15 Adults Dished on the Childhood Mysteries They Only Managed to Solve Years Later
When we’re children, we are full of innocence and see the world in a very different way than adults do. Sometimes we can’t understand how serious some of the issues our parents are talking about are. And because parents are aware of this, they might tell us little white lies so that we do the things they want us to do. For example, they’ll say things a certain way in order to get us to eat our veggies and not just skip right to dessert.
