Hi A Mcnally;
I have had a few conversations with my daughter since she was two about her past life. When she was born she had a lack of pigmentation on her chest about the size of a quarter. When she was two-three she told me about a dream that she was having where she was shot in her previous life.
I had her talk about it and explain as much as possible to me as she could. I would write down everything so that we could go over it if she wanted to add anything later. Then we discussed the fact that it was a past life and she could let it go.
She still has the same spot that does not tan, same size and it has basically stayed in the same place. She is now going on 18. The depigmentation is in the same spot that she said she was shot.
At two-three years of age their imaginations are not active enough to make these things up. Ask as many questons as he will permit. Let him know it is okay to talk to you about it. Also explain that others may not understand and to ask you first before they say anything to someone else. Ask him about other dreams, other lives. This is a wealth of information at your finger tips that will diminish if you don't keep it active. Even my daughter doesn't remember everything she has told me. But I do
By all means let him know this is normal, and anyone that doesn't understand just doesn't want to. I always felt if they are old enough to ask the question, they are old enough for you to start introducing the answer. As parents it is up to us to feed the information slowly enough so they don't get scared, but fast enough so that they don't lose interest.
Enjoy this time, it gives you an insight to your child that only you can share with them.
