I thought that if you bought something at a beach you had only to buy it using sand dollars... I believed that up until I went around collecting 37 of them to buy this necklace I really wanted and then my mum explained that's not how it works. I was four. My mum still tells that story and laughs.

I thought that adults could control the traffic lights because they would always count to three and then say go green, and they would always turn green...I learned later that they would watch the other traffic lights from the other side.
