Not my belief - My 5 year found a rock that he believes was a duck egg and that if he took care of it a baby duck would hatch from it. Well me not knowing that he thought that when he showed me his "duck" egg I said thats not a duck egg. Hearing my wifes immediate intake of breath, I shut up quickly. As I watched the tears welling up in his little brown eyes I quickly told him it was a small dragon egg much like the big one on the movie "Eragon". The happiness that came to his little face was very much worth it. I did tell him he had to prove to the little dragon that he dserved him and had to be good and take care of the egg. He skipped off with his dragon egg and put in the dvd, Eragon and talked to his dragon of why it should hatch right away. My wife asked me what was I going to tell him when his dragon did not hatch. I told her the dragon theory was way better than the duck theory. Plus it will give him a little responsiblity. Now I can tell her he will have a story to post here. :-)

I used to believe my dad was the king of something (i dont know what) and of course me&mom were princess&queen. I assumed we were trying to be nice to the common people by gracing them with our presence so we didn't live in a castle like the other stuck up royals.

When I was little, I learned that God was always with you. So then I figured, if God is always with you, everyone who ever died is with you. So I would be afraid to get undressed because I thought that two boys my age were always laughing at my underwear.

i used to belive that all children were adopted since i was told i was adopted by my parents but no one explained what that meant. too nervous to ask my parents, i questioned the adoption thing with a friend at around 6 years old, she non-challantly said, well everyone is adopted not just you. your parents have to go to the hospital to get you and then they have to adopt you. wasn't til i was 17 that i learned i was in fact adopted although i'd realized long before, that other people just weren't.

I used to think that my family were the only people who wore underwear. There was no reasoning behind this - I just assumed it was true.

I'm 12 years old right now(10 days until I'm 13) but when i was little i used to like the gargoyles cartoon. one day for some reason i started to believe that this entire life is a dream and that i will wake up in a futuristic world where everyone is a gargoyle and then when i go back to sleep again in that world i would have to go through another life and so on and so on...

When I was in 1st grade- 3rd grade I used to belive that there was another world inside my desk; like the erasers were cars and the pencils were people and that my pencil case was a mall and so on. So whenever I cleaned my desk I'd make sure there was enough room for my pencil's to drive the erasers around my desk. I thought that I was their god and that Earth was also some kids desk to, so I was always nervous when getting dressed and stuff. I don't know how I came up with this

I have been reading the Harry Potter books for a long time. I was convinced that on my 11 birthday, i would get a letter from Hogwarts telling me to come there, and then i would go there when school started again. I beleive this up until I was in 6th grade... I was truly broken hearted when no letter came in time for me to start the new school year at Hogwarts

when i was in kindergarden i had a friend who told me that all girls should like boys that i should have a crush on someone.of course this was back when boys where icky so i thought i was wierd. so when she asked if i had a crush, i said the frist boy i thought of. and she told him, so i thought that means i needed to like another boy. i told her someone else and (of course) she told him. this went on til i had named every boy in our class.

When i was a child i thought everytime i did something that i wasnt supposed to be doing it would come up on my moms camera and when she developed the pictures it would have a picture of me doing that specific thing i wasnt supposed to be doing and i would get in HUGE trouble.

good thing i know now that someone actually has to TAKE the picture.

When I was young, my sister "tootie" told me that I came from a Doody-bird. She claimed that a Doody-bird flew over the house and pooped on a rock, that poop on a rock became me and my parents scooped me up and let me live with them. I went to school and told everyone, oddly I thought that this made me somewhat "cool"...Then of course my second grade teacher Mrs. Hasper told my mom that I would never add up to anything because I told stories and lied all the time."

When I was younger I believed that my whole life was a dream and that some day I was going to wake up as a baby.

I also used to think that humans were part of giants doll houses and that the giant kids controled every thing everyone did.

When I was in Kindergarten, we had naptime every day. well, I believed that i could secretly send messages in my mind to other people in my class. Like, in my head, i would say hi to my best friend. At first I was mad that nobody ever replied to me, but then I realized that they just must be asleep. It amazed me how people can fall asleep so fast!

I used to (and kind of still do) believe that the entire universe is just the imagination of a little kid in some other place- if that makes any sense.
She'd imagine everything about our world, and she wished and convinced herself so hard, that she actually started believing that we're really here- and we're all just a part of her mind.
Another theory I had, was that all my years in life is just a dream, and when I wake up after I die, I'll be in some sort of "simulation game of life in the past" kind of thing, and it'd be sometime in the future.
...
I don't know if i made any sense just now.

I was convinced that children weren't humans, only adults were, children were a total different race!
