saw or heard Paul and The Beatles I had this very strange urge............................................... :lol: :crazy:

I used to think women got pregnant all of a sudden! :lol:

"The vapors?" :lol: Good name... ;)

I thought women could get preganat by being around kids :crazy:
I thought that the moon was made of cheese
I thought that the tooth fairy was my grandma
I was scared of oreos

I used to think women got pregnant all of a sudden! :lol:
I remember when I was 7 I saw a pregnant woman up-close for the first time. I assumed her stomach, if I could see under her maternity top, would look just like an eggshell. I didn't understand how a baby got there. I just assumed it grew there too and her stomach area would look like that. BOY WAS I STUPID.

Haha! My Mom always said that "God provides an opening" in which I deduced that the baby fell out of the stomach. You see I was the second born in a family of 7 kids so I saw my Mom pregnant several times! My Mom never (to this day) told me the facts. :lol:

i thought that too :lol:

Ohhh...that reminds me of a similar belief. I used to also think that clouds "tasted" and were fluffy like mashed potatoes. I always imagined if the clouds were EVER sunken low, they would taste great with gravy! :lol:

Another childhood story: My sister, a neighborhood friend, and I grabbed these tall beverage glasses, and we packed mud into them. It would our plot to serve to strangers who would try and kidnap us and "trick" them by telling them it was a "chocolate milkshake." LOL! Yeah, like who would be stupid to drink that now? :lol:

Man, it was just soooo funny to be a kid! :crazy:

I also used to think you got pregnant from hugging and kissing. I watched soap operas when I was 9 and during all of the "sex" scenes they were only kissing passionately so I just assumed that's what sex was.

I thought babies came out the mom's butt. Ouchhhhh lol.

I thought that the tooth fairy was my grandma.


Er, it probably was. :lol:

I thought everyone lived to be a hundred and died on their hundredth birthday. Then my maternal grandfather died at 62. :( A month later, my uncle (my dad's older brother) died at 34. :( :( I was only four then.

I thought that thunder meant that the angels were bowling.

I remember when I first heard about death. I thought we lived forever.

I thought my parent's marriage was perfect. It was a good marriage, but it wasn't until I became an adult and friends with my mother did I learn that they weren't Ward and June Cleaver.

I had no concept of money. Thought everything just appeared.

I'm a couple of years younger than Marcia Marcia on The Brady Bunch (Maureen McCormick). When I was about 10, my friend and I were making plans to move to Hollywood to star in a show, just like Marcia. I honestly thought this was going to happen when I got older.

I thought my childhood would last forever.

I thought my parent's marriage was perfect. It was a good marriage, but it wasn't until I became an adult and friends with my mother did I learn that they weren't Ward and June Cleaver.
.

I dont remember that :( I dont remember my parents ever having a good marriage, they divorced when I was in first grade.

I do remember thinking when i dug holes in my sandbox, I would reach China. My parents always told me to stop when I hit China.

Didn't know about sex, I thought just all of a sudden you were pregnant, and I was scared I was gonna get pregnant when I wasn't ready

I believed that when you swore the devil was gonna come out of the ground and kill you er something

I thought boys didn't have eyelashes

I thought that princesses and castles were on the other side of the lake here (mom told me that one...and the devil one lol, she was probably kidding but little kids don't know)

I thought Santa lived in the sky, and I talked to him like God by looking up at the sky...er...North IS up so...that's what I figured...

I used to think teachers lived at school

I, and the other girls, actually thought we could build a castle out of about 20 large blocks in kindergarten. We never found out the truth because the boys would always come and knock whatever we had down

Didn't know about sex, I thought just all of a sudden you were pregnant, and I was scared I was gonna get pregnant when I wasn't ready

:lol:

I was terrified of Grover. :lol:

Up until I was like 3 I thought I was the only little kid in the world. (I was an only child, had older cousins and neighbors, but none my age!) Boy was nursery school a shock.

I thought you could go to the hospital and pick a baby to bring home.

when I was very little I thought my cousin David (he was in his mid-20s and was sort of a leftover hippie, loooong hair, beard, etc..) was God.

When I got my first diary I thought once you were done with it you were supposed to bury it outside. (y'know in mysteries how they always find diaries....)

I thought the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles lived in the suburbs and my friends and I lived in the sewers. :lol:

1. While my parents were driving, I used to think that the moon was following us. The same thing with the sun.
2. As far as pregnancy, I told my parents that if they had a boy, they can just leave it in there. I didn't understand that once the kid was born, it was out. ( :lol: good thing I had a sister.)

I thought women could get preganat by being around kids :crazy:
I thought that the moon was made of cheese
I thought that the tooth fairy was my grandma
I was scared of oreos

Why did Oreos scare you? :crazy: :lol:

-I used to that that there were movies where all they did was kiss...the entire time...no diolauge.
-I thought Ice Cream was I Scream
-I was scared that I was gonna get locked in the mall
-I thought if you held your breath for over 10 seconds you would die
-I thought that you just automaticaly get pregnant and that when you get pregnant you can choose what baby you want

I thought that thunder meant that the angels were bowling.



Me too :lol:

i used to read a lot of Archie comics as a kid, so....I thought all teenage boys had TWO girls constanly fighting over them and drove a Model-T Ford @_@ ( im serious here, Believe it or dont )

Haha...good thread!!

My mom told me something similar when she was pregnant with my brother...
She said: "The baby is in my tummy and will come out through a little door."
I distinctly remember thinking all girls had a little square door in their tummies, and that the navel was the button to open it; for many years thereafter.
( Strangely I never wondered why I had a navel TOO, even though Mom told me boys couldnt be mommies :crazy: )

Boys can't be mommies, but they CAN BE MAMA'S BOYS'

I used to think teachers lived at school

So did I!

me too....i was almost horrified to see my teacher at the supermarket....she was married and ATE FOOD!!!!! ( Like a real person!! OMG )

:rofl: They have a site for that kinda thing! www.iusedtobelieve.com :D

I can't really think of anything at the moment...but I do have two.

I went to this elementary school part-time in 1988 and full-time from 1989 until 1992. They had two swingsets on the playground and I used to believe that the higher you swung on them, you would move up a level in school...like if I didn't really swing, I was still in grade school. If I put more force into it, I would be in middle school and if I swung really high, I'd be in high school. Ha...I didn't start middle school until 1995 and high school until 1999.

And I seriously thought Matt Groening modeled the Simpsons after my family...When the Simpsons debuted as a primetime sitcom in December of 1989, my brother was 9, my sis was 7 and I was 4. My brother turned 10 in the spring of 1990 and my sis and I turned 8 and 5 that following summer...I thought Matt modeled them after us because of our ages and the order of children in my family, not to mention my sibs were both the same age as Bart & Lisa the year it debuted.

We did have some fun with that, though...My sis and I went as Lisa and Maggie Simpson for Halloween in 1990 and we tried to get my brother to do the same thing too but he went as a vampire instead. :mad:

I remember my mama telling me at Christmas 2000 that Santa Claus threw ashes in your eyes if you weren't sleep. I slept in my sister's bed that night.

All through elementary school when we got our last report card for the year I was always terrified that I hadn't passed. Never mind that I got all A's and B's. :lol:

Ohhhh! I remember another belief I had regarding that! I always thought that if somebody got on the A or B honor roll, it was because the teachers had REALLY liked an essay they'd written, and that all the words in that essay started with "A" or "B." :rofl: I think I was in first grade when I first thought of that. :lol:

I just thought of another thing! I remember walking around outside when I was about 7 checking to see if my heart was still beating. :lol:


Oh and another thing I used to do during the night when I would hear a noise and get scared. I would hum the "Bonanza" theme song to get my mind off being scared :lol:
And I just found out that my sister used to do the same thing! Weird, huh? Why Bonanza!? :crazy:

i used to beleeve in santa and the tooth fairy but my parents sucked at bein the tooth fairy they dropped my tooth on the floor by my bed once and i woke up and found money and my tooth........and once i wanted a polly pocket and my mom was like you have to say " i want a polly pocket" 100 times or santa wont get it for you....wut a bitch now that i kno theres no santa and she just made that up im pissed lol she also got some guy to call and say he was santa once because i was bad ....shes a meany

All through elementary school when we got our last report card for the year I was always terrified that I hadn't passed. Never mind that I got all A's and B's. :lol:
I was like that too :lol:

Because a cow is so far away from a car when you drive by a farm, I being a city boy thought a cow was the size of a large dog....i ran screaming when i finally saw one close up ( I was about 7 at the time ) and it seemed the size of a small truck ( to me ). #@_@# {blush}

Being raised Catholic I thought the way a woman got pregnant was to pray to God for a baby and it just appeared in her belly. I found out the truth a few years later and was shocked! :eek:

All I knew was that for some strange reason whenever I saw or heard Paul and The Beatles I had this very strange urge............................................... :lol: :crazy:[/QUOTE]I once asked a Sunday School teacher right in the middle of a lesson where babies came from, when I was 7. This might have been before or after my younger brother was born. I must have made that lady's whole day (fortunately I was the ONLY kid in the class that morning). She simply said that they put a seed inside the mother, and then after a certain period of time, you would get a baby! I thought, "Seeds, huh?" I wondered if you could get a pack of those seeds down at the lawn and garden shop in downtown Renton....:idea:

:lol:

i also used to think that when you went to sleep you stopped breathing- i lost a lot of sleep that year

I'm sure there are a lot of things, but one thing I can think of right now is that I thought that bats were imaginary made up animals. like the Dragon. Then when I saw one one time or heard about one, I realized they were real! :eek:

The first time i saw mosquito larvae in some dirty standing water, i thought id discovered a new species of fish unknown to science...I even gave them a name: "Water Snoopys" after the dog in the "Peanuts" cartoon :crazy:

I remember when I was a little kid like age 6 or 7 that I thought you could get pregnant by accidentally touching bums with someone as you walked by them and bumped into them accidentally. That's about the stupidest thing I ever believed as a kid. Looking back, I laugh at it now.

i remember thinking horses were male cows , rather than bulls.....maybe it had something to do with the BF/GF relationship of Horace and Clarabelle???

I remember being mad at the toothfairy when I was little because they always gave me quarters, and not dollar bills.

I woke up one night, and from where my bed was, I could see the living room. I saw something on the couch one night, and I thought it was a troll b/c he was hunched over(feet where your butt goes and butt where the back of your head goes). I remember being scared to death, and if I didn't move and went back to sleep, he wouldn't hurt me. Turns out, it was my dad smoking a cigarette in the middle of the night.

I used to believe that everyone had a great life, w/ all of the money in the world.

I knew that my cousin lived in Ohio(i'm in NC) and I used to wonder, if I looked up, if she'd be poking her head down at me and yell hey to me.

When I was about 5, I'd to listen to Christian music because I though Jesus would get mad at me if I didn't. (What a hoot)

The toothfairy always left me $5.00 :lol:

Oh, I got like $5....In quarters.

geezzz all i ever got was a dime per tooth

The toothfairy always left me $5.00 :lol:

I always got 10 cents a tooth. Back in the 50's a dime would buy a lot of candy! :D

I thought that thunder meant that the angels were bowling.



I had no concept of money. Thought everything just appeared.



:lol: Weird - I was the same! My grandmother told me that thunder was the angels bowling with God and the lightning was when they got a strike so I should cheer whenever lightning flashes. (sure does help you get through a storm easier tho when you're little).

I remember asking my father that if he had a credit card, then why did we need money - just use the card. (I wish! :rolleyes: )

When I first heard of oral sex, I thought it meant just sitting around talking about having sex. What a shock I was in for! :eek:

I used to read a lot of Archie comics as a kid, so....I thought all teenage boys had TWO girls constanly fighting over them and drove a Model-T Ford @_@ ( im serious here, Believe it or dont )

On the other hand, the suggestion in Archie comics that decent, likeable, modest teenage boys are clumsy, trouble-prone, oafs who are despised by thier high school principals and their girlfirends' fathers and whose lives normally get ruined by mean-spirited, egocnetric big-man-on-campus types with enough class and style to charm the pants off anyone and who do everything insufferably well - like Reggie - turned out to be absolutely correct!
:mad:

BTW, Archie once revealed that his jalopy was a collection of replacement parts from several different car makes - all rom the junkyard. :lol: Reggie, of course, always had a late-model sports car.

I also used to think the world in the 50s and back was all black and white, mostly due to my obsession with the Lucille Ball/Desi Arnaz show, I Love Lucy.

pat

I thought there were two Michael Jacksons- a white one and a black one

Well, its true that he used a lot of junk parts, but, as you can see here, from the very first day he got it, Archies car WAS a model-T Ford ( As per Archie creator Bob Montana, Pep comics March 1942 )

I just thought of another oneee. When I was little, like when Bob Dole was running...I totally thought he was the one that made dole bananas...

Wouldn't that be God no matter what??! ;) :lol:

lolll, yeah...well I didn't actually believe he MADE them...I just thought he was the owner of the company er something...I thought the banana guy was running for president

geezzz all i ever got was a dime per tooth


Thats about what I got. If I ever got a quarter I'd probably have a heart attack. :lol:

I just thought of another oneee. When I was little, like when Bob Dole was running...I totally thought he was the one that made dole bananas...

You're not far off. Sanford Dole was the American planter who established the company in Hawaii and had the mornachy their overthrown so he could become a Hawaiian citizen, establish a republic, and have it "annexed" by the United States. Hawaii became a territory in 1898, a state in 1959.

When Bob Dole first ran for office, he served Dole pineapple juice at campaign rallies to publicize his name. His opponent claimed to have lost by "being drowned in pineapple juice!" :lol:

When I was little - five or six - I thought Africa was a country and Nigeria, which I was taught about in first grade, was a state of Africa.

Our President used to think Africa was a country too - when he was 54! :eek2:

when i was little i thought that the Sphinx was carved as a lion because the Egyptians were lions. i was in for such a shock when i met Makayla (who is Egyptian and has cat-like features).

i thought when animals died they went to a heaven where only their type of animal went. when our cat Samantha died when I was 4, and i asked my dad where she was, he said "She is in cat heaven, a place full of milk, litter, and dead fish."

when i first saw Muslims on the news at 9/11 i thought the Muslim women wore all those heavy clothes and robes to hide moles and blemishes on their bodies.

i always thought that old shows were black and white because the world was really black and white back then.


i thought if you dug really deep into the ground you would find hell and Satan. i planned on digging a really deep hole, bringing everyone i hated to it, and pushing them in.

When i was really little , i was creeped out by Brocks memorial monument in Queenston...as it stood on top of the Niagara peninsula, it seems ( by reason of its paralax ) to follow you ( even in the car ) for miles....I used to think he was after me, so, I was scared of him till i was at least 10 #@_@#

i thought if you dug really deep into the ground you would find hell and Satan. i planned on digging a really deep hole, bringing everyone i hated to it, and pushing them in.
My Aunt Helen told me that too. :lol:

When someone told me that if you dug far enough, you'd reach China..I thought that if people in China dug a hole far enough, they'd end up in the US...I used to be worried that Chinese people would pop up out of the ground.

:spit::yippee:

And we could throw everyone's evil computers at them! :bsod:

The only things I can think of are the obvious things like Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny.

Oh yeah, I thought men just grew mustaches too, like some it happened to and some it didnt, and if you got one you couldn't take it away. So I thought men just shaved for fun :lol:

I thought Charlie Brown and Snoopy lived down the street from me when I was three! :rofl:

When i was small, I thought dinosaurs and cavemen lived at the same time in history....Stupid Flintstones!!!!

As a child, I was totally scared out of my wits at the thought of... Bigfoot!!! :eek: I was convinced he lived by the lake by my parent's house and that he would come up and peck on my bedroom window at night... :eek:
