That if you press the pelican crossing and don't cross then the police will arrest you. I actually told my kids the same thing thinking it was true.
Think my mum was sick of us pressing the lights every time we walked past. |

The old swallowing one - chewing gum, not cum. As a naughty kid I used to swallow bits of it to test it out. When nothing did, I decided to make my own rules. Maybe it's still all inside me, wrapped around some organ or blocking a digestive channel? |

When my parents were children, their parents never had to lock their doors when they went out.
Partly true - anything good had been nicked because they forgot to lock the door |

When i was about 14 I actually pressed the button and didn't walk across. Went and got in the car round the corner then went to drive past the crossing. The police stopped us and told me off for pressing it. So while I didn't get arrested, I've never done it again  |

Really? Maybe it is actually true then?
I'm a good girl now and always wait for the lights to change.  |

"That eating a lot of one thing will turn you into it.
Eating crusts make your hair curl."
I got hair straighteners for my Christmas one year and was still told to eat my crusts "otherwise how will you know the straighteners work?!"  |

My grandad told us he used to work on a spitfire as a cook in the war. Which we believed until I saw what a spitfire looked like at school a few years later |

In a bid to get me to eat guacamole, my mum used to tell me she could see patterns on my tongue (the american flag, pink stars on a purple background... I was 5). So imagine little Mimieux at a party (aged 9) eating guacamole and sticking my tongue out so everyone could see the patterns...

Why on earth would anyone force a child to eat Guacamole? That is just child cruelty. |

I think society needs to be very careful about what they tell kids.
Especially from a young age.
By saying some of these things they start to understand that contempt exists and that doesn't go anywhere good. |

For a school biology project I had to explain where babies came from. The teacher told us to ask our relatives.
I asked greatgrandma and she said "They are found under a gooseberry bush"
I asked Grandma and she said "A stork delivers them"
I asked mum and she said "You collect them from the hospital"
I wrote in my project "There has been no sexual intercourse in my family for 3 generations...."

ha ha, the rain and ice particles in the clouds bang together and charge the particles. The positive and negative separate and often a spark jumps between the two this causes the air to expand rapidly making the bang. |

Mr was told as a child by many family members he had a chicken leg and he believed it for a long time, even extended family got in and played him haha.
Another was that babies come from eating seeds (taken from my mum eating seeds trying to get pregnant with my youngest sister, I was 5) |

"Elbow grease was something you borrowed from a neighbour ... As I a child I was ask to go ask for some "
That's brought back a great memory: One of us was told to ask the butcher for chicken lips and did just that. Not revealing which one of us did this but it wasn't me.  |

My mum told us as kids (4 of us) she knows when we're lying because our pupils get bigger and we firmly believed it, wasn't till I was in my teens I figured out she knew who was lying because it was the one who wouldn't look at her in case their pupils were big. |

"Santa Claus is real !
What!!!!! Are u saying he isn't real?? Nooooo
I know I thought he worked with the tooth fairy and the Easter bunny?"
Don't!! My sister being the way she is, we were never allowed presents in our room at Christmas, why would you let a strange man in our bedroom?! To this day I've never had a stocking on my bed (well I regularly have two on it now but not filled with presents!) even when she knew the truth  |
