Tarot cards for a 6 year old?!

Hi All,

So, my ex dropped off dd who is 6 after having her overnight, with a present. A pack of tarot cards. Now, without wishing to offend anyone or their beliefs, what does everyone think?

They are not kiddie style cards, and he's told her to pick one each day and it will tell her what her day will be like. So far she's picked "the devil" and "lovers"! I for one think she's too young for them and whilst I understand we're all different, I feel like she should only use them under the supervision of her dad who apparently is very much into them. Dd is asking me questions that I can't answer and also got a bit upset at the devil one, understandably.

I'm here because I have no end of trouble with ex anyway, is this worth a barney or not?

Any advice gratefully received!

Really glad you talked to him OP - yes, maybe he was seeing if this was something you'd explode over and he could get more drama and use out of it? (In which case a calm quiet "don't mind but do it at your place" possibly derailed him a bit.)

Even if he was motivated by the best of share my beliefs with my daughter intentions, it was poorly done. Idiot.

And yep - a bit of reading so you can help her handle whatever things she might be exposed to haphazard ways would be good. Good luck! Smile
