Thunder was god bowling. (or moving furniture)
I was told this too and rain meant God was crying and because I did something wrong.
Also I can remember being told that swallowing watermelon seeds would cause you to grow watermelons in your stomach. And to never swallow gum because it will stay in your body for life.

I used to think the whites lines on the roads were for motorcycles.0

In the winter time there is sometimes lines of snow that blow across of the road. They are called Snow Snakes. I thought they were real snakes and was horrified that all the cars would just drive over them0

Most kids hate vegetables. As a kid I was told I would have to get a vegetable shot if I didn't eat my vegetables. I'm still made over this one.0

I remember thinking that being grounded meant you were bured up to your neck. This was before I was 8 years old. I was pretty scared when my cousin was grounded.
My older sister and I were left in our car while my dad went into an apartment building he managed. She convinced me it was illegal for us to be in the parked car like that so we got out and crossed a busy street and then wandered around a strange building to go find my dad. Because that was so much safer.0 -

I told my 8 year old just last week if she didn't start taking her cold medicine that she was just going to get more sick then I would have to take her to the doctor and the only way they could make her better was to give her lots of shots. I use the shot fear mongering way too much.1 -

There is a shot for everything isn't there?
I remember the picking nose thing too. If you pick your nose your head will cave in.2 -

I remember as a child being afraid that we would get bombed in the middle of the night, an air-raid I guess. Like I'd be sleeping and a bomb would just come through my bedroom roof and kill me. But it's not like that would have even been a reality. To this day I have no idea where that fear came from.
I was also afraid I'd suffocate myself in my sleep if I slept on my stomach. I'm a side sleeper to this day.0 -
