Allotments 4 All

hi gang i've been real freaked out the last week. my two year old keeps seeing things that arnt there(or are they?) it all started when we were all watching corrie. yaeh i know. but he just looked up our open plan stair case and said look mommy its gran'gran' its a cat mommy! which me and the missus looked up and couldnt see anything. he then said its on the wall. thinking he saw just a shaddow. but there was no shaddow that looked catlike or hank marvin!!!! he then said it was a monster! now he is afraid of the dark. and wont go up the stairs alone.he said he likes the cat. later that evening when we went to bed my belt off my trousers was all tied up in knotts and on my pillow! and the kids swear blind they had'nt done it do you think its just an over active imagination or something more ominouse. our house is new and we are the only ever inhabitents. he often stands and stairs at my dads ashes on the shelf as if he is looking at someone or something. has anyone else had similar experiances.

I think if i was two and could see me grandads ashes i'd be freaked out.

They ain't his grandads ashes, they are a random sample of the ashes taken from the incinerator, along with the ash from the coffin, etc!!
(does anyone ever get back the replacement hip joint, or gold, or diamonds etc that don't burn, or do the staff do well on the scrap?) ;)

thanks for that tonybloke now i don know whats in there! have i got some stranger while my dads scatterd arround the west mids! oh he will be pleased. i wanted to put him in my ground bait and go fishing with him one last time but my mom put the jankers on that.

Your dad is in your heart, and his memories are in alive in your head!!
the way I look at these things is, My grandad used to live in a house, it got burnt after he had died and left the building, do I want some of the ashes to remind me of the house he used to live in??

I would seriously consider having your home blessed :)

When my youngest was a toddler she would insist on playing in the garage. One day she sung a rhyme we didn't recognise, when asked where she had learned it she said the lady in the garage had taught it to her.  We bought the house as an executors sale as the previous owner had lost her husband and was so bereft that she commited suicide by means of carbon monoxide poisoning in her car in the garage. A mutual aquaintance told us what a lovely lady she was, and so we lived with Mrs Jones for 17 years. She didn't bother with the rest of us though.

It's sounds like your kid's psychic. How exciting! Most children are psychic up to the age of seven at which time it's knocked out of them mainly by folk telling them not to be silly when the things their kids see they cannot see themselves.

It's a bit worrying when your child is frightened of going to bed so do your best to calm him down, not by Calpol though please!

It's nothing to do with the age of the property and you're probably thinking of ghosts which are a completely different subject.

Here are two books to read by well-known authors that you might find interesting. Find them on Amazon:

Psychic Children -  Sylvia Browne
Angel Kids - Jackie Newcomb

Would like to know how things progress. Feel free to email if you would like to.

spot On ACE!  ;D ;D ;D
(here I am again agreeing with you )  :o

Well I for one certainly aint bullsh*tting.

my father can tell when someone is pregnant often even before they know, and can tell the day time and weight almost accurately its quite freaky really.
the strangest thing my daughter ever did was aged about 4 or 5 stood still absolutely still shuddered and said 'oh dear mummy someones just died' :o

'there are more things in heaven and earth,Horatio,

than are dreamt of in your philosophy'.

Simmo, why not ask Dan if this can be put in the other board - Listening Post - rather than here, so that you can keep talking if you need to?

Cremation and Those Ashes...yep I'm pretty confident they'll be your dad's remains. One fire-up in one chamber then raked out when they've cooled, is the procedure. True,  gold and diamonds might be staff perks tho ;D

Betula's suggested getting in a priest or something? And certainly, years ago when I did some work in a council run Home  for the elderly, I learned that a priest from a nearby church had been round quite a few times over the years. And I only learned this after my colleague and I had both independently heard 'stuff' going off one night and I talked about it.

Hope you can reassure your little lad at night-times :-* What other children do you have btw?

Simmo,

Have a look at the link below about ashes, q.11 I think is helpful.  I had to look up all about this this week as we sadly went to a funeral and my 14 year old was very concerned and asking all sorts of questions.  They may not own the crematorium you went to but I am sure there are quite strict guidelines on these things as Hyacinth says.

Just try and keep your little one reassured, perhaps plenty of lighting on the stairs etc and maybe a nightlight in his room to comfort him, children often go through a phase like this, afraid of things that aren't really there, try and calm for him even if he is unnerving you.  A new cuddly toy to ward away the shadows perhaps?

Hope all is ok

dont know if this or one you made yourself would help albeit only psychologically

I would never let my kids go upstairs on their own age 2.   They usually headed for mischief at that age like stuffing the toilet rolls down the loo..   Happy memories.

Seeing things on the wall while watching Coronation street is not what I would call a night terror.

The spray is a nice idea however surely it supports the child's belief that there is a monster in that corner. :-\

I always used to keep the landing light on for my children,more for safety really in case they wanted to use the loo overnight.

I think that shaft of light is enough to take away that creepy deep black of night.

When I was young,it was quite common to have your house blessed. :)

Bless this house... Wasn't that a TV prog?  :-X
