| Favorite Old Wives Tale??? OK thought this would be fun to see what everyone has to say. Want to know what is your favorite old wives tale that stands out in your mind that Mom or anyone that was older always told you. These are what come to mind so I'll start with Can't cut a babies hair before age of one or it will have speech problems I came out the shower when I was a teenager and my hair was wet, my grandmother asked "don't you have your period" I'm like yeah. She had a face like this "you should never wash your hair when you have your period" huh ok

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Gum takes 7 years to digest. At that rate, I probably would've been MADE of gum by age 10.

LOL, I love that one. My daughter still gets on me about swallowing gum. I'm 35 and nothing's happened yet- I think I'm in the clear.

| Don't Even Let someone sweep under your feet, if you ever want to get married!!! Step on a crack and break your back... If the hem of your skirt or dress is torn or loose, kiss the hem, and you will get a new dress... |

| A cricket in the house is good luck. Don't plant a lemon tree in the front yard - bad luck If you want a boyfriend lift your feet when driving over a rail road track. Never walk under a ladder, it's bad luck.

| A moth in your house means someone is about to die. Whistling at night is bad luck as it summons the evil spirits.

| Don't rock an empty cradle- you'll end up an old maid. A bird in the house means someone's going to die. If your palm itches you will come into mney soon. LOL, this is fun- most of mine come from my late, great grandma- she was a hoot.
