Lol… like it! First thing that springs to mind…. Science - reproduction. ‘If you don’t use contraception, you WILL get pregnant!’
It wasn’t until many years later, when thinking about trying for a baby, that I realised it’s not as black and white as that!

Eat your crusts and your hair will go curly. My best friend had curly hair and hated it so wouldn't eat them and I would have loved it so ate hers too

We had a house fire when I was about 6 or 7 and the firemen had to let our budgie Peter fly off.
One day in my 30s I said to my mum - I wonder where Peter went and if he possibly flew off to Spain or Hawaii ?
She said he died in the fire the smoke got him.
OMG gutted - all them years I believed he just flew off to live his best life in the sun !!

When my hamster died my parents told me they’d let her go in the field across from my grandmas house to be with her friends. I believed it and whenever I went to her house I’d go up to the field to look for her.
My cousin was told that her poorly pet rabbit had "gone to live on a farm to recover". She was an adult before she realised that he'd been taken to the vet, which was his final resting place! 
“Your eyes are bigger than your belly!” if I didn’t clear my plate. Had a mortal fear of frogs ever since.

My Mum told me that pancakes were illegal any other day but pancake day

Also that the police could tell you off if you threw sand at the beach

I think it’s that it could be distracting to other vehicles but I don’t think there’s any law against it.
Just tell me the truth, I promise I won't be annoyed.

You can't go upstairs on the bus because it costs more.
When I was a kid we drove down to Cornwall a lot to see grandparents, every so often there would be a really bad smell which my dad attributed to "driving past a farm". I'm ashamed to admit that it's only in the last few years of driving down there myself I've realised that farms don't really smell that bad when you drive past and the smell was obviously coming from him. 
I'm in my 40s lol.
I'm in my 40s lol.Our rabbit “escaped” now you’re making me wonder if that’s actually true!
More a lie of omission. I was good friends with my neighbour as a child - her mum and dad split up while we lived next door. Then her mums (female) friend moved in. My parents just referred to them (not real names) as "Martha and her friend Sally" - this went on for years. I mentioned a few times what good friends they must be to live together like that. "Yep" my mum and dad said.
They were lesbians.
Same thing with my great auntie who died single in her 90s, never had a husband but had a friend who she went everywhere with up until the friend passed away in her 70s.
Also lesbians.
My family are quite homophobic so referring to people as gay out loud was seen as terrible.
