I saw my daughter crying one day, and i asked her why. She replied, she doesnt like to go inside the closet, so i thought she was Claustrophobic, and i ask her again why, she said, "coz there are scary little coins near your pants".
I laughed so hard, i thought she was just kidding. The next day, i tried to scare her with some coins in my hand, She cried a bucket, and I was like, wow, this is really serious. So i have to google it and this is what I found.
