Growing up with many older, cunning siblings, it wasn't uncommon to get scammed out of things on a daily or weekly basis. These scams included, but were not limited to:
1. Being asked to make someone a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, because "I made them the best way", not because they were too lazy to make their own. I was four. How can a four year old's sandwich possibly top a 14 year olds?
2. Being asked for something and being promised $5 in return for said item or service. Later being handed a sheet of paper with $5 written on it and being told "I never said it was gonna be real money!".
3. Being traded my paper money for pennies because "the metal was so much more valuable than the paper".
4. "If you tell Mom you did it, I won't hit you harder."
5. "Micah, you're the youngest, and mom cuts you the most slack. Just tell her you did it so we can all stop standing in the kitchen. She won't get mad at you."
6. "Marta, seriously, tickle my back for a little while! I promise I'll tickle yours after." 10 minutes later, "Marta I'm too tired, I'll do yours tomorrow, promise." Yea right.
