It's no longer news that our parents/older relatives preyed on our naivety in our childhood.

They will tell us utterly ridiculous lies and stories just to make sure we reluctantly do there biddings. In fact, they will warn of consequences should you not adhere.

Here are some of them:
1. You are sent on an errand, to make sure you go quickly, they'll spit on the ground and tell you that if dry out before you return, so 'll your belly button.
2. You disobey an older relative, to make sure you apologise, they'll tell you that if you don't, a thunder strike will kill you.
But, trust kids of these days, they'll not budge even if you tell them heaven will fall. #sophisticatedgeneration.

That a virgin gave birth. That the bastard died to save me from sins. Such arrant nonsense.
