So what kinds of things might you notice with your child’s behavior or body as a shift takes place in his/her pyschic or intuitive awareness?
With my son Caden, the early signs were in how he would handle situations that upset him. In school he was really great about keeping his composure when things around him were affecting his energy, but once at home he would release his pent up emotions. We worked on the technique of continually surrounding himself with his bubble, but being an empath, the feelings of others would deeply affect his being.
Things that showed up physically were:
- increased fatigue;
- upset stomach which often resulted in diarrhea;
- and sometimes a fever.
The onset of these things was sudden and gone almost as quickly. Emotionally, he would have meltdowns over small issues as a result of holding in the feelings he felt about the things happening around him. The way it was communicated was an entirely new experience for me in parenting a sensitive child.
When Caden would spiral into an emotional outburst, it would take a few minutes to calm him down and ground him. Once we were in a focused space, I would start asking him questions about what caused him to become upset. He would often tell a story as if what happened had happened to him. My intuition would always lead me to asking if it really happened to him or someone in his class (or a friend on the playground). This was always the magic question that would lead to what happened and to whom. What I came to understand was Caden’s empathic nature actually absorbed the energy of the situation and he felt the experience as if it had actually happened to him. This can be overwhelming for these highly intuitive children and great measures need to be taken to move the energy from their body or the physical manifestation of these emotions can become a greater health issue.
If you have an empathic child and would like to share your story or need some advice about how to handle or manage your child’s energy, contact me through this post!

I was wondering if you could help me with my question: Is my child really psychic or is everything that happend just a coincidence? My daughter Danelle turns 4 next month. Since the age of 4 weeks i noticed something about her. I would be in a room with her, and the next thing she would look up as if she is looking at someone familliar and she would get all exited and look happy. That happend a few times. After that nothing happend untill just before her 2nd birthday. She saw that “person” again and laughed telling me “he” is funny. I asked her what she was looking at, and she replied by saying it is a man. She saw “him” a few more times after that, but was never scared at his pressence. Then one day just after she tuned 2, i woke up one day looking for my cat. I found him in a room in our house, but he looked almost dead. He was very sick. My husband and daughter was still asleep. I tried everything to make my cat feel better but he didnt look very well. Then all of a sudden i heard my daugher in her room with her door closed. She woke up, and the first words out of her mouth was ” Bye bye Neels” My cat’s name is neels. She kept saying the words over and over. When i opend her door she told me that neels is “going bye bye” meaning he is going to die. I woke up my husband and told him about the cat, and he took the cat to the vet, and the next day he died. I was just wondering how did she now that, even before she knew the cat was sick. was It just a coincidence? A few months has passed and 2 weeks before she turned 3, my daughter and i was sitting on the couch watching TV, when out of the blue she looked outside the window up to she sky, and said that “the people up there is going to take maxi away” ( maxi was our 4 month old dog) I told her that maxi isn’t going anywhere he is happy and healty and that he is going to stay with us for a long time. The dog was running around and playing. She argued and said no, the people up in the sky is going to take maxi away. I just left the conversation there. That night the dog suddenly got sick and the next day he died. After that i told my husband about what my daughter said. Now i’m wondering is it still a coincidence? I’m not so sure anymore. A week ago on our way home from school, we were in the car, and again out of the blue she told me that daddy, mommy and herself is going to fly in an aeroplane high in the sky and it going to fall and crach and we are all going to die. Now i dont want to believe all of this anymore. I tought it was kind of cool that my daughter can sense things and predicted two deaths, but now that she told me about the plane crash, i got scared. Hopefully the place prediction was just something she heard about at school that day. What do you think. Is this normal for a child or may there be something different about her?
Hi Leana,
I can tell you that I personally do not believe in coincidence, and your daughter’s track record has shown that she is connected through feeling and seeing (in her way) to her “person” on the other side. In that I trust she is intuitive or psychic. My grandson who is 20 months old was nursing late one night, and my daughter said, “he quit nursing, looked up at the ceiling, smiled, laughed and jabbered consistently for several minutes to whatever he saw at the ceiling, and then went back to nursing and fell asleep.” So your daughter’s experiences in this regard are normal for your child, an intuitive one.
You ask, “How does she know?” Believe it or not, neuroscience does have an explanation of how intuitive intelligence works in psychic children. I explain it in Raising Intuitive Children, our book to be released next spring. If you want a copy, watch for our announcement here. So, intuition is real and a child, unencumbered by the rest of social programming, probably demonstrates most freely, as your daughter shows you.
So whether to believe the airplane prediction? I have followed my intuition most of my adult life. In the early 1980s, the company I worked for was sending me to Florida on a project. I didn’t feel well and left early to drive the hour home. The company was okay with that and assigned someone else to the job. By the time I got home, I barely made it to bed. I turned on the television to see that an airplane had crashed into the 14th street bridge in Washington DC and all 300 people were killed. I was supposed to be on the flight. As soon as I saw the crash, all of my symptoms cleared up.
Last July, I was going to flying to San Diego to visit my son-in-law, daughter and grandson. I started feeling not well that morning. I packed anyway, got in the car, and my husband was driving. Five minutes from the house, my body went into spasms and said I asked Tom to turn around. My body did not want to fly that day. No plane crashed, and I don’t know if I would have crashed had I flown. Yet, my symptoms cleared up that day. I trust my basic human instinct for survival to tell me these things. I have flown since, and trust completely that I am safe.
My story is not a singular event. I have heard similar stories from many others. Only you can choose whether or not to listen to your daughter, but I do know her feeling is in the moment and the opportunity for a plane crash is not a long term prediction, but a single event with a probability factor. Perhaps last July, my probability of crashing was low, but I wasn’t ready to go yet.
So how do you interpret your daughter’s remarks. You have to check within yourself. Put your hand on your abdomen. Close your eyes, center yourself, and ask your body, “Is what my daughter said true?” You’ll receive an answer yes or no through your inner voice, a gut level feeling, or a flash of knowing. Please try it and let us know your answer?

My son has always been very sensitive. There have been a few instances in which he has repeated conversations his father and I have had while in a different physical location. He has told me things he couldn’t possibly know (couldn’t have overheard.) He sees angels and can describe them to me; he sees his great aunt who passed when he was 4 on a pretty regular basis and she talks to him (he is 10.) He complains that he is awakened at night by “visitations” and he doesn’t sleep very well. He sees and hears things, but he doesn’t understand what they are saying. I try to ease his fear, but I know it would scare me if I witnessed these things. I have to lie down with him at night until he goes to sleep; I never had to when he was a toddler. It has been bad for the last year. He wakes me up at least 2 or 3 times a night, sometimes every hour. Do you have any suggestions for us? I don’t want him to deny his gift, but we both need sleep.
Anne,
I can speak from my own experience having been woken up several times at night and I can relate whole heartedly to the lack of rest (having three kids to take care of all day). My best suggestion is for your son to ask the spirits (whether the aunt or angels) if they could stop waking him up so frequently. In all truthfulness, they respect our human experience greatly and will honor what your son says to them, but if he doesn’t come right out and ask for them to stop, they don’t necessarily know he wants them to stop waking him up. As silly as it sounds, it could be that easy. They typically come to us from 3 am on (the spiritual hour) b/c we are at the most peace and they can interact with us much more easily.
Angels typically respond immediately, but if any other beings persist, he can respond firmly by saying- “stop waking me up at night, I need my rest. I appreciate our communication, but I have to function each day on a restful night sleep.” Or a variation there of.
Let us know how it works!
my son was in a werck on april the 3rd 2008 and he was through ou of his car seat and hit his head but that is not what he says he saysthat his grandfather who passed when my husband was three took him out and held him in the floor borad so he would not fly out the window and now he claims there is a father and son who comes to see him at night says the son is mean to him becuse his father was mean to him he also has claim to see a women walking outside our home and has sen a family whos legs were cut off and as for the father and son he says the son face is cut up and that the fathers friends did it i he has gone into detail about these people and has see them regurly i do not know if my son is making these things up or if this is real how do i tell ? what do i do ?

p.s. he is only 4
Hi Jamaica,
This is a very interesting. Thank you for your question. When I was seven, I flew off of my bicycle when I hit a tree, landed on the earth with a thud which knocked the breath out of me. I flew up ti the sky, saw myself and then landed with a thud back in my body. This incident opened some sort of doorway that I could see things thereafter and forgot about it as I grew up. I don’t believe that your son is making it up. For him, it is very real, and you haven’t provided any “reason” like divorce etc for him to develop the behavior. I am not a neurologist or doctor, but in my research as a health psychologist and in the book, Help Kids Cope with Stress and Trauma, anyone experiencing trauma an have an experience of dissociation, which means to be in another reality of sorts. This dissociation can happen from head injury or traumas of any kind.
I believe the story of his grandfather as it is a familiar scenario like others who see angels during accidents. and the rest of the events may not require any action on your part except to listen, acknowledge, and help him feel as safe as possible. I am hoping that you had him checked for a concussion and he did not have one. The next step would be to support him through not reacting negatively, act like he telling any story, and see how clearly the visions stay over time. My truest psychic sense is the accident triggered the doorway, and as he heals from the trauma, so will the ghosts and other figures he sees. How is he feeling about it all?
My youngest daughter was missing a lot of school last year. She’d call me from school saying that she doesn’t feel good. As soon as she got into the car, she seemed fine. At home she’d play around & she didn’t seem/act “sick”. I was getting very frustrated about her behaviour. It finally hit me that she must be “empathic”. So I asked her if other kids come to school not feeling well & feeling better after being around her? Yes! she said. I explained to her what was happening & taught her how to protect herself & how to bless & release any ill feeliings that she feels, especially when she knows that it doesn’t “belong” to her, so I tell her to give it up to Mother/Father God. Once she started practicing these techniques, she quit calling home sick.
I was in a very confusing situation w/ my oldest daughter. My son & youngest daughter have had to deal w/ schoolyard “bullies”. I have all my children in Kung Fu & 2 of them are Jr. black belts & the 3rd is one belt test away from her Jr. black belt. Anyway, my oldest daughter has never had any problems w/ “child” bullies, but I started to notice that “ADULTS” were “bullying” her!!! Her school teacher was bullying her B/4 the end of the school year & a neighbor down the street “purposefully” almost hit her w/ her car!!!! As a mother bear, I reacted w/ anger, yelling, kicking & threats!!! Grown-ups are SUPPOSE to know better!! Aren’t they!!??? My daughter & I went for a psychic reading to ask “WHY”? are “adults” bullying my daughter??!! The psychic looked at me & told me that I already know why! These adults are “JEALOUS” of my daughter cuz her energy is so strong. When the psychic told me that I know already, I realized that I have had the same experience in my life w/ adults. Maybe that’s what added to my reaction. Fortunately, the school teacher transferred to another school (prayers answered!!!) & the byatch who almost hit my daughter w/ her car, I, of course, called the police!!! It was handled, not the way I wanted (behind bars), but it was handled.
My daughter is three years old. When she was an infant, and was upset, I always knew what was wrong, but I thought that was just a mom’s intuition. I could understand every babble she made too. However, as she has gotten older, she will mention something or someone that I was just THINKING about, out of the blue. Sometimes, if I hurt, she will ask me if I feel any better yet- and she can even pin point where my pain is. I never paid much attention, and I came across a tv show about psychic kids. As an experiment, I cleared my mind and thought of a color. I then asked her what color should I pick, and she said the color I was thinking about. So I asked her 5 more questions: a number (13), a song (one we rarely sing), two shapes and the color brown, which we rarely talk about. She guessed six out of six correctly. After that, I felt mentally and physically wiped out and I stopped. I did this again the next day with just a couple questions, and she was correct again. Is this a psychic ability just between the two of us? Is she psychic? I want to know more and what I can do to investigate further. Thanks!
Holli,
It sounds like your daughter is definitely telepathic/ psychic and when you were able to intuit her needs as an infant it was definitely because she was sending you clear mental messages. My daughter is also telepathic and I can understand her babble and intuit her needs too. These children have a very powerful energy they use to communicate with us and without knowing it, we pick up on it.
Continue to observe her and let her teach you. You can certainly read books and do your own research, but the best text book is your daughter who will continue to guide you. I used to seek knowledge outside of myself for things I didn’t understand, but as soon as I realized my children were really showing me most of the information I thought I was getting from outside sources, I began to settle into my own intuitive knowing. You are really practicing what we call being an “intuitive” parent. Good job and allow your daughter to lead you. If you have any more questions, don’t hesitate to ask!
Hello everyone
I have a son, he is almost four years old, and, from a very early age, a number of situations occured that got me thinking about the possibility that he might have psychic abilities.
Now that i have just happened upon this web site, maybe someone can let me know…
First of all, ever since he was born, if i would happen to have a nightmare, or simply wake up during the night, he would immediately wake up screaming, this was very frequent.
Also, there would be times i would walk into his room, just thinking of a song, and he would immediately tell me:”you’re singing the Little People song, aren´t you mommy?”
Then, one day, walking home from school, i remembered i had a little surprise for him…as soon as that idea came into my mind, he asked: “what’t that surprise you have for me?”.
One day, close to christmas, when he was two, we were driving home, and he starts looking at the sky, saying there’a a big boy crying…but he could’t explain much more.
Onde day, he was allright in the street, but when he got home, he refused to enter, and screamed from the top of his lungs…i never could explain that…
Also, one day, he was lying on top of me, and i was kinda watching a movie, when a subtitle came on. He can’t read, but after i had mentally read the question, he repeated it almost perfectly, at least the main words of it, trying to understand what it meant…
Recently, there have been no signs like this, specially since he started school. Can anyone shed some light on this? i would really appreciate it

Hi Vera
I do believe your son is intuitive, and mother and child having a telepathic connection with each other happens more than you think and is more common in the early years. So yes to being an intuitive child, highly connected to you. I cannot say yet if he is psychic as I don’t have enough information on the incidents you describe. They sound more like intuitive episodes, llke one-time events, because he was relaxed and tuned into the “air waves.”
At his age, children’s brain wave patterns tend to be in an alpha state, which is alert, relaxed, and attuned to the environment through feeling and sensation. As your son’s cognition develops around 6 to 8 years, this intuition could fade to the background for awhile and come to the forefront again in his tween years of 9 to 12.
When I feel his heart, he seems to be a sensitive and tender-hearted child. I feel a lot of artistry in him. When he is a little older, would you set up a small easel and butcher paper for him, so he can paint awhile? You mat have a budding artist. GOOD LUCK!
Hello,
I hope you are well.
My 10 year old son has told me that he sees things – people, walking around our home. He says they do not look at him but walk and he sees them from the side but when he blinks they disappear. He said he feels frightened when he sees them.
My son is the most complacent child, very well behaved. If he asks for something like a snack before dinner, if I say no! he says okay with out a problem – just accepting what I said without argument. He is very respectful. His teachers at school say he is easily the best child out of all the children in his school and that they would be blessed if all the children were like him. That he is so kind and considerate and the other children love being around him.
My son often complains of not having any energy to do anything. I took him to my GP for an explanation but my GP said that he probably just needs more meat in his diet because my son seems perfectly healthy. I just quietly took the information away with me. Actually, nothing helps – if I didn’t know my son I might think him a lazy child.
My son sees faces everywhere in our home, in the doors, in the shower curtain. He seems to find them everywhere and when you do look at what he is showing you – you actually can see a face. He also tells me that he sees ghostly people walking around outside during the day – he says that they just seems to be walking around everywhere but do not approach him. The ghostly people he sees seem to be around 50 years old. He also sees Skeletons and last night he said he saw a couple sitting on the grass on our front lawn. He said it looked like they were camping because hey were just sitting there.
I am inclined to believe what my son is saying. Have you heard anything similar?
Hi could you give me your son’s name please, that would help. Even a nickname if you do not with yo reveal more, and his birthday please. I need a sense of his person to tell you what is going on. If you prefer to do this privately, then we need a telephone consultation. I believe more is going on than just seeing ghosts. He has an unusual degree of sensitivity, but the laconic emotionality doesn’t fit the sensitive pattern. I would need to do a full physical, emotional and mental reading in addition to checking out the ghosts.
Hi, I am just looking for some feedback, I have a daughter, who is 9. She is very intelligent, and sensitive, and I am beginning to wonder if she has “psychic” tendencies. Since she was a baby, EVERY picture taken of her comes back with orbs, I always thought it was interesting but I figured it mus be her twin who died in utero. Last year I was late in getting to meet the bus and had a neighbor meet her at the bus stop, after that I made her a key and tucked it into a pocket in her back pack in case of an emergency situation where I didnt make it to the bus stop in time. Luckily, I never needed to have her use it, until last week when I got stuck in traffic a town away and it was getting close to her getting home. I am still leary of her going into the house by herself, even though we have discussed it and what to do, so I called the neighbor again rather than have her not be met. Well, the neighbor met her, and all was well, but the strangest thing had happened. Apparrently, while she was on her way home, she was sitting in the front seat and was several roads away from home when she said to the bus driver “if we ever get to my house and my mom isnt at the bus stop, dont worry because I have a key and can go into the house by myself” he said ok, then 5 minutes later pulled up, saw I wasnt there and looked at her and said, wow, that weird! Then just this week, I got a call from my mother that her bunny Cocoa had died that morning. My mom lives next door, so Cocoa was like our bunny too. Later that night, we were sitting in there and I said to my husband, you have to dig a hole for my mother tomorrow and help her bury Cocoa. My daughter just looked at me shocked and said Mom, I was at school today and had a thought that Cocoa would die soon. It just popped into my head she said.
I was so startled! She has always kind of “known” things, like if I bring home a donut, she would say I had a feeling you were going to bring home a donut, but these two incidents are staggering to me. If she has psychic tendencies, I would like to know how to handle them, develop them and what best way to help her nurture these abilities.
Thank you for any advice you can provide.
My sensitive daughter aged 4 was concerned about something for a while & finally asked with anxiety ‘When God talks to me, is it really God talking” I asked what he says & she said she doesnt understand him as he speaks in a different language, its when she is awake. Later she did understand & he seemed to say comforting things, boosting her ego ‘you are very kind’ etc. She is now 8, still deeply sensitive & empathic, always arguing that her imaginary worlds & friends are more real than this world. A psychic friend asked if she was psychic as she felt she was. I dont know if I should be encouraging her, and if so how ??
Hi MaryMay
If your daughter still hears her inner wisdom and is empathic after the last four years, then she fits the intuitive-empath intelligence continuum. If the preschooler still has the skills you describe after the age when intellect and cognition set in, then chances are she will not close them.
On encouragement?? LOL – we’ve written a book about how parents can encourage the intutives! Please go to http://www.RaisingIntutivechildren.com and be put on the list for an April 2009 delivery date.
For now, your daughter seems comfortable with her gift, so your encouragement is more along the line of listening, discovering her world through her eyes. Some very psychic children do best with training to listen to their inner wisdom. Taking notes, taking action steps, learning to trust through real world experience. It is a trust walk that you take together, understanding that inner wisdom is always a positive, supportive modeling of confidence in her strength.
Are there more specific questions you wanted to ask? I sense so.
cheers

Hi Martina, we’re happy to assist and it would help if you could provide more information.
Your son’s name:
Where do you live?
When did he start seeing faces? Describe what he sees?
What kinds if sounds does he hear? How long has this been going on?
When did he start refusing to sleep in his room?
How do you respond to your son’s fears and what he sees?
Thanks Martina. I look forward to your response.
Hi my daughter monica (6 yrs old) has been having nightmares lately it is everynight at about the same time. I would ask her what she sees and she would tell me people where watching her through the windows. She has become very frightened. It got to the point to where she would not even go into the living room, bathroom, her room, etc. with out me being with her. I dont know what to do to help her through this. She is a very sensitive child she is very emotional and peoples emotions efect her deeply. She is also very caring, that is what her teacher says she does not like when people are injured or sad. Things like that.
I have felt for a long time that she may be sinsitive from some past experiances.
When she was about a year old we lived in a house and her room always creaped me out that is the only way i can discribe it. I hated going in that room. When i put her in there to sleep or she would cry she would not stop crying until i took her out. I kind of let that go i thought that it was because she just did not want to sleep in her own room. But when we moved and i put her in her new room she was fine.
One time I was driving down a back road and stoped at a very old house for a moment and she started crying saying that she wanted to leave because the black monster was coming. So we left and she was fine. I kind of just blew it off.
When we bought our house and i put her in her room she started crying saying that there was a monter in the corner of her room. this went on for a couple of days. So i worked with a lady and she told me to cleanse the room and house she told me how to do it and gave me the herbs. I did what she told me to and it seemed to help.
Then recently this stuff has started happening. If you could let me know what to do so I can help her through this.
Thank You,
Heather
Hello,
My daughter monica age 6 has been coming into my room every night for about two weeks saying that there are people watching her through her windows. Also one morning after she had woken up i was taking her into my room so she could lay down and sleep and she said mom there he is in the kitchen window so i looked up and was like i do not see anyone and she just told me that she was scared. It has gotten so bad that she does not want to go into her room alone. I just do not know what to do.
When we first moved into this house she would not go into her room because she said there was a monster in the upper corner of her room. I talked to a lady that i worked with and she told me that i needed to cleanse her room she gave me the stuff to do it i did and she has been fine for almost a year.
Before that I was driving down a dirt road and there was an old house (I love old houses) i stopped just to look at it in the car. She started crying and told me that we needed to leave because the black monster was coming. I got gooseflesh and we left. I asked her about it later when we got home and she just said that the black monster scared her. I let it drop because this was the first time it had happened.
Now that all this is happening I am worried about her.
Thank You,
Heather
Hi Heather,
grab a cup of tea or coffee. This may be a long. The term for your sensitive daughter is emapth. Read more about on this site and in the book at the top of the page. An empath has the ability to connect to the feelings of others, as you describe to an animal, or has her teacher describes, she is caring when others are hurt. Empaths have big hearts and can “feel sick” by injustice, bullying, violent cartoons or television shows or even being around a depressed person.
In addition, Heather can see the ghosts around, so she can also be clairvoyant. Having these intuitions is a gift for her, but something scary that keeps her from engaging her environment fully. She is not having fun with it. How can you help her?
1. Help her take charge. When she sees the ugly monster, don’t drive away from the scene to qualm her fear. Help her yell at the Monster to, “Go away. Leave me alone.” Older children have also used the phrase, “In the name of Light, leave me alone and leave the premises.” This has to be done with strength, power, even yelling if necessary…asking nicely doesn’t work. The point is it gives Heather a way to take charge, instead of the ghost being in charge.
2. You did the right thing in clearing her room…what did you do? Please share on this blog, so other people will also have those tools. So you have the right idea to find techniques that will work for you, and now that Heather is old enough, you can also let her do the clearing while you support and model it for her.
3. You do know how to help her. In fact everything you have done, holding her while she cries to help her feel safe, taking her out of the bedroom that scared her, clearing her bedroom with herbs, seeking knowledge…….YOU are helping her so much by asking and learning.
I cannot tell you that this will go away or that there is a way to fix the issue, because the empathy and clairvoyance are part of Heather’s intuition, just like another child may be great at sports. When empathic children don’t have accepting and loving parents like you, they become very confused as to what they feel, if it all right and acceptable to feel, and when overwhelmed by feelings, do the natural instinctual survival thing of running away. We want her to feel empowered to stand her ground. I remember in the catholic school I attended as a child, the would hit a specific friend of mine in the head. He had a medical condition which made him fall asleep in class, and she hit him hard to wake him up. I felt every blow, and wanted to stand up and scream, “Leave him alone you bully.” I never did, and swallowed so many such feelings through the years, that part of my mission is to help children speak up and manage those kinds of feelings of empathy.
So you accept her gifts and understand they won’t go away. The good thing about her age is that she is moving into the age where her intellect will develop, and your ability to talk with her and listen to explanations will be soothing. Make seeing ghosts a game, and act it out. When children are fearful, playing or play therapy helps to act out the inner feelings in a safe way with mom. Drawing and coloring is another way to get what scary stuff inside her out on paper. When she can see and feel her rendition of the ghost, it isn’t so scary anymore.
Always keep an open door to her feelings as having a witness hear them helps her accept them.
Hi my son is 7 in two weeks and for years he has described seeing shapes that move around the house in day light. Then he describes seeing people who disappear in front of him. All in different environments. He was born in february of 2002. ALways been very sensitive to situations and peoples emotions. He is frightened of the situation in the house as he wont go upstairs or around the house on his own. He points at the shape that moves and i cannot see any thing that it might be.

thanks. Get back to us and we’ll respond.
hello,
My son, age 4 1/2, is having some behavior issues. In retrospect and recent occurances I am wondering if we are not dealing with a sensitivity or psychic ability. Past experiences include as young 1 1/2 on the way home from being with his grandmother he began wailing and saying he needed his grandma, he was overcome with emotion and he would not quit crying. This continued for 3-5 minutes, he was unconsolable, as we entered the house the phone was ringing, it was my mother, she had been in a wreck and totaled her car. Almost as fast as he began crying he stopped. When asked I thought you needed grandma, he said no and went about his business like nothing ever happened. He has mentioned seeing his paw paw (who passed before he was born) up with God. When looking at pictures he says he’s seen him before up with God. He hasn’t slept in his bed through the night since he was about 2 and almost like clockwork comes to our room at 3-4 am. More recently he hasn’t wanted to sleep in his room even to begin with and we have always had to lay next to him to get him to sleep no matter where we are. When spending the night with his aunt he woke her up the same time 3-4 and refused to go down the hallway even holding her hand saying someone was in his chair(the recliner he likes in the frontroom). Only after physically carrying him and explaining that she would never let ANYTHING harm him did he agree to go into the frontroom. He has also recently been looking off in the distance and asking me Where are the people going or Why are they leaving. When I ask who he just repeats, and I specifically ask if he is talking about a reflection he is seeing the mirror(of myself and him or someone else) he says, someone else. He has mentioned this to his teacher at preschool. I want to do what is best for my child. He has such trouble focusing…almost like he is looking at something, or someone that they have suggesting ADHD. But my gut tells me that is not it,, He has such moments of clarity and I wonder if he is acting out because he doesn’t know what to do with something he is feeling, seeing, hearing or what.

thanx for any input
William is my sons name. Two years ago he saw black or dark shapes moving. Now he describes specific people. men, women and children.He is afraid that one minute they are there and they disappear before his eyes. i cannot see what he does. I have at times both nothing towards the object or person. Other times i have felt cold or shivery – which could be my imagination !

I do believe your son is seeing “others” and yes, I feel he is a empath. Much is discussed in the book offered on the blog, Raising Intuitive Children. The clincher for me as you describe your son’s experiences are his connection to your mother and seeing his granddad, who he’s never seen. He may or may not have a gift. You need to watch as he matures over the next few years.
What few parents realize is that from birth through about age 5-6, children’s brain wave patterns operate in the dreamy, feeling, intuitive realms which means they are connected to the physical, nonphysical etc, and can see and feel many things if they feel safe and connected. If not, they can feel scared and sensorally overwhelmed. So, watch as he grows up and becomes more cognitive, logical. He may turn to the outer world, or he may stay tuned in, or he might shut down and reopen as a pubescent. Ages 9-11 are sensitive year for boys anyway, and especially sensitive for sensitives.
On another note, don’t let anyone label him as ADHD – when you say he stares at distant things, he is focused, just not on what someone else wants him to be focused on. For sensitive children, they will daydream, you cannot change their nature or drug them out of it. So tell me, is he hyperactive, and when he is “seeing” or focusing elsewhere, how long can he hold his focus? let me know
Actually waking at around 3 in the AM in not unusual. sensitive people, attuned to earth rhythms, do wake at that time – has to do with one’s biorhythms being in sync with circadian rhythms.
Dear Suzanne,
It does sound like and feel like William sees – not sure what to call them – ghosts, apparitions, spirits. I can’t comment on the shadow figures as that is a past incident. But if is describing clothing and human aspects, then I would say, he is seeing ghosts. Moat likely, they don’t disappear before his eyes, rather his eyes shift focus from that scene – we see this world and the other world through light which our brain translates into images. So the images he is seeing are not constant nor consistent as he doesn’t hold his focus there a long time – perhaps due to his fear.
That is why I always ask a parent, do you feel, see hear anything? So if you get chills or feelings sometimes, then that can be validating for William’s reality
The book Raising Intuitive Children can help answer many of the issues about empowering him within his environment. So let me ask you another question. If William is scared of something, how do you help him through his fears?
I tell William that alot of children see ‘things’ and that it is normal. I do not endorse or dismiss – as i don’t know either way.The problem is he says that the people he sees are wearning the same clothes which says to me he may be not seeing ghosts etc?
I tell William that I do not endorse or dismiss – as i don’t know either way.The problem is he says that the people he sees are wearning the same clothes which says to me he may be not seeing ghosts etc?
Suzanne, please explain more. How do you see that the clothing may mean he isn’t seeing ghosts? And then I can respond some more.
William describes the people he sees as all wearing the same clothes, each individual wears the same clothes as the other individual, never differing. But the faces sizes and ages are all different. william describes them in great detail the age, gender, the tie the shirt on all males. The females as wearning casual clothes but evry one is wearing identical clothes!
William is what i can only describe as a sensitive and emotional boy, he feels my sadness, others pain, films are too much for him that show sadness. He will think about peoples situations and emotions in depth and discuss them in depth.
Suzanne
What concerns me here is that William is also an empath which is hard for children, especially tweens to understand. I think it is fantastic that you help him be aware of feelings, that he can discuss them etc. What does not seem balanced is his tendency toward association with the negative or heavier feelings. My stepson was such a child, and there are many ways to help William channel his energies into really creative endeavors as he really needs some success in the positive expression of joy, music, writing, painting, playing a guitar. If you haven’t read these book already, they might help

caron,
thanks for you comments. I appreciate any help I can get. Yes, he is hyperactive and when you are trying to talk to him if you don’t get really really close to his face his eyes will dart around like he’s looking at something….but not so much something that is actually in the room(physically). My sister and I have concluded his greatest moments of focus on the here and now are when he is very close to the object or person . Almost like we are blocking something out that breaks his focus when we are that close. When he stares off he is usually doing that only a few minutes but you must get very close to him to get his attention from what he was previously focused on. We (our family) have been trying to ask him what is scaring him (when he won’t go into rooms etc.) He says mean people. The other night I was just encouraging him,while laying down for the night, that if he is ever scared, happy, sad or mad that he can always tell me or another member of the family. He put his nose to mine and said OK, and then said I need to tell you why I’m afraid of the dark. There are monsters and they are mean. I asked if they did mean things or if they just looked mean. He said they look mean. Then he told me of a “friend” he says moved with us to our new house from our hometown He completely described her (eyes,color of hair, her age, and that she talks to him w/out using her mouth).her name is emily. I said is she nice he said yes, and then he goes thanks mom, and rolled over and went immediately to sleep, like he was completely relieved that he had talked to me about these things. Not to mention that his behavior has improved since talking it out. I know kids his age have imaginary friends and great imaginations but the relief in his voice and eyes is very evident. Thanks for the input……No i am not allowing an ADHD label….we have a great doctor…he doesn’t think he is adhd either. it’s the school…..they have 15 kids and need them all to “walk the line” so to speak. I think he needs to work on keeping in his own space…..but I don’t think it is ADHD. He is actually a very gentle and kind child but I don’t think he fits in their box. Again, thanks so much for the input….hopefully this will answer some of your questions thoroughly.
thanks z
Hi Z
Wow, what a beautiful story of how you helped your son to sleep and move through his fear. Your story demonstrates the simple, yet profound concept of focusing on what he needs. I feel we sometimes get so wrapped up in wanting to fix the situation, the ghosts, the fear… that we overlook the simplicity of listening, the bonding through closeness. You also relayed another interesting technique that other parents can use, and it REALLY works well. After listening to a fearful story, ask about the “good ghost,” the friendly angel, the caring imaginary friend. Remembering the good aspects after the fearful return your child’s mind and heart to a peaceful condition.
So we have learned several things. 1. He can see entities in the nonphysical spaces, 2. has the ability to connect with the entity through time. 3. Feels and sees a “meanness” about them. 4. Feels anxiety about the negative aspects, and needs soothing, connection and being heard to make his life events OK!
If you can make a game out of telling the “mean ghosts” to go away, I feel your son would be more empowered to handle such situations in the future. I know one parent who dressed with a superman cape, as did her daughter (thank heavens for halloween costumes) and they went into her bedroom (with monsters) and dictated the entities leave. and the negative entities did leave.
I have one more thought, then I’ll close for the night. Have you had his eyes tested to insure that no physical problem exists?
cheers

caron–
Thanks for the affirmation. We are doing our absolute best and he seems to be feeling more comfortable in the last couple of weeks. Yes, we have had his eyes checked and he wears glasses since August. Thanks for the suggestion. This site has been such a help, and I feel better myself, just by being heard myself!
More peaceful

Thanks Z – glad we could help.
Hello,
I am having some recent issues with my four year old daughter with her new preschool/daycare that she started attending about 3 weeks ago. She has never (to my knowledge) “seen” or “talked” to any ghosts or spirts but SHE IS ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED OF HER DAYCARES BASEMENT. She has been coming home lately telling me and my husband that “she doesn’t like the way they treat the house”. I have asked her several times to elaborate, but she usually refuses until tonight. She was crying about how she doesn’t like the way they treat the house so I started asking her questions. I asked her if it was the Teachers and Caregivers there that were doing things to upset her to the “house” and she said no. Then I asked her about the children that attend and she keeps saying no. She told me that it’s the other people in the basement. She says they are only in the basement and they are really rough (like play rough). Could she possibly be seeing something in that basement that she isn’t comprehending? She can’t give me any names of the people she just says that they are big like mommy and daddy. So I know they aren’t children. Also we have been remodeling our house for the past month, could this have something to do with what is going on with her? I appreciate your help

Hello,
I have a son who is 5 years old and since he was about 3 some strange things have occured with him. It all started one night when he was about 3 and in bed, i thought i heard him sobbing so went into his room to find him sitting up and laughing hysterically, when i asked what he was laughing at he said ” the funny man” and continued to laugh while he seemed to be looking straight through me. Ever since then he also has 3 imaginary friends that he talks to all the time.
Then one night his dad and me were in the car with him and we were picking one of his workmates up, i had never met the man and neither had my son, the mans name had not even been mentioned but my son kept saying “are we going to get David” which is also the name of my brother who we thought my son was talking about. It wasn’t till the next day that it clicked to my husband that the mans name was David but everyone called him Davie so he had’nt clicked. There have also been a couple of occasions when he has asked what time someone is coming to the house, and usually we’re not expecting anyone but then out the blue that person turns up. Most recently my sister in law who is expecting a baby was at ours and we asked him if the baby was a boy or a girl (she was still too early to find out the sex) and my son told us it was a boy. My sister in law recently had her scan and it was confirmed that yes it is a boy she is having.
My son was born 8 weeks premature. He has always been very empathetic towards others getting more upset than them, he is very well behaved, he is at school now and his learning absoloutly amazes me the teachers say he is very intelligent, kind and considerate.
I was just wondering if anybody had any insight to what might be happening with him, is he psycic
Hi my name is Yvonne and I have a 6 year old daughter that just blows me away with the things she tells me…let me start at the beginning lala was premature and at birth she had her cord wrapped around her neck they had to bring her back.she also had to saty at the hospital for about a week and a half.when I brought her home I was standing in the kitchen my husband holding lala over his shoulder and me cooking as I turn to tell my husband something and I see this lady standing behind him looking over his shoulder at my daughter.I knew we had to move out the house immidiatly so we did. A week after the move we came back to pick up our pool we left in the backyard to find the house had burnt down.then nothing for a long time.I started thinking that lala may have add or adhad she wouldn’t speak or do any of the things my other kids done when they was her age. By the time lala started speaking she was around 4 but it was still a lot of gibberish untill one day in january of last year.our neihgbor passed in a tragic accident at work.we didn’t tell lala about this. The day of the funeral all of the neighbor kids came into our backyard and as I let my kids out to play lala ran straight for the oldest son gave him a big hug and went to play. As she came back in I asked her y she had hugged that boy and she answered me “because his daddy is dead and I wanted to make him feel better” my stomache turned I then asked her who had told her this and she told me “the good monster in my dream”….in april of the same year our 2 year old niece passed 2 weeks b4 her 3rd birthday.the day it happened jada’s(our niece)dad calls us telling us there was an accident and he has to fly to florida (where jada was on a visit with her mother)…that night I told all the kids we had to pray for jada cause she was sick and that was the only thing I said.that night my husband and I got the call that jada was taken off lifesupport and didn’t make it.the very next morning as my husband and I r sitting on the couche in dissbelieve lala comes out her room sits next to me and says jada said she is ok she is with her grandma playing in the flowerfield.I had to get up and walk into the kitchen as lala followed me she grabs a piece of paper and a pen and starts drawing a pool and 2 kids she then goes on to telling me that jada told her it was accident as her and her brother was playing catch around the pool her brother pushed her and she fell into the edge of the pool hitting her head and drowning. When we spoke to jadas father he told us that all the adults was in the kitchen andnt noticed the kids wrent in the house when they finally realized this they went to go look for the kids and the aunt that was on the balkony saw jada floating on the bottom of the pool.by the time the ambulance arrived it was too late for jada already.they flew the body out here to NJ for the funeral and the wake.at the wake I gave my last respects to jada so little and innocent there she was in her cascate and omg a big blue bruise on her 4head.lala how did she know this??? I couldn’t go to the funeral I was too afraid lala would come out and say something nobody was ready to hear.the day after the funeral jadas father came over bringing all of jadas toys as lala walks out of her room and making the statement oh uncle sammy is bringing jadas stuff cause he’s making room for the new babygirl.she not only predicted the date the new baby was going to b born but also the babys gender and the time of her birth. She was off my 2 minutes but close enough for me.there is so much more I could tell but I’m not sure if it is coincidence or somehow she was able to overhear or does she really have a great gift and how do we handle it as a family??
dear Yvonne, I can hear your mind be skeptical, and I can feel your heart know the truth…of course your daughter has very high intuitive intelligence and will be her gift in life. How else can you explain a child, whose has 35% more ability on the nonphysical world than adults do, be so right on again and again.
I can explain to you how she knows it through research studies. And I have already written about it in my book, Raising Intuitive Children. Please go to the top of the page and purchase the book, which will help you understand how to rear your daughter with confidence. Yes she has a gift, and it is best of the family learn about it together.
Thanks for sharing your story. What other questions can we answer for you?
Hi. I would like to ask something. My daughter was always very emotional and its been much worse since she hit 12. Now I for one see things but its in spurts (So to speak) I am a precog but I haven’t learned how to control it. My daughter is very sensitive to things, I am not. She has seen “other things” she also knows when I need something and has always been there. I am not sure if she is psychic or what. I know I need to explain some things to her but not sure exactly how. She knows things even before I tell her and I can hear when somethings wrong because I can hear “MOM”. Yes , its in my head but sounds clear as day.
Another is my 2 year old. She is not easily scared. But lately she runs up to me screaming, clawing at me to pick her up. I do then I ask whats wrong , all she does is point and say dat. So I get up and show her there is nothing here. But she seems to see things I can’t. I was told from a very young age that “this is stupid, you don’t see anything”. I don’t want to do this on my children.
Any advice on either or???
ok this may sound really weird but my friends and me hav bin seeing monstes in our mirrors and in our dreams and wen we open our eyes in the middle of the night we have cuts on our arms and we arr hearing voices in the dark this is really freakin us out pls if you have any info on this tell us
Hi Marie
Please buy the book, Raising Intuitive Children. It will guide you into helping your 12 year old. What specific questions do you have about your daughter? She seems tuned in as far as what you tell me? And you and she seem to have a telepathic link… what do you want to know?
For your two year old, just validate what she points to if you want her to keep the inner eye open. If you don’t validate it, then she will eventually close that door to that reality as that reality wasn’t “made real” by mom or dad’s approval. Kids that young check their realities with a parent.
Hi Kiva
Ya, I’d be freaked out also. I can’t give you any info because you haven’t old me enough about the situation.

Though I’m not a mom, these are the experiences I have had growing up:
1) When I was 6 I had a dream about my family running away from darkness, and my uncle and 2 grandmothers were taken. I also had dreams of the former occupant of the house we lived in who scratched my back ( I was blamed 4 this) When I was 7 when my uncle died then 10 when my 1st grandmother died and finally the next year my last grandmother died.
2) I would get picked on by both teachers and students because they said that “There was something off about me” (which meant I didn’t have any friends until college)
3) I sometimes can feel things when I go to certain places
4) I have had 5 other dreams that have come true
5) I can usually tell where a person is (even if I don’t see them)
I’m not sure if I’m crazy or not and I’ve tried telling my mom over the years but she still thinks I’m lying or I have an overactive imagination, can u tell me what I have?

It sounds like from your descriptions that your dreams are precognitive – but my greater sense is that you are an empath, someone whose strong sense of feeling is most likely your talent. An empath with close connections to their family, especially a close extended family would be aware of their illness, intense feelings etc. I have known several people, children and adults, who know when their loved ones are going to die. Our counseling focused on accepting the fact that this is part of the life cycle, and not to feel responsible for it or upset by it. As a friend of mine said, “It is what it is, and sometimes you have to accept the talent, and then figure out what to do with what God gave you.” So what do you do with what God gave you? Do you need a mentor or do you have someone you can work with?
I tried telling my mom and she said that was a sign of the devil and sent me to Christian camp for a month. So if I get any dreams I keep them to myself. She had also read my dream journal and she just said I had an over active imagination. So I’m not sure who to talk to here.
Hello P. Yee
You are always speaking with me, Caron. It sounds like you do not have a lot of support at home. How can I help you? Are you also empathic like I discussed in the previous post? Or is precognitive dreaming your primary gift. Guess what? I just bought a book by the vary famous, Dr. Larry Dossey called The Power of Premonitions, how knowing the future can shape our lives. P. Yee, there is now some research happening to support precognition and dreams such as yours.
I’m not sure what I am actually ^^’ but yeah I don’t have anyone to talk to at home (my mom is half Chinese but she’s old fashioned). And if I can I’ll try to read it (though I doubt I can, since returning from Christian camp my mom checks my room and confiscates stuff :S)
well, this blog is always here, and I usually check in at least once a week unless I am travelling. Be well.

My son O’Rion is now three and a half years old. he began talking about someone named Shippy around the age of one and a half. He has not stopped talking about him still. He was so young when this started that it seemed weird. However, Shippy still is around. He has described him as being a boy that is 14 and says he wears a yellow shirt and dark jeans has brown hair and eyes. For the past few years he often mentions Shippys name. I woud notice him talking and seeming to listen to the air? This interaction was pretty intense he would even insist that Shippy come with us in the car when we went places as he has gotten older Shippy comes and goes he has told us he moved but recently he said he came back. He somtimes acts out with anger because he says Shippy won’t leave him alone. He got upset because Shippys scooter was faster then his. He has tried descrbing his house and other small details. all of this with no cohersion from anyone, he brings it up all on his own. My son has never been to daycare and is very well taken care of and very bright for his age. about six months ago he said he has a new friend named Dave and they often play football and basketball in the house ( my son looks like he is throwing and catching or dribbling and shooting however, he doesn’t have a real ball) His sleep is restless and has been for a while there are days when he doesn’t talk about either of them and sometimes the interactions go on for days with the same description he says Dave is six sometimes the ages change but not very often it is usually the same story again with no cohersion he wil simply tell us when Shippy or Dave is around and often tells us when they go somewhere else. Our home was new when we moved in. We live in Delaware about 30 miles west of Lewes which is said to be the first settlement in the first state. I am not sure what to make of all this what do you think
Hi Kendra
Thanks for visiting the blog and sharing O’Rion’s story. Please get the book Raising Intuitive Children because the whole book is nurturing a child’s intuitive talents in a normal family setting without the drama or putting too many expectations on your son, and you can follow him as he matures to see how his talents might continue or close around the age of reason…age 7 or so. What you describe from Orion’s inner world is great rich interaction. What you describing so far sounds like a vivid interaction with beings on the other side. I think one level of imagination is seeing spirits; the next level is talking with them, and then playing with them as you describe playing ball. So what I think is right now its great for his age, and I believe he sees what he sees. IS he clairvoyant? Probably, and you might not know for sure until he’s older. If this same kind of interaction occurs over the next several years, most likely, O’Rion will keep the intuitive gifts open. But you’ll watch and be aware of this as he grows up.
Your story reminds me a recent story told to me by a Native American who practices the old ways of his people, which include being aware of the spirit walkers. His son played with his two grandmothers for hours each day for most of his early childhood years, and his grandmothers has passed over before he was born. another story in Raising Intuitive Children speaks of a four year old who played with her imaginary rabbit friend until the parents had to sell the house. They has a clearing done on the house so it would sell, and the little girl came running to her mother in tears, saying “the bunny rabbit is going away. He said goodbye. I don’t want him to go.” The person who cleared the land asked the keeper of the land to say goodbye to the family and prepare the way for the next owner, so the keeper of the land, who has shown himself to the child as a rabbit, did as requested.
Enjoy O’Rion. Play with him and have some fun! The magic only happens once.
In addition O’Rion has been spiking fevers every night for the past three weeks I have had the pediatrition check for illness but he is fine. He gets very hot at night and when he waks is stil warm to the touch but then it just dissapears. He also has told me that Dave and Shippy are not friends. I am not trying to over react or claim that he has abilities I only want to what I can as a parent to foster his growth and abilities in all areas of his life.
I have a 3 and a half old son. He has always had ear infections so the ENT gave him gromets in september 2007. After his operation he has always been asking me what this noise is but i could never hear any thing so i assumed it was his ear sore again. We moved into a different house at the start of this year and i have heard footsteps on the floors and i get a realy bad vibe from a bedroom so we dont use it. I have recently lost my older sister and i take my son out to the cemetry every few days to visit her, he always seems shaken and very stand-offish. My son is not a very big talker but when we were leaving my mothers house one night to go home he ran up from down stairs screaming about a ghost i asked him where it was and he replied by telling me it was at my house n my mothers. Is it possible that he has a gift or can he just be feeling vibes off of me??
Hi Loretta, can you please tell me your son’s first name and answer a few questions?
Is he allergic to milk?
Is he a milk drinker?
Does he drink any liquids like sodas or juices that contain aspartame?
Was his hearing checked before or after insertion?
Does he describe what he hear such as words, whispers, male or female voice, sounds like white noise or such?
Has he fallen hard and bumped his head or twisted his neck, like down the steps, tripping hrd, or being in a rear ended car?
thanks.
Caron
Hi Caron,
My son’s Name is Hayden. I have a feeling that he is allergic to milk but no tests have been done. I do not allow him to drink it as he gets sick. Hayden has a small cup of coke every now and then and none of the juices he drinks contain asparatame. His hearing has been checked since he was 6 months old and his operation was when he was 1yr and 7 months. He hasnt fallen or twisted his neck (no accidents). Last night i walked into his room to tuck him in and he was talking so someone saying “its my pillow, my sheet and my blanket” i asked him who was talking to and he said the ghost. He has a queen bed up against the wall, he usually sleeps near the wall but last night he slept closer to the edge… leaving a gap for his friend. This morning i asked him who the ghost is and he said its a girl and there amber and jacob (Amber 6 and Jacob 4 is my niece and nephew, the children of my 24 yr old sister who was recently killed in a car accident. The kids were in the car with her but they survived.) I dont understand why he would say its the kids when they have not passed on
Hello Loretta, So sorry for the delay in responding. The Academy for Coaching Parents suddenly got busy with registration for the fall semester. Thank you for being so patient, as well as so thorough in your responses. My responses come from my own clairvoyance as well as my professional capacity as a counselor, coach, or psych – many hats. First, the reading of Hayden’s physical energy – yes to milk allergies, your intuition is right on! I do believe he is also allergic to wheat gluten and wheat-type products.
Regarding his ghosts – there are four “spirits”or “spirit walkers” around him. One an adult women, hair is neck length, kind personality, seems young at heart, and she seems to know Hayden. Three children-size spirits are gathered around Hayden, and I do not sense that they know him as a friend. I feel Hayden can see them, and they know this, and they hang around him. They are not of a pesky-type energy, one female child, looks like 7 or 8 years, and two younger male spirits, maybe around 5 or 6. They do not identify themselves with names.
Okay – I am switching hat to counselor – you and Hayden can send these ghosts on to find another home. Tell hayden that he wouldn’t want a physical friend bothering him, and the same goes for spirit friends, unless he won’t let them go, in which case, email me back.
i believe Hayden uses his cousins’ names for the children ghosts because of the age similarities and lack of identity by name (to me, that is). There is no need for Hayden to be afraid, so if you and he can be empowered to ask if they need help, want angels, go play somewhere else….let me know.

Hello,
I have had custody of my stepdaughter almost a year now and since she has been with us she claims to see things. She had a traumatic child hood of abuse and neglect.. She is always happy and very energetic..she didnt have a whole lot of structure when we got her or good hygene and manners we have had to teach her as if she were a toddler. She recently has been getting into trouble at school not paying attention and being told many times to behave. She is good at home and at her afterschool care place.. there have been many times over the year since we have had her that she has claimed to see a grey shadow and is extremely terrified after the experience. She also has claimed to see a little girl “messing with her at night and not letting her sleep” She often talks to someone that isnt there and when I asked her why she has been misbehaving in school so much this school year ( which wasnt a problem last school year when we got her) she says that she gets a lot of headaches and she hears things.. sometimes she hears my 14 year old daughter or familiar voices but can’t possibly be hearing them cause we are not there. She says that the voices in her head are driving her nuts and thats when she gets in trouble for not listening or following directions.. Her mom has had her diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 3 and started her on ridalin and concerta when she was 5 yers old.. when I got her we wheened her off the meds ( last school year) and started monitoring her without meds ( this school year) because we believe her hyperness and lack of attention was from no structure or boundaries in her last home..Like I said she does well at home and at afterschool care and she is a sweet child but she has a con artist way about her at times and even laughs when getting into trouble but then when she is asked about her behavior she says the voices in her head are driving her nuts and sometimes tell her to do bad things.. I dont even know how to respond to that..I have also had the experiences of her knowing conversations that have taken place when she wasnt around but knew what was talked about?? I have taken her to a therapist she believes that she has reactive attachment disorder.. and children of that disorder only get worse..their brains have rewired themselves for survival and they have no remorse for their actions and can lie as if their life depends on it becuase they literally feel that it does.. she said that she feels she has slight ADD but not ADHD.. Some of the symptoms of the disorder I have read she does have but the destroying of property and physical and emotional anger outburst are not there.. she is a good kid that misbehaves here and there but I get headaches and the voices in my head are driving me nuts statement is disturbing and the sudden screams and running to me claiming she sees a grey shadow in the shape of a little girl and sometimes man..and the imaginary person she talks to just makes me wonder..can you tell me something on my sistuation so I can help her get the right guidance wether it be a gift or emotional trauma from her formal life..
Liz, I had emailed you privately and asked that you speak with me by telephone where I can get a clearer sense of both of you. There is too much to write and I would prefer to speak with you directly if you are open to that. My email may have gone to spam. Is this something you would like to do?
hi,
my 10 year old daughter says that she sometimes feels a presence.
she doesn’t know who or what it is. We spoke about this and she isn’t frightend at all. i have suggested to her that she shoud maybe ask a question next time she feels a presence and maybe she will find something out. a couple of days ago my husband and i were talking about immunisations i.e. the bcg jab that teenagers have. all our children aged 14, 13 , 10(Chelsey,daughter that feels presence) and 9 were present. many questions were asked, about t.b. and build up of water in lungs etc. my children are aware of the fact that my brother died of cancer 10 years ago, chelsey was 5 weeks old. my children weren’t aware of other complications i.e. my brother often had he’s lungs drained due to build up of water. Anyway to demonstrate what happens to a lung when there’s a build up of water my husband took a small plastic bag held it to he’s chest and slowly squeezed it. to my suprise chelsey who was standing next to the dinning table said she needed to sit down, she complained of not being able to breath properly , she held her chest and the colour drained from her face and she had a really cold sweat on i sat her on my lap and gave her a hug a few minutes later she was fine. is this just a coinidence? or was she experiencing something else?
thankyou yvonne
p.s. een though chelsey was 5 weeks old when my brother died she does know who he is because we do talk abot him and she see’s photos (my mother in law died 6 months later)
Hi Yvonne
Please explain how you see a connection between your ten-year-old daughter feeling a presence and her experience during the discussion. Are you trying to tie the two events together. Your daughter sounds ;ike an empath, which is explained in my book, Raising Intuitive Children. But I feel you are asking something more?

Hello There,
I have a 2year old little girl called Katelynn, born the 16 april 2007.
At bedtime she places both hands over hear ears and wont take them away even when i lie on the bed with her. She keeps saying something about the noise. She has started waking up at night screaming about the Monster and that the monster bit her ear off ( her cot is next to our bed).
We have noticed that she is having more and more nightmares and wakes often crying. If i check on her her hands are over her ears while she is sleeping. Tonight she woke up crying ( sleeping on our bed), she pointed to the celing and said mommy whats that, i asked what does it look like and she said “like Mommy”, i asked if it was pretty and she said yes. i told her it was an angel, but she is too yong to understand.
We have had some strange things happening in the house for a few years now, but we never felt uncomfortable with it, untill now with my daughter.
I would appreciate your thoughts?
Many Thanks

Hi Danielle, Thanks for writing. I’ll be happy to check into your environment, with your permission? Also I have several questions, if you don’t mind answering them.
1. What time does Katelynn go to bed?
2. Does she eat anything right before going to bed, and if so, what does she eat?
3. What is the emotional atmosphere of your home?
4. Does she have allergies, earaches or sinus drippage?
5. How much sugar does she eat in a day?
6. When you ask her why her hands are over her ears, what does she answer?
thanks
Caron
1. 7:30pm
2. Drinks formula milk, maybe after a few mouthfull of veg and chicken.
3. Great marridge, very invloved daddy. Happy household, buzy and full of fun and love. really i consider myself very blessed.
4. No allergies that we know of. Has had grommits at 8 months of age, have fallen out by now. I do think that she suffers from a slight sinus drippage, but not sure since she has been a healthy kid in comparrisson to her brother who has had 4 sinus operations.
5. Not much sugar, try to offer lots of fruit which she likes. She has a savoury tooth. Maybe one sweet treat a day.
6. She says that the man is shouting at stef ( our staffie dog), that he is making lots of noise.
This past saturday she was rolling on our carpet next to my husband and said “man hurting me’ while looking at the playroom. She has a fantastic imagination and loves books. i just find her comments rather odd.
She is otherwise a physically strong little girl, 5cm taller than she should be and very agile.
Kind Regards
Danielle

Thanks so much for responding to my questions. I was asking about sugar and milk because often children have allergies to the substances and white noise in the ears can sometimes be a result or nervous system irritation or mucous in the ear canal. So in reading Danielle’s health via distance, I see some minor sinusitis, but no mucous accumulation in the ears. When I see it in the sinus, it is more likely to be environmental irritants rather than food allergies.
I do see a wandering spirit in your home, what we call spirit walkers. A man who wears a white shirt, black slacks and black jacket and black hat, but the clothing is dated back to the early 1900s. He is more like a wanderer who is searching for his family, which included a young boy and young girl, twins. What I get from his memories of his life is that his wife and children were washed away in a flood. You can tell him with compassion that his family is not in your space and time, and he needs to find them in Light. You can ask him to move on, move up, ask for angelic assistance in directing his way.
I don’t see or feel any evil from him, more like a broken heart. I feel Danielle feels a space invasion and knows he is in a different space or dimensions, so to speak, and doesn’t know how to deal with it.
Can you help her learn to deal with it? it is fine to acknowledge her about the spirit walker, but he does need to leave so she can rest and not be distracted by him. You can listen to her stories, and teach her to ignore the man, focus her attention on you, in this world, play music to help her hear soothing sounds, return to playing together and ignore the ghost. If ignored, most usually move on.
If this frightens you, I am also willing to find a psychic who can do clearings long distance if you wish. Those that I would recommend would have web sites so you can review who they are. Does this feel overwhelming to you? Or doable?

Hi Caron,
I would like your help, but must admit that i feel concerned and out of my depth here. God says we are not to mess with the spirit world, but why is it allowed to interfere with us?
I really dont not want anything to do with it, ut if it is affecting my daughter then i will face up to it. She is a very precious little angel.
Thanks
Danielle
Hi Danielle
I think many of us feel out of our depth with this subject. happen to have experience with children who see ghosts so I am comfortable with the topic. Having seen them myself, I can discuss options that have worked for me or other families. I cannot answer your question about God and the spirit world and the mechanics of how it all works or coalesces, but each child has their viewpoint of their world, whether or not it matches our viewpoint. So I would like to suggest it is fine for you not to believe in it, and if this is your family beliefs, but then believe your child, and be empowered with her in telling her “friend” to go away. teach her to yell at the ghost and tell it not to trespass in her room. get proactive. Tell the man not to interfere in your lives or hers. I feel he will respect your space, and your daughter as well. Please let me know the outcome or if the condition changes.
Caron
Caron,
I have yet to hear a response to my situation I was hoping that you could give me your opinion on the events that have transpired over the past year. Could you please re -read my posting from Oct 5th and let me know what you think
Hi Liz, Yes I will search for it now and see what happened. Where in TX are you?
Caron
caron,
Yes I would be interested and I do think your email could have been sent to junk mail. I am currently living in Washington state. Can you email me the info again? Thanks
