childhood

You may be the one who called the teacher mom, but at least you're not the one who tried to Falcon Punch a big kid. Or maybe you were. Either way, we don't know how these people live with themselves.

Here are some relatable stories that'll make you go "man, that's bullshit." Also, it turns out there are still a lot of people who are really not over things that happened to them as children. 

Who knew a story about having to poop at your friend's funeral could be this touching?

This hit me harder than it should have.

This might bring back memories of the time in 2nd grade when you had to miss recess because Dylan falsely accused you of calling him a butt.

It's true though. Dylan was a butt. Still is.

These people peeled back the veneer of nostalgia and really looked at what sucked about the times they grew up in.

You might find that you yourself believed some of these dumb things for a while, or even to this day. But hopefully not the bear one. The bear one is just plain dumb.

Being a younger sibling is not all roses. It comes with wearing old clothes, losing at every game you play, and sometimes being told you're colorblind and adopted.

We've all done dumb stuff. Let's start out by not denying it. We were all curious children once, and for most kids, the only way to learn about something is to do it, not to be told. You won't know the meaning of hot until you put your hand into the fire. That kind of thing. When you have a whole world to learn and make up your mind about, you're bound to make some stupid decisions. And hopefully you learnt from them! Here are 21 stories of some very dumb things these Redditors did in their youthful days, and boy are they hilarious. 

I get it, your house is your own private space and whatever rules you believe in apply inside. Sure, that's reasonable. Don't like me to swear inside your house? I won't. Don't want me to wear shoes inside your house? I'll leave them outside. But some of the things in these stories from Redditors are way beyond reasonable requests. I get that it's your house and children can be messy sometimes but... whoa. Take a chill pill and relax. Read on for some extremely weird and hilarious house rules some poor kids had to live with. 

For the most part, these folks admit that they didn't have much reason to do what they did other than jealousy or unawareness. Some others were put in a situation where there were very few ways to get out with grace. Either way, they make for a decent story.

Oh, if these scars could talk. They would say "God I am dumb. Why did I think I could make it over that car on a razor scooter." Here's what people had to say about their idiotic injuries.

Does anyone want to remember anything they said or did at the ripe age of fourteen? Well these people from Reddit do. Revel in their Myspace-having, poetry-writing, angst-feeling glory. You might just be reminded of yourself.

These people's childhood moments are legit terrifying. Props they were able to move past them and live their lives.

@JenAshleyWright asked people about their weirdest childhood misunderstandings.

There comes a time in our lives when we look back and... wait no let's never look back.
