Did you ever get burns on your tiny hands from the family iron? Well, you are not alone. Hear this person’s childhood story: “My mom told me that the iron was really hot. I didn’t believe her, and put it to my hand. Needless to say, I discovered very suddenly and very painfully, that it was INDEED really hot.”

Or did you get the strange urge to throw things to the ground floor?

When I visited my grandparents on the 14th floor of a government quarter in Delhi, I’d was excited because I’d never been to the top of such a tall building. So I threw things from their bedroom (brushes, powders, boxes, clothes, basically all the things that a 5-year-old could carry) down from the fourteenth floor balcony to the ground. Took them a while to realise what had happened. And I’d thrown many things by that point.

Or *Gasp* Slap your Mom?

At 8, I slapped my mom because I was narrating my day at school and that’s how the music teacher had slapped a kid. My mom slapped me back (but obvious). But I couldn’t figure out why ‘cuz the kid never slapped the teacher in return.
