“I Didn’t Realize He Was Joking Until I Was Like 14”: 40 Hilarious Cases Of ‘Kid Logic’
Children are creative powerhouses, since they often take in new information daily, without being given any clear explanations about the “why” and “hows” of the world. The result is what some adults deem “kid logic” where they take a shot at working out the mechanics of the universe.
So one netizen asked the internet to share their own examples of bizarre and hilarious things they believed as kids. From the universe being black and white until the 60s, to various theories on how babies are made, people delivered stellar cases of “kid logic.” So get comfortable as you scroll through and be sure to upvote your favorite posts.

Way back in the 70's I thought my Grandpa had a car that told him where to go, like GPS today. As he was driving a green arrow on the dash would start flashing to the right. He would then turn right. Then another arrow flashed to the left. He would turn left. I was totally blown away.
One can’t just blame ignorance and leaps in logic on some of the things we sincerely believed as a child. Many parents (fathers in particular) have a penchant for having a little bit too much fun inventing and spreading disinformation. Or, perhaps equally as common, some parents refuse to reveal that adults don’t actually know everything about the universe and will simply make some facts up.
Regardless, this often leads to some amount of normal “magical thinking,” the process when a person imagines connections between things that are simply not true. As a kid has a lot less information to work with, can happen all the time, i.e. “if it works like that in my family, it must be true everywhere.”

That your blood was a finite amount you had throughout your life and obviously that means old people die when they lose too much of their blood.
I was terrified every time I got a cut or scrape, and as a bonus I was/am still clumsy as all hell.
At 6 I got hit by a car. I was lucky that it was a side street and slower moving cars. I crawled to the curb after, noticing my elbows and knees were busted up and bleeding. I was crying and panicking and trying to cover the bleeding with my shirt when my mom arrived (I was just down the street and a watchful neighbor phoned my mother.). I got carried back home where an ambulance was waiting. I got patched up and the lovely EMT gentleman patching me up let me know that people make their own blood, so my "big boo-boos" weren't as bad as I thought. (BLESS YOU, SIR! Wherever you are now, I thank you. It's been 30 years and I never forgot his kindness and how he humored a small 6yo girl.)

When I saw a character die in a movie I thought the actor sacrificed themselves and died in real life for the sake of the film.
Mohsie Supposie 1 year ago
I thought there were two (or more) of each actor. If one died in a movie, then the other one would continue acting, while the first one was sent to the hospital to get fixed, and then return to acting.
A child has to learn everything for the first time but is often limited to what their physical senses can “detect.” So, as one might notice, the majority of “kid logic” listed here featured the physical appearance of something having an exaggerated effect on it. This often has comical results, where “superpowers” are attributed to items of clothing and, for example, the color of a car.

My grandparents on one side of the family have a house in our state and a cabin in another that we would spend weekends at growing up. For some reason, when I was really little, I didn't really get how that worked. Since you can go to Grandma's house or Grandma's cabin, I just assumed I had two identical grandmas, and one just lived at each house. To make it worse, I understood that I only had the one grandpa and just assumed he was married to two identical grandmas. My family still mentions this in jest occassionally.

My son asked me that question when he was little. "When you were little, was the world in color?"
I was born in 1981.

I genuinely thought you could hear the actual ocean anywhere you wanted by listening to a sea shell.
However, the desire to understand “why and how” tends to only really develop around the age of eight. Once a child starts to get a bit more independent, they might turn away from bombarding their parents with questions and will instead try to “figure it out” themselves. This list has just a few examples of the hilarious logical paths that they take.

My dad had a gay younger brother named Mark, my mother also had a gay younger brother named Mark. When I was 5 years old my dad told me if your name is Mark that means you're gay.... I didn't realize he was joking until I was like 14.

I was absolutely certain that if somebody got a 100-plus year prison sentence, they would leave their drying bones in there until the full sentence was completed.
This is a result of working with bad assumptions. While elements of a kid’s logic may be solid, they tend to often not recognize that just because something is true for them, doesn’t mean it’s universal. You can actually discover a lot about a child’s internal thoughts and family life just by seeing what they assume is the baseline.

I thought putting sticky tape on torn paper would repair it. So like most kids, I was told putting a bandaid on a cut made it better. Which made sense because when you took it off the cut had started healing. Well I figured that sticky tape must do the same thing right? I used to pull tape off of things to check if it was "fixed" yet 🤦🏽♀️

When I was little I thought gunpoint was a street so whenever I saw the news that someone got robbed at gunpoint. I would think to myself why would people go there if they're just going to get robbed?

That's a quote from a first season episode of "Friends", "The One with the Ick Factor".
While many of these ideas fall apart as new evidence is gathered, some bits can remain for an embarrassingly long time, often becoming an inside joke for the entire family. So if you want to keep exploring the hilarious chaos of “kid logic,” look no further, Bored Panda has another article on the best of bizarre ideas children have put together.

I thought that when films had a character as both a child and an adult (flashbacks, time lapse, etc.) that it was the same actor filmed years previously. I thought it must take forever to make a film and that's why they were so expensive.

I thought there was a huge warehouse-like building, with hundreds of big red buttons lined up with one person at each button. During commercial breaks, whoever pressed theirs fastest got to play their commercial next. Sometimes commercials get cut off by another commercial and I thought that was someone pressing their button before it was time. No idea where I got this idea from

When I was in Elementary school we all thought we'd die from getting stuck in quicksand one day or by disappearing into the Bermuda Triangle. It was such this weird bubble of fear that was omnipresent. Now? Literally nobody talks about the BT or seems to care about quicksand. My younger nephews didn't even know what quicksand was and they're almost 12 lol. Yeah I guess it's not quite the same thing as the original question posed but man...as an adult...bills are far more terrifying

I thought when you got to the age where you had to have a job, you got a letter in the mail that told you what your job was.

I thought "Skyscrapers" were airplanes, and not "Tall Buildings" until I was about 10...
Here is how that happened:
I went to the park with my mom as a little kid. The park was located on the outskirts of the big city where some tall buildings could be seen in the distance. "She said look at the sky scrapers, can you see them?"
So, I looked around and saw a plane... It had a white trail behind it... I assumed the plane was "Scraping the sky".

My dad told me “Watch for Falling Rocks” signs were signs to keep a lookout for a lost Indian brave (who’s name was Falling Rocks) who got lost while out hunting to win the hands of the chief’s daughter. Every time we passed one of those signs I’d look all around to see if I saw him.
I was in my teens before I realized that was stupid. 😂

I used to run away from home as a kid quite often to go adventuring. Countless times upon being found or returning after said adventures, my mother would try and remind me if the dangers of me being by myself at such a young age and I wasn't worried because I was convinced Superman would come out of nowhere and save me if anything happened.
Luckily I didn't have to learn the hard way that it simply wasn't true.

Not me, but my son. Big age gap between my 2 kids. My autistic son was going to be of age where he would be starting school. He was nervous about it, so I reminded him that his (much) older sister went to school, and she loved it. He took all this in, and didn't say anything. His older sister was in university, lived in the dorms, and we would pick her up on the weekends. A few months later my son asked me "Will you and dad visit me, like you visit Sissy?" Absolutely broke my heart, he thought we'd be shipping him off to fend for himself in kindergarten. I still tear up when I think about it.

When I was a little kid, directions confused me a lot (I have zero sense of direction, even as an adult now).

I thought that volcanoes were like weather phenomena and could just "erupt" out of the ground at any time.
Reasoning: there's an episode of Spongebob about a volcano in the town, which isn't there in all the other episodes, so I thought they just came and went, but we never got any in where we lived , same way we never got tornadoes.
While watching that episode, a house exploded down the street from my house. so we all ran to the window wondering what that loud sound had been and saw a ball of debris flying through the air.
Having just been watching the Spongebob episode I was convinced a volcano had appeared and erupted down our street.

I was around 7 at that time, recently introduced to Monopoly. I was not 100% sure if it was real money or fake money. It looked different. But what if? There was so much of it!!! Maybe I was actually rich. I was confused and wanted to test it out. I wanted to be sure. But what if it turns out to be fake? I was too embarrassed to ask.
So as usual in those days, my 5-year-old younger brother became the guinea pig. When the ice cream truck rolled around the next day, I pulled off $100 from the fat stack (I was rich), gave it my brother and had him go get a couple of chocolate popsicles, while watching from the sides. That went well. :-)

I took this to mean that he never consumed liquid of any kind, and this rattled around in my head for quite some time.

As a child I was convinced that as an adult I'd be able to travel as a tourist to Mars. For my nephew it was Jupiter. So I suppose it runs in the family.

There was a time I was convinced that my school was spying on me through my bedroom mirror, so I would put a cloth over it whenever I was getting stressed. Idk where I got this idea from, but it gave me so much anxiety.

I contemplated, but not sure if I ever believed, that everything revolved around me - like the Truman show, but before the Truman show existed. I couldn't phathom other people doing things when I wasn't around. Honestly, not that I think it now, but it's still hard for me to phathom that all people are doing something right now. I'll randomly think of like a famous person and imagine that right now they're doing something - like eating, sleeping, anything. On a side note, narcissism runs in my family. Also, I felt vindicated when I watched an episode of Growing Pains as a kid, where Kirk Cameron stayed home from school and was surprised at the thought that Gilligan's Island comes on everyday while he's at school

Back in the 70's, the Lincoln Continental town cars (the Mark IV) had trunk lids with a half-moon shape at the tip. A "faux" spare tire cover that had the word "CONTINENTAL" that followed the shape of the rounded tire "tire cover". I used to think that was a clock that actually told time and whenever we saw one on the road, I'd get excited and yell, " there goes the car with the clock on the back!".

I once heard a family friend say, "I don't drink," when offered an adult beverage. I took this to mean that he never consumed liquid of any kind, and this rattled around in my head for quite some time. I was disabused of this notion when, at a family picnic, Roger poured himself a glass of iced tea, I took it away from him (spilling most of it on him in the process) while yelling, "but Roger, you don't drink!"
