I remember my grandmother would tell us kids when we misbehaved that she would, and I quote, 'take us out to the barn and skin us alive!' Imagine how many trigger sessions of therapy that would take if the new gens of today heard this.

it’s easy to imagine how many - how many did it take YOU to recover?

As a kid, I always assumed if someone fell down the stairs--they died. It just appeared that way often enough in tv and movies.

See, you validated my point.

generation is irrelevant, this is bad behavior across the board. your recovery from grandma hopefully informed your choices with your own.

To be fair falling down the stairs could very easily kill you if you land wrong.

I was told swimming after eating caused stomach cramps. Sucks that OP was lied to.
There were a lot of other things I was told would kill me as a kid, but they were all lethal things like farm equipment, cars, and guns. Don't need fearmongering when there are actual things to fear!

In secondary school, we always had the rumour that if you blew into a woman's vagina then it would kill her.
It was received with more hilarity than sensibility... though it did mean that future oral sex was delivered with a little less exhalation.
Then, it turns out you can kill a girl by blowing into her minge and middle age dudes creased with laughter again, as if the previous 20 years of maturity never happened.

As a kid I would have been fine falling down staris.
Now, overweight and in my 40s I get it. I slipped on porch steps last year and went down 3 steps and I had to go to the ER and was basically bedridden for a week.

If you didn't know what my point was, how can then formulate your own point from it? So confusing.

️I don't think growing up to be OK with threats of horrific violence against children is healthy. Like... at all... like that's some serial killer shit.

I mean, any vigorous activity directly after eating can cause a stomachache. I don't know why swimming was the sole focus but a general caution to digest a bit before activity isn't bad advice.

That one is way more true than "if you swim after you eat you will die". And even the swimming one is way more true than the interpretation that most people had that if you just enter the water, you will die.

Maybe the lethal logic goes cramp = can't swim = drowning? Not true, but that is my best guess.
Yeah, waiting a short bit after eating is a good idea in general.

Try being raised in a narcissist Christian household with clearly sensitive parents seething at every opportunity to lob shame and judgment on ANYONE else to distract from the fucking evil stain on life which they themselves are. Couple it with some financial success in their lives so they extra feel like they don't need to answer to anyone else for fucking anything.

For sure!! I just assumed every instance had to end in death for some reason. I just remember eventually seeing someone on tv not die after falling down stairs and i was stunned, lol.

Because it's misinfo to reduce people bringing food to the pool. Same with the pee indicator thing... Someone must've been on a crusade
But the cramps thing just isn't true. Light exercise like a walk or casually swimming is great

It's a rule created by adults who got tired of kids stuffing themselves with food and then jumping in the pool and throwing up. It has nothing to do with cramps, and everything to do with making a child wait a few minutes after eating because kids have zero self-control.
