What was the dumbest thing you believed or did as a kid?


Considering everybody had more money than the 0.00 EUR me, I attempted to replicate the others (doing, what they did, being like them), hoping I'd magically have money too to get/do things, that the others had.
That didn't last for too long. Eventually I made my own money and I exponentially became more and more myself over time and more disgusted at the others I was trying to replicate. Kind of also the reason I have few friends 😅
Fortunately I have no residue from that other than just this memory.
-planting skittles in the ground hoping to create a rainbow 🌈
-grabbing lots of flowers 🌸 and twigs. Mixing it in a bucket of water to create medicine
-using a umbrella β or grocery plastic bag and jumping off a roof. Thinking I would parachute 🪂
-using fake currency money 💵 to try to swindle the ice cream man to get free ice cream
-dropping pennies in the soda machine to get soda
-collecting rocks 🪨 and broken glass. That I would try to sell them to the neighborhood kids. Calling them crystals. 💎
-took a road trip up to Colorado and passed through Albuquerque. That I got so excited and I thought I would see bugs bunny or willie coyote.
-if I wore lipstick 💄 I thought I turned into a princess
I believed (when I was seven) that only about 10% of the total human population ever fell in love, and that they only did so once. I based this belief upon the fact that all the teachers at my school were single, as were the characters I saw on TV.
Probably in the early `70's when all those Paul is dead, rumours were floating around. For some reason, I got it in my head that, if I didn't RUSH up the stairs to my room on the third floor, Paul was gonna come out of my parents' room with a huge knife and try to kill me!! Somehow, I'd be safe if I could make it to the landing 3/4 of the way up.

I thought that Santa Claus gave the best presents to the kids that were the best behaved. Eventually I figured out that it was the kids that had rich parents that got the best stuff. They were usually not very well behaved.
i drew all over a wall to make it prettier, i thought my parents would be super happy. went to get my mom i think and i was like mommy look what i did and showed her the wall super proud and everything, ofcourse she freaked out lol
My mom told me that when 3 maybe 4 that I sat on the floor of the kitchen with a big bowl, whipped cream, and strawberries and I told her I was trying to make a strawberry cake
I wet diapers and when they were full I'd pop them against the ground and there was wet puffy shit everywhere
I wouldnβt consider it βdumbβ, just uninformed. Anyway, I thought when you went to sleep, everything in your body βwent to sleepβ, too. 😂
Santa Claus and that tattoos were the mark of the beast from Revelation.
I thought Santa Clause was real all the way to the 9th grade. 😞.
I believed that I'd be able to be free and happy once school was finally finished
Not kicking my dad's cousins ass. He and his wife molested me.
That my hair blowing back meant that I was going fast (I came last in the race).
