 When I was a kid, I\u2019d often hear my mum screaming \u201cDAAAANNNNIIIEELLLLLEEE\u201d which meant my mum was stuck under a bed, and needed help. She wasn\u2019t physically stuck under a bed. Mum is just claustrophobic. My little sisters would often kick stuff under their beds, then mum would try get it out, midway under the bed she\u2019d have a panic and scream for me. I\u2019d run in, grab her legs and pull her out, we had tiled floors so she slid out easy peasy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
