兒時的這些“傻事”，你都做過幾件呢？

1. "When I was 4 I collected dead flies and kept them in a little trinket box when I wasn't playing with them. To make it worse, I named all of the insect corpses after my brother."

我四歲時收集死掉的昆蟲，我不玩時就把這些昆蟲放到一個小瓶兒里。更糟的是，我用我弟弟的名字給這些昆蟲命名。

2. "When I asked my 4-year-old nephew what he wanted for lunch, he said, 'People.' I said that people weren't food and he threw a fit."

我問四歲的侄子午餐想吃什么，他說，“人。”我跟他說人不是食物，他就鬧起脾氣來了。

3."As a kid I hid in a loft thing in my bedroom closet for two hours — and stayed hidden even when my parents opened the door 30 times..."

我小的時候在臥室壁櫥的頂層里藏了兩個小時——即使我的父母開了三十多次壁櫥的門，我還是偷偷地藏在里面。

"They thought I was kidnapped and called the police. I told the police I thought we were playing 'hide and seek' even though I never asked, just hid."

他們認為我遭綁架了還報了警，我跟警察說我以為我們當時在玩“捉迷藏”游戲，雖然我并沒有告訴我的父母我要玩這個游戲，但是自己卻藏了起來。

4. "When my son was 4 years old, he took everything out of my purse, filled it with dog food, then put everything back on top of the dog food..."

我兒子四歲時，他把我錢包里的所有東西都拿了出去，把狗食裝滿錢包后再把原來錢包里的東西放回來跟狗食混在一起......

"I didn't notice until I was going for my wallet in a checkout line. I received so many disgusted looks from the cashier and people in line as I dug through a bag full of dog food like a crazy person. When I asked my son why he did that, he said, 'In case I got hungry.'"

直到我在付款隊伍里拿錢包時我才發(fā)現(xiàn)這件事。我就像一個瘋子一樣從滿是狗食的包里找錢，收銀員和排隊的人都向我投來了鄙視的眼神。我問我兒子為什么那樣做時，他說，“萬一我餓了怎么辦，以防萬一啊。”

5. "My daughter was 2 when I found her in the bathroom covered head-to-toe in Vaseline. Trying to pick her up was like trying to grab a water weenie. It took days to get it all off of her."

我女兒兩歲時，我在浴室里發(fā)現(xiàn)她從頭到腳都是凡士林，努力把她抱起來就像是努力抓住小水流。我用了好幾天的時間才把她身上的凡士林弄干凈。

6."I once found my 3-year-old trying to stuff our cat into the fridge."

有一次我發(fā)現(xiàn)我三歲的女兒想把貓塞進冰箱里、
