When I was in 4th Grade which in my country is 8-10 years old I had 2 friends which I would play with at recess. One day we watched Jurassic World (I am a Youngcel born in 2008, I just turned 18 so I think it was just out, it was Fallen Kingdom IIRC) in class, and a few weeks later when everyone for the most part had forgotten about specific plot points I had remembered I started going around with my 2 friends saying we had "Cloned Dinosaurs". My mother worked at an animal hospital at the time, and sometimes I went to work with her. I stole some lab equipment and stuck it in my backpack and brought it to school the next day to show kids, and some of them actually entertained it for a little bit. (I don't know if any of them were idiotic enough to actually believe in).
It eventually got to the point where I would ask kids to "buy DNA", some of them actually paid me lunch money for this. I would in turn give them a vial I had stolen. One of them ended up showing their parents and they freaked out & contacted my mother. I was yelled at by her for it (she is an alcoholic), but then at some school event where my Dad was at with me I was confronted by a couple of kids about if I had been scammed, so I told them to go ask my Dad if "the dinosaurs" were real, they did and he said yes not understanding the social implications emboldening his ND son would have for the rest of his life.
Eventually I dropped the act when I went into Middle School (at around 10-11), but I was still bullied for this relentlessly. People especially the girls at my school would remind me of it even up into the end of High School. It was like I was somehow inferior even though I was expressing details relating to concepts none of them understand even now that they're in college when I wasn't even a decade old. People finally stopped badgering me about this when I was done with High School partially I think because I only see people from my HS now at work where they feel the need to be professional, but whenever I see my cousins they tell me that their friends still talk badly about me behind my back due to this. We live in a small town so I tend to believe it and make sense.
I cannot stress it enough if you have ND Siblings, you must make sure your parents understand the gravity of the situation, especially if they are in public school. The "innocent" antics which they display now at 8-11 years old will have life long consequences if not stamped out and corrected. The Tribe of Soyciety brutally punishes ANY form of divergance. If you want your children to succeed, you must never enable divergance, this is a self destructive behavior more destructive than prolonged drug use in the long term.
