Things would get better

That the Pledge of Allegiance, and the country for which it stood, was worth anything.
Raikupath
That's pure propaganda and indoctrination for anyone outside of that shithole. I'm kinda happy that we finally reached the time in which more and more people in the US are starting to realise how dystopian it really is.
HelpfulCorn
The system of checks and balances worked
Toodamagedtocare
That I would go to hell when I die because I refused to conform !! Hell, is right here on earth.
NotTinyPancakes
Those saying it made Earth hell instead
Whatdoyousaytoanicecupoftea
When the ice cream van played music it had run out of stock.... the mental scars are real
LiterallyAWizard
That Nazism was a thing of the past.
d3jake
I was one of the odd kids that could never nap. I'd basically lie there for the duration and wait for nap time to be done in kindergarten
EvilOne666
Back in kindergarten I used to run laps during nap time. Apparently the teacher wasn't a fan of that
Kbantar
Just lying there in the dark. I was so happy when preschool teachers let me stay up and hang out with them.
jcole01
Same. Wasn't till my late 20s that I was finally able to nap.
Arcygenical
The Japanese logo on the top of the kikkoman soy sauce bottle meant "poison."
IlluminaBlade
It kind of does, there's a lethal dose of salt in a bottle of soy sauce.
goodguyC
That I'd get married, and have a traditional family.
gregCheesegamer
That my parents gave a shit about me.
PeanutHamper
:(
NotTinyPancakes
Oh aye thought my dad cared too until he said one day "I don't care what happens to you I don't care about you" words stick.
OhIfIMust
Le grand ouf…
Kbantar
That most people were kind.
DasBeaker
My brother convinced me I was named after a nazi from a movie because I was a bad baby and if I asked my parents about it I’d get in trouble. I believed that for years until I leaned all my names are grace names from family members.
NotTinyPancakes
My siblings had my convinced my name meant cow
UsedCarSalesChick
That I could get pregnant from a public toilet seat. (40 years later my ass still hasn’t touched one without a “seat gasket” of sorts, but I digress…)
MrHappySmiles
We actually wanted to become adults sooner.. like asap..
Mikeythefireman
That most people are good.
tsterling00
That someday I would grow up and be able to do whatever I wanted to.
SPQAAE
That working hard would make your employer reward you.
unluckyandbored
That I'd be happy.
LadyRex
They used death row inmates to test roller coasters.
MmmmmSoup
That when I got older I would function properly i have adhd ill never function
Flexiblewarmth
Raisins grow on a raisin bush.
ViolentlyJaded
That adults knew what they were doing.
StevieTheAussie
Nobody really does. :/ Was really hoping there’d be some period where I had shit worked out.
IgnisInvictus
^ This.
HeywouldJablowme
Took the words out of my mouth. I used to believe that adults were in charge and knew what they were doing. And I grew up and realized it's just pure chaos barely contained and a bunch of rats fighting over the same piece of cheese.
OhIfIMust
Such a disappointment…
camn333
Dude, I'm trying my best.
OobedoobScoobyDoobyBenubi
There are two things we don’t like as children we grow to like as adults: naps and spankings
Kbantar
I don't think S&M are anywhere near universal kinks.
euphoricopportunity
I never napped when made to nap, I would just be quiet for a bit and pretend to sleep.... but I don't recall it ever being used as ap punishment.
BeverlyHillsBillie
That being an adult would be so much better.
JerzeeTomato
It is definitely harder, but waaaay better than being a kid. Autonomy and agency are awesome things. Also, I get to do rad shit with my own kids!
GiantFlyingLabia
When you’re a kid, you can’t do some things you want to do. When you become an adult, and you can do those things, you no longer want to. But now you must do many things you don’t want to do.
astrangehop
You do have the option of altering things to fit you better. This doesn't always work, but I remember being a kid and wishing I could eat more pickles, or take baths in the morning or whatever and being rebuffed.
RogueAndPeasantSlave
Having 8 younger siblings and now moved out with a wife and two rescue pets, I'm alright with adulthood
Circe007
I thought adults had sex...
KatInTheCorner
That there was a correct path for life that guaranteed success and happiness. Honestly, getting rid of that delusion is the thing that brought me the most happiness.
Gindipple
Pluto was a planet
SubtleNonExistence
Leonon
It was, but as we learned more about our stellar neighborhood it turned out we needed to either narrow our definition of "planet" or start teaching kids about dozens of the things.
NotTinyPancakes
Pluto deserves better than it gets nowadays
Leetcheeks
My kid literally just told me yesterday "You're an adult, you know everything." and one part of me was like "Fuck, i can't let them find out the truth" and the other part of me was like "let's burn this idea they have of adults to the ground."
NotTinyPancakes
I get hit with the "you're only 31 you're not an adult" line from the kid in my household
Vebrandsson
Which way did you go?
Leetcheeks
I remembered the answer as best i could lol.
loma45
"I do, but other adults don't"
SneezeFarts
That America was the greatest country on earth.
NotTinyPancakes
Non american here, I believed it was the dreaming location always wanted to visit someday it's not living up to that dream right now
Raikupath
When I was younger I thought Hollywood was a great place to reach my dream of becoming a movie director. Once I got old enough and learned more about the politics and the people in that country I started to realise that I don't even want to go on vacation in that shit hole of a country.
burrelstrnf
Brutal. So true.
Circe007
The hardest awakening
haggerton
My uncle still believes that at age 60. He's a university lecturer. 💀
Raikupath
Says a lot about the education you get in the US.
