Are there any lies that your parents told you as a kid that you believed for longer than you'd like to admit?

你小时候，父母有没有告诉过你什么谎言，而你相信了很久，久到你都不想承认？

When I was 6 years old, my mom bought me a goldfish, his name was King. Some weeks after King arrived we decided to give him some friends, so I ended up with an aquarium with ~15 fish.

我六岁的时候，我妈妈给我买了条金鱼，取名叫国王。国王来了几周后，我们决定给他添几个朋友，所以后来我的鱼缸里有差不多15条鱼。

Every month, one or two fish would die and my mom used to replace them with new ones. After 3 years I lost interest on the aquarium, and my mom stopped buying new fish. The only fish remaining was King, he lived for 3 years!

每个月都有一两条鱼死掉，而我妈妈一般都是用新的鱼来替换它们。三年之后我对那个鱼缸没了兴趣，然后我妈妈也没有再买新的鱼了。最后活下来的鱼只有国王，他活了3年！

Five years ago, when I was 18, I was telling to a friend how long my goldfish stayed with us, when my mom interrupted me and told me the truth: "son, your fish didn't live for 3 years, I've replaced him every time he died and you never noticed it".

五年前，那时候我18岁，我告诉一个朋友我的金鱼陪了我们多长时间，这时我妈妈打断了我，告诉我真相：“儿砸，你的鱼没活过三年，每次他一死掉我就换掉他，而你从没发现。”
