Things you did when you were little

[gailc]

My sister and I would run away from the babysitter. One of the ones mom and dad regularly used. We would be across the road hiding by the river watching her look for us!!
The best was when I was 15 and babysitting for this family that had 4 holy terrors for kids (they emptied a quart jar of pickles down the toilet and "tried" to flush it down!!) I had to walk the youngest to a birthday party but the oldest suggested I take their parents car-well I only had my temps but yes Idid it anyway-we then stopped by the local man-made lake to see what the water was like and when we all got home well their parents were there!!
I never babysat them again. (which was ok by me!!)

I used to babysit a kid who was really into playing pretend. One time he kept saying, bugs, bugs everywhere., I'm going to feed them blood. He proceeded to dump a glass of water over his head. After that he sorta came back to reality.

I also caught him taking a hose and running it into the basement. Caught him before he turned the water on!

I was an awful child...I had friends that were bad influences when I was young...We did everything from egging peoples houses and cars, whipping crabapples at windows, setting newspapers boxes on fire...

I really am a normal person now..but man, I was a devil child in my pre teen years

I used to set stuff on fire a lot. One thing I set on fire was a yellow hippopatamus puppet nemed Fred.

I once stripped all the bark off a tree in front of our house as high up as I could reach (before I knew better).

Twice I fell out of trees, both times I was not seriously injured, just a few scratches and bruises. One tree was as tall as our 3 story house. (We had a story-high attic)

Once I climbed a tree and was too scared to climb back down so I spent a long time yelling for help, and finally a neighbor heard me and came over and helped me down...

I almost choked to death on a piece of hard butterscotch candy. (It melted in time)

Once I played with the damper on the fireplace and closed it and the house filled with smoke.

I got bit in the butt twice by my neighbor's Lab, once while walking on OUR property, and once riding my bike in the street. He just ran over, bit me and ran away! Jerk!

In kindergarten, a boy wouldn't let me paint on his picture so I took a paint roller and painted the whole side of his face white!

I used to do the same thing! In fact, I'm 26 years old now and still doing it!
I also used to buy cookie dough and hide behind my dad's workshop to eat it
