My child has a badge that sees ghosts?

Lighthearted!

DS 4, has a badge he calls “birdie friend.” I may post a photo later! It’s a badge with a bird on.

Birdie Friend seems to have the gift of the “sight!” “Birdie Friend says Bob and Rose are here mummy, they like to have tea with us. Bob and Rose are DH’s grandparents who died many years ago.

“Birdie Friend says the men who lived upstairs looked like you mummy when their faces burned off.” We used to live in a former military hospital and I had a sheet mash on my face! The ward upstairs had indeed been a burns/plastics ward!

“Mummy, Birdie Friend says the end is coming soon.”

😂😱😨

Going back, is there any way he could know the names of your relatives?
I am open minded btw.
The burnt faces is very weird tho.
The badge makes it all the more creepy, but at that age they can latch on to things for comfort.

Honestly get the priest in

book for devon...that way youre half way there should anything happen!

Probably reduces our chances of 7 days’ rain too, though we had our wettest UK holiday ever in neighbouring Dorset about 10 years ago. 😩 There’s a reason we usually go to the Med.

My brother when aged about 2 told my mother that he’d died when his motorbike crashed, when my mother gently probed a bit further my brother said it was when he was 21.

My brother is now a strapping 40 year old but my mother never let him have a motorbike, she simply wouldn’t entertain the idea.

Are you alive op? It was obvious that bf wanted to sit on your lap because he knew you were bitching about him on mn. Just for the record I think you are very handsome bf and would love to be your friend but we have 3 cats so it mightn't be safe for you here

op come back!

I'm starting to wonder if there's been a terrible "accident" in which only OPs DS and BF have walked away from unscathed....

We survived the night! DH is taking DS and BF to his cousin’s birthday party. I am staying home to do a uni assignment.

I left BF on my bedside table, woke up and he had somehow fallen into bed...

This has given me the major heebie jeebies!

😮😮😮

Also shamelessly placemarking!

It's like he's heard "Messiah" (but heard it as "messy") somewhere in conjunction with "the end is coming". My son did this, but then the play groups he went to a couple of times were Christian. But as you said, your son hasn't been exposed to that....maybe BF has been talking to him and that's where he's heard it from

My middle dd has come out with a few odd things. She's a very scatty-brained child but every now and then with have moments of compete focus and clarity. Once, when she was 3, we took her to dh's home country in the far East. She's never been before. We went to a temple and she'd seen other temples, but at this particular one she stopped, turning around with her mouth open. "Oh! I remember this place! I've been here before, a long time ago before I'd as born!". We were like, "what? What do you mean??" But by then she'd skipped off. Another time, she suddenly turned to me and said "i had another daddy once, before this daddy. He was before I was born here".

Going to do a house cleansing whilst they are out and think about getting one of the chaplains from DH’s work in. I’m Catholic.

I was going to make DS a dippy egg because he loves dipping but Birdie Friend wanted fish apparently “all melty with cheese mummy.” So he ended up having a tuna cheese toastie which he’s never had before. BF got pushed into the toastie “to feed” and apparently he loved it.

If any pigeons hit your window it's recruiting in the none spirit world, run

Anyone else concerned that BF keeps saying he 'needs to feed'

DS thinks he means food, but what if he actually means...

@TheFormidableMrsC
I had a very disturbing experience staying at a large house that had been used as a field hospital during the WWII. I saw a ghost, a man, who rushed through the room but saw me and realised I could see him and was absolutely startled, he looked horrified that I could actually see him and carried on through a dresser and disappeared.

That sounds more like a time slip, I expect he thought he was seeing a ghost too which is why he looked horrified.

Has this guy showed up yet?

OP as you're Catholic, I would recommend saying the St Michael prayer and sprinkling some holy water around. I'm sure a priest would be happy to bless the house too.

Get a priest in ASAP. I'm not religious but this is just downright spooksville! Idb freaking out. Also just watched The Prodegy on NF.

Dd3 talked about her "family who lived in the woods" until she was about 6.
It creeped me out.

When I was little, not long after we moved into our house, I had a fever and my mother said I kept talking about the old man and lady I could see, and their nice cat. I was "stroking" the cat and despite mother not being able to see any cat she said my hand every single time went back to the exact same place in the air, as though I was actually stroking a cat. An old couple had lived in the house before their death. Freaked her out enough she had the house blessed and I never saw them or the cat again.
Once also aged about 15 I was on a youth trip and the place we were staying used to be a military hospital. I didn't know this at the time. I'd gone to bed early, everyone else was a few floors down doing an activity. I heard someone going along the corridor opening doors. Until ours opened and I couldn't see anyone. On they carried. At breakfast when I told everyone I was informed that it used to be a military hospital and people have reportedly seen a nurse going along the corridor, checking on her patients.

@TheJoxter Yes, I agree with you and said much the same in a subsequent post. Most peculiar. The property I refer to had a lot of activity and the occupier eventually moved out because of it. There was no peace in this place and an atmosphere of sadness. It needed an intervention!

My daughter quite often told me she was glad she chose to be born with me and she's glad she picked me to be her Mum.

I used to ask her how she picked and she used to just say "you know before I was a seed in your tummy I had to pick you to go to you"

OP, Catholic here too. I’d go and get some holy water and have a liberal sprinkle around. Give BF a bath in it. I’d also ask priest to come and bless the house before this escalates.

When DS was 2 or 3 we drove past a graveyard. He asked what it was and I explained about people being buried when they died. He replied “oh, you mean like when I was hiding and the diggers came and started digging and I couldn’t get out and I was shouting and shouting but no one came and I died? I understand.”
Erm, no... not like that...
He also used to talk to his grandad who died before he was born, and grandad would reply using phrases he used (but that we don’t).
He and my other ds used to pass toys/ say hello to a little ghost boy in our house (I could see the boy- I do see things sometimes) until they were around 4 and 5.

@PlomBear you started this saying lighthearted. THIS IS NOT LIGHTHEARTED!!!!!

I’m glad I’m sat here reading this on a beautiful sunny morning!
