Mom loves you.

well for starters i always believed that they were going to FIND me when we were playing hid and go seek. My brother told me that i was a sleep walker when i was about 8. he said he saw me outside in the middle of the night...what a jerk. I believed him
-
That they were going to tell on me when my parents came home. In reality, I learned they feared me telling on them more.
-
Man, I wish I had siblings...I'd have messed with them so badly. Oh well, I'll just take it out on my own kids. I'll be a great father.
-
Well, I am the oldest, so nobody really messed with my head. I did make my sister believe we were going back to China to meet her real parents; I told her that a long time ago, men had to wear 27 pairs of pants so that if they farted, the women couldn't hear or smell it; I told her that the world had no colour until this one board game (can't remember what it was) was made, and that's why all old pictures and tv shows are in black and white.

when I was 5 and thought pretty much anything was possible my older siblings told me that if I wanted to hard enough and flapped my arms hard enough I could fly like a bird. I guess the cars passing by had a hell of a laugh at my expense because for 30+ minutes there I was standing on the top step of our porch flapping my little arms just as hard as I could.

I was told that drinking shower water is bad for you and that it is different from tap water or something along those lines. I was also told that when you take a shower, the water that goes down the drain comes up in the toilet. I was told a lot of things, and I don't really remember a lot of them off the top of my head.
-
My older brother told me when mom or dad pulls the drain to the bathtub...I'd better get out quick or I'd go down the drain.
-
I never really had a sibling say things to me, but as a young teen, my sister I used to tell my littlest brother and sister that Pumpkinhead (from the horror films) was their mom. And my younger brother, my sister and I used to tell him we found him in a Dorito's bag by a dumpster. I was kindof mean as a kid!!

That if I swallowed a seed of some fruit, a tree would grow inside my belly.

That if I wasn't good the daleks would come and exterminate me in the middle of the night. If I was ever naughty I wouldn't sleep for weeks.

my sister said if I had swallowed the kernel,a new tree would have grown up on my head.And I was very afraid and went around to ask my parents and others about this.haha

Actually, I was the oldest...... But I told my younger sister,who's blond{like my grandmother}, when the rest of us have dark brown hair, that she was left on our doorstep by a band of blond haired Swedish gypsies who were going to come claim her when she turned 13 to sacrifice her to the Gods. She believed me for years.

That our Mom was a Stepford Wife. That was freaky. And I believed it for far too long than I should have.

...that life is sacrifice, that life sucks, and that it is critically important to find the best parking space...

In the 70s, my sister had a cleansing machine to soak her contact lenses in. She told me that if I touched the machine when the red light was on, my hand would turn into a skeleton. I was about 3 or 4.

Like a lot of bros and sisters I was told that i was an orphan. And I believed my sisters for SO LONG. Because I looked so different to them. I had long blonde hair and they had brown hair. I felt realy stupid so i asked if we could do blood test haha.

I didn't have an older sibling-for for years I lived in fear of the dread "permanent record". Now decades later-I found out they were ultimately right!
