Kids’ logic is a thing of envy. The way they think isn’t bound to some particular reality or concept of reasoning that dictates the rules for the conclusions they have to reach. It’s beautiful because they have unrestricted freedom to be as silly and as adorable as they want without sweating or even understanding it.

Twitter user @sumerianbby shared a story of how she, being a mere 6-year-old, misunderstood the notion of an expiration date on her father’s ID and started crying—she thought it was a particular time for when dad was going to pass away. Kids.

Soon a slew of people joined the conversation, sharing their own stories of how they confused simple concepts and reinterpreted them the way their x-year-old kiddy selves could—using adorable kids’ logic.

    This wouldn't be the scariest thing of the movie! Imagine if they really had to send him in the jungle until someone gets on dice 5 or 8?

    It's not advised to do that! It's better to explain and reassure the child that you are coming back to get it!

    Played Jud Fry in the musical "Oklahoma!" once and my four-year-old daughter came running up to me bawling at the end of the show because she thought that she had just watched me die.

    I thought they'd give death row inmates an opportunity to die on camera. That was the only scenario that made sense to me.

    Macaulay Culkin had to make personal appearances after "My Girl" came out, because sooo many children thought that he had died. He had to do an "I'm Alive MFs" tour. 😂

    My mom used to rent out rooms, and there was an older tenant who thought the same thing. When a show would come on with the actor, he'd get real confused and exclaim, "that man died last week! and just sit there shaking his head in disbelief. Mom never corrected him.

    I remember watching a movie and someone got shot. And I said something about it being fake. And someone else (an adult) told me it was real. I remember thinking it was the stupidest thing to risk your life like that.

    In North Europe all tv shows and movies are dubbed! I found it so strange that i was wondering if people there know the real voices of the actors (edit: i rephrase that in some countries of North and central Europe I've seen this phenomenon.. haven't been to every country in Europe ok)

    until around last year, my kids thought they controlled the back wiper on our car with their voices. if it started raining while we were driving somewhere they'd say "back wiper, wipe one time" and it would! "back wiper, wipe 2 times", and it would! it wasn't until pretty recently that they figured out the wiping mechanism is right at my fingertips, LOL. the way they figured it out was one would say it and turn their heads to make sure it happened, while the other would stare at my hands to see if i did something to trigger the wiper. :-D
