What’s the dumbest thing you thought as a child?

I remember DOING a lot of dumb things when I was a kid, but I don’t really remember anything dumb that I believed as a kid.

There’s a new thread on Reddit about “the dumbest thing you thought as a child”. Stuff like ‘storks bring babies’ or ‘if you swallow bubblegum, it’ll stay in your stomach for 7 years’.

Some of the answers are pretty funny…like “if you drank while peeing, you’ll keep peeing until you stop drinking”…and some are really dumb, like “I used to believe night is brought about by clouds. Dark ones, of course”.
