I know that the expression ‘step on a crack, break your mother’s back’ was made because it rhymes but it sounds a little crazy doesn’t it? I mean stepping on a crack will break my mother’s back? That is probably the last thing that will break my mother’s back. A swing of the baseball bat to the back will break it. Not stepping on a crack. And who, in the right mind, is thinking I better not step on this crack. Don’t wanna hurt mom. Or maybe they are thinking the opposite and are stepping on all the cracks?! Lunatics.
