Getting ready for a party, we say goodnight to the kids and leave them with the babysitter, leave the house and get in the car, only for our cat to run out in front of us and to be knocked down, he died right in front of us :( he gets taken to the vets and we go back inside all upset etc and told the babysitter in private what has just happened, she kind of went white and said that's really strange because the eldest child, before we left said our cat is going to die soon, it was a random comment out of know where and it was even before we left the house. Asked him later y he said it and he said he doesn't know, just that cats don't live forever Confused
He has also said to my friend that she had a baby in her belly when we was on holiday, she conceive her baby boy on the same holiday Confused
Kids say the strangest things, anybody got anything to add.

We moved house last year. Got up one morning with DS, aged 4, and we started to walk from the bedroom to the living room. DS suddenly stops dead a couple of metres from the living room and stares straight ahead. I encourage him to walk on, which he does but doesn't say anything.

About 10 minutes later he says quietly, "Mummy, I stopped out there because a man just walked through that wall into the living room and then through the other wall outside."

I asked him later if it was a dream and he said yes, but he didn't look too convinced himself!

I don't really believe in ghosts, by the way, but it was kind of freaky at the time!!

My DS told me that we are always together - he always makes sure I am his Mummy. I was his Mummy the last few times he can remember. He was a girl last time, apparently.

Creepy but I assume (hope!) he just has a vivid imagination

I don't tend to believe in reincarnation but Iv heard a few stories now where kids have been able to recount past lives etc it's a nice thought though.

After my dad died, my DD2 who was about 5 was chatting away to herself in her room, and I asked who she was talking to. She said “Oh, just Grandpa. It’s okay Mum, I’ve told him that he has to be nice to me now because I’m the only one who can see him.” He was an absolute arsehole of a man. I don’t believe in ghosts, but I said then and there that if I spotted a single sign of my daughter being manipulated by him, I’d be heading to the first available exorcist, as he’d done more than enough damage while alive. I’d prefer it if he went back to wherever he’d come from and never ever come back.

I have nothing to add but would like to read!

We were packing for a trip overseas to a family wedding. 12h flight with the entire family including my parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins.
DS and DD were watching us pack and DS (age 3) all uf a sudden said "Everyone is going to die." In a very calm quiet tone.
DH and I: HmmConfused What did you say honey?
DS: Everyone will die in the water.
Me: Who will die?
DS: You, daddy, granma, me,..
And he continued naming random family members.

I told everyone at the airport Grin Made lots of us uncomfortable.
Nobody died thankfully.

Off the top of my head...
"Mama. I dream I saw a cow with my face"

"Mum I've found a head on the garden"!

When I was pregnant with dd ds was 5. As I was putting him to bed one night I said "goodnight, see you in the morning" as usual and he said "no mummy, not in the morning, you'll wake me up before then so you can have the baby". Sure enough, I went into labour a couple of hours later and we had to wake him up to take him to IL's to go to the hospital.

These are great, kids are strange but where do they get the ideas from Confused
