Psychic ds??

[belgianmama]

I'm sure my nearly 5 year old ds is psychic. He can read my thoughts. In the last 2 months he's replied to my THOUGHTS a number of times. The last time being saturday, when I thought that it might be nice to take them to adventureland to play. Just as I had thought that thought he said 'Did you say play, mama?' At first I thought it was coincidence, but it's just getting too often, too precise and a bit spooky.
Maybe it's got to do with the mother-child bond we've got!?

My mother said i was like that at that age...i used to tell her the phone would ring and who it would be. Can't say i'm too psychic now though!

wow, please post everything he says id love to know what else he picks up thats really instresting

Me and my DS (DS is 3 btw) have done the same.
We have been talking and he's finshed what I was going to say, or he's said what I was thinking. Only simple things. (why can't I think of anything right now!?)

I've always put it down to the fact that we have such a strong bond, we always have since his birth back in 2003.

It's a lovely thing to have I hope it carrys on as long as you wish it to.

Ok another example was that I was thinking about needing a wee. You know how it is coming home from a busy day @ work, straight into the kitchen and not stopping for simple things like drinking or the toilet. Anyway, I thought to myself I really need the toilet and my son said, but mama I don't need the toilet. He's still at the age where he thinks that anything is said is about and to him, so I would have expected him to say something like it, but not to my thoughts! He is in a very emotionally sensitive mood lately though, wanting lots of hugs, cuddles and just general praise for being a big boy and doing things on his own. So maybe these things are connected.

he could have been reading your body language at needing a wee...?

When I was 8 weeks pg with ds2 I was reading Miffy to ds1 who was 20 months. We got to the part where Mrs Bunny says, "If we could have a baby now, How lovely that would be"
Ds1 turned around and patted my tummy. We hadn't told him that I was pg or that babies grew in tummies.

Maybe you're like me and mutter outloud without realising

[belgianmama]

NappiesLaGore, no I wasn't hopping from one leg to the other!
Wallace, I must admit that I thought at first that I must have been talking out loud to myself, but no I've paid attention to that since and it's not that.
Maybe it is just coincidence, because it doesn't happen very often. My mum came up with a theory it's because children's fontanelle doesn't close till their 6 and that leaves them open to other people's brainwaves! I've had to tell her that fontanelles close up much much earlier than that and that it probably isn't that!

all this talk (other threads) of trolls and wind-ups has me wondering a little (im so easliy taken in, me)... but;



i do think that we give ever so much away with body language and facial expression and that children pick up just about every deatil of what goes on around them - not just the stuff they react to, or things said to them... so they will often surprise us with what they know.but if this is true, and he is psychic, then i think its pretty wonderful. a bit unnerving for you, mind!

this happens to me with with ds too, one time i was in the kitchen, completely opposite end of the house to his room upstairs, when i nearly dropped something, and swore under my breath, for fear of waking up dd, who was sleeping in the next room. straight away i heard ds over the intercom from his room say oops mummy and laugh in his sleep. then continued to sleep for the next hour. quite spooky as it felt like he was in the room.
