My ds is 11 and a half (with global delay) I was chatting to my niece on msn about things that scared us. My poor ds is TERRIFIED of daddy long legs to the point where he screams for me whenever he sees one........ What are the things like that that scare your children?

dd2 (18months) isn't scared of anything. She's a right little so and so at times and it would be nice if she had the slightest fear respect for me!!
DD1 (2.5 years) is terrified of Mark Speight from SMARTeenies. Screams when he comes on.

DD1 who is 4 & therefore knows it all,says that she isn't scared of anything.Not dinosaurs,because they are all dead & not ghosts because they aren't real.She was wide eyed with amazement to find out that her 10 year old friend,whom she idolizes,is cared of Dr Who.
