I was slow to mentally mature, so I thought a lot of stupid things. I thought that getting a job would be easy, I thought getting married would be easy. At one point, I believed getting money was as simple as going to the bank for an endless supply of it. XD
When I was young I remember I philosophized about life, and came to the conclusion that I'm the only person living and everyone else were there just to fill in my life. I didn't understand how people could think (too much information for a 7 year old to comprehend)
I also thought I might just be in my own imagination.
I used to think that what if everything that happened in my life was just a dream, and that if I woke up, I would end up being absurdly younger than I was in my dream.
You know those times when you swear someone called your name, but no one is there? I thought (and I still wonder) what if those voices were your loved ones trying to wake you up from a deep coma, but they can't scream quite loud enough to reach you.
When i first started playing video games, I played the Sims. It made me wonder about God: what if he was just playing the sims, and we were his characters? And when we sleep, he's just saving the game.
EDIT: I will be adding more as I think of others.
I used to pronounce porcelain as poor-ceel-ian (I had never seen it written, just heard it)
I used to think when people went to court, they would have a gun-fight with people. Take 10 steps, turn, and shoot. Then my dad was in court once and i was so scared he would die.
To this day, I still believe mannequins walk around at night. They plot to take over the world. Its all my brother's fault... one little joke. Just ONE joke, scared me for years
READ THIS ONE - When I was little, I tried to be in the same room as my parent when I put my shirt on. I thought that when I put my head through the neck ring that everyone on the entire planet would turn into a zombie, which doesn't make sense. If they DID turn into a zombie, I would be in the same room as them. So if I couldn't escape, I would be dead. And thus, I didn't understand logic...
EDIT: I also used to think sarcasm was pronounced "starcasim".
I thought Boys had ''cooties''. If only I knew then..

I thought Women had men's "body parts." I didn't correctly know the female anatomy until i was 10.
That's quite likely one of the most common. You learn from experience, and most of what you've learned by that age is just what your own body looks like.
Due to my sisters taunting, I developed a big fear of garden plants at a very young age. The main two were mushrooms and dandelions. She used to throw them at me, telling me they were monsters, and then denying everything she did to me when confronted by my parents. I've had that phobia ever since, I'm terrified of touching mushrooms or dandelions. Don't know why, just hate them. Thanks sis.
The phobia got worse when my mother cooked us a lasagne with mushrooms in it a few years ago. I washed out my mouth that entire night. I wonder if I'll ever overcome my fear.
That reminds me... my girlfriend told me that when she was little, she used to think eating seeds (i.e. watermelon seed) would make a watermelon grow inside your stomach.

And that's what "pregnancy" really is.
I used to think eating the seeds in green beans was better because then green beans would grow inside your stomach. Turns out it was just an excuse I told my parents so I didn't have to eat them.

Have you told your doctor about these?
You should.

I used to think that sex was swearing at each other. I was extremely stupid as a little kid.

We do. It's the truth

The Lochness monster was going to come out of my toilet when I flushed it, so I'd always flush and run out.
Bigfoot lived near us and would hide in my shower, I would always push the certain back fast when I would go to the bathroom.
