Chuck's post (above) hits most of the major points about children's past life memories. I want to emphasize his "fast response" point. When a child first makes statements about a possible past life memory, it is so important that you engage with them--once you get over your initial shock, or...

We are so grateful to our moderators who have kept the Forum going all of these years. I met Debbie in 1997 in San Francisco. It was right after Children's Past Lives was published, and I was speaking at a conference for fellow past life therapists. Debbie approached me, and told me about her...

Welcome to the Forum! After a very long absence, I will be back on the Forum to answer questions about possible children's cases, as I did in the earlier days of the Forum. Back when we started in 1997, this was the only Forum on the Internet that focused on children's past life memories. Steve...

Hello, All! I'm so grateful that there was so much support for this new, "modern" incarnation of the Forum, and that Debbie, Tinkerman, and many others have kept it going for 25 years! Thanks to all of you!! Over the years, some things change (like the improved software), and many remain the...

With huge gratitude, and a little sadness, I'm announcing that Debbie is retiring from her role as Executive Director, Grand Leader, and Head Goddess of the Reincarnation Forum. She's been the driving force and inspired leadership of the Forum ever since she going in April, 1997. The Forum...

Suuny 1994 and Summer785, Do either of you know if Atlas's former family had been notified about Atlas before the show aired? And was the former family harassed? Please tell me what you know.

Again, thanks to Debbie and all of the moderators who have gone above and beyond to keep the Forum going. Without Debbie's leadership, there would be no Forum. I just want to make that clear! Also, we've had such wonderful moderators who have come and gone, and some who have stuck around for...

What a nice surprise to start our 22nd year! Many thanks to Deborah and all of the moderators who have kept the Forum going! We appreciate all who have supported the Forum over the years--either through serving as moderators, or as active members, or those who have donated money towards...

If a memory is coming up spontaneously, as it is for your daughter, I suggest that you and your husband read my first book, Children's Past Lives. I offer advice on how to talk to a young child who is having spontaneous memories. Your husband is right: you really can't regress a child that...

Welcome to the Forum. Please know that what you and your son are experiencing is not that unusual. As you can see from the many posts on this Forum, young children do remember previous lives, and are sometimes confused by what happened before, and their present-life experiences. You can help...

Hi Amarillas, Is your daughter still troubled by her memories? Does she have any behaviors that connect to the story she has told? Abandonment issues, separation anxiety, anything that might relate to the past life event? If so, let us know. There are ways you can help her.

Welcome to the Forum! Just to get some clarity on your situation: Are you thinking that your son is your uncle reborn? You said that Chris was your grandmother's child, and that your Mum (grandmother) took care of your son. Is that correct? Is this the same person who recently died...

It might be interesting to get some basic French CDs and see how she responds to them. It is likely that she was a French- speaking person in a past life, probably her most recent one. That would explain her unlearned ability. You might want to casually show her images of France--the Eiffel...

Iris, There is no need to defend Dr. Tucker. As we all agree, he is doing excellent work, as did Dr. Stevenson. His approach is different, that's all. No one is disputing his qualifications, and no one implied that he's treating the children as "lab rats." That's your interpretation. I...

Iris, In my first meeting with Ian Stevenson and Jim Tucker, in the late 90s, I asked Dr. Stevenson privately why he never wrote about children healing as a result of talking about their past life memories, as I saw with my own children and others. He said, "You can't prove it." My reply...

Eric, I wanted to jump in here and comment. In the case of the child who remembers being a 9-11 fireman, the mother had identified who the child was in a previous life, and she shared that information with me privately. She did not want to share that information with the public before she...

It's good to hear from you again! So glad to hear that Steven is doing better. It sounds as if his memories are fading, or he's letting go of the painful feelings and now feels safe. I just read your other post about your daughter's memories. Now that you're experienced, you can talk to her...

I've been in touch with the producer of "Ghost Inside My Child" about this mother and child. The producer gave the mother my contact information, but I haven't heard from her yet. In fact, I've offered my help to any of the families since this show began. No one has contacted me. You'd think...

One more thing that just occurred to me: The image of the playpen is a touchstone to that lifetime, making it real for both of you. Perhaps it's providing grounding for that other experience for your son, so he can begin to differentiate that experience from the present. By seeing that image...

UKwood, We do carry the energy of unresolved past life issues with us. They can manifest physically, emotionally, and mentally. Once the memories are resolved--talked about, let go of--the emotions, which are usually bundled with the physical symptoms, can be healed. If the memories are...
