I would like to ask parents about their own feelings when their child started talking about a past life.
Not about their concern about the behaviour of that child that might be caused by a past life, but about their emotions when they realize their child was not always their child – it was someone elses child, the PL personality knew persons/souls that the present parents don’t, and even were attached to them, etc.
When my son started talking about a past life, it gave me goosebumps at first. Carol writes about this feeling in her first book. It seems typical.
A few minutes later, I felt somewhat left out. My son clearly mentioned I was not with him in that past life. It seemed he had a brother whom he was most attached to.
My son was two at the time. I was the most important person in his life up till then, and I was a bit upset when I realized my baby had – in the past – attachment to people/Souls I didn’t know.
I think it sort of interrupted – for me – the natural flow of life. I was not yet ready to let go my attachment to him. I mean, I realized that, in the present life, I would need to let him go bit by bit, e.g. when he went to school, when he would start to have friends not from our neighbourhood, a girlfriend, and eventually go live somewhere else. But at the age of 2 I still expected to be part of everything he experienced. It took me a few hours to accept the facts.
Indeed, as Carol mentioned, it is something completely different to read about reincarnation and to hear your child tell about his own past life memories !
Eevee
