"Eat your dinner because children in Europe are starving. I alwaya wanted to know how eating my dinner would help that."
My mother: Eat your dinner, children are starving in China.
My brother: Name two.

yenta, my Mother had a variation....it was children in China were starving.
So, I told her.....then SEND IT to them.
I didn't sit for awhile after that.

"We love you and /support/ you no matter what."
That one was recently proven wrong.

Posted: 4/5/05 at 10:55pmYou guys had to clean your plates? I was always told it was important to leave behind at least a bit of food on your plate so the Angels know you are not going hungry. I have NO ides where my parents came up with that one!

If you eat watermelon seeds, a watermelon will grow inside your stomach.
Scared the crap out of me so I never even ate watermelon seeds.

Posted: 4/5/05 at 11:47pmI can't think of anything my parents lied to me about, but I'm enjoying reading about everyone else's dysfunctional families!

Posted: 4/6/05 at 5:08amWhat about secrets your parents withheld from you? Such as how I was conceived in a hotel room on the way back from visiting family in Minnesota. Doesn't sound too terrible until you take into account my two older sisters were asleep in the next bed. I suppose it was more traumatic for them to learn than it was for me though. They do insist on making a big deal about it and we always have to make a stop in Janesville, Wisconsin on our way up to visit them.

Oh Lord...
Hm. Secrets?
I have a half sister from my Dad's second marriage who's last words to my father were two words, consisting of "F and U" - she's also adopted. I want to meet her, but apparently, she wants nothing to do with anything related to my dad...
Talk about weird.

Eating carrots will make me smarter.
Pickled beets and macaroni and cheese is a wonderfully delicious meal.
Smile at the world and the world will smile back.
We'll never lie to you.

Posted: 4/6/05 at 11:56amIf you eat potato chips with green edges you'll get sick. It's funny because to this day, I don't touch them, even though I know it's not true!!

"Pray to God and your problems will be solved."
And a more gross one...
"Sausages are cow genitalia." That one was from my crazy grandmother.
