my daughters outburst.

yesterday i was talking to my daughter about her day at school(she' 6) and she was telling about everything she did and then suddenly just out of the blue said when we die we go to heaven and God fixes us and we get to come back as babies. this surprised me for she has no concept of this. i had only been studying this a week and had just bought carol's book last sunday. i'm wondering if she is remembering about past lives. she told me when her grandma and great-grandma dies God will fix them and they will come back as babies and she wonders who they will be. she also said she wonders who she'll be when she gets to come back as a baby. please let me know something.
 
Ccouey,

Your daughter is only six years old, hardly more than a baby and she is already wondering about her NEXT life?

Since she is so young, I'd be wondering why
her current life isn't of more interest. It
would really worry me if she continued to
bring up the subject of her Next life.
 
I don't know that I'd worry an awful lot about it. Personally I think it runs the same as 'When I get bigger I want to be a _____.' My son talks a lot about how after he dies, and gets to come back he wants to be a girl so he can be a mommy. As a matter of fact he told his babysitter this, and now she thinks we're all nutcases.

Hi CC...
What an interesting little soul your daughter is!
When I first read Kateet's reply stating she was a wee bit concerned about your youngster's anticipation of future lives, I thought...Hmmmmm....It would never have occured to me, but, I know next to nothing about all this...so maybe.
Then I read Galadriel's response and digested that for a bit.
My gut feeling is that I think it's beautiful that your child can both look back and toward the future with such confidence and ease.
And what an adventure for you!
Enjoy every minute. ---G
 
P.S. to Galadriel...
What does your tag line about alignment mean? I'm new to this site and it intrigues me.
I like it....but I don't know why. ---G
 
The line comes from role-play games. In this particular instance, AD&D. There are 9 Combinations of alignments. Lawful, Neutral, Chaotic; Good, Neutral, Evil. Take one from the first group and one from the second to get your character. Chaotic Evil is about as bad as you can get, doing things just to be mean.

We haven't had any large/unexpected car repair problems since I came across this line on the net, and started using it. Which is highly unusual for us. Much like this computer nothing but problems until we changed the display numbers on the front. Where it used to say 200 for whatever reason,(I think the friend who changed it for us said it was hertz) it now reads 666 and the computer works like a dream.

gypsy tanks for your kind words about my daughter. she a very well adjusted child full of life and very active. it just took me off gaurd when she said this. i din't know what to think. i have never disscused reincarnation with her and hadn't plan on it cause i didn't think she could understand this certain matter. though i haven't disscuss this with her, i wonder if i should. or just let the matter be and let her come to me when she's ready.
 
Interesting! You might want to ask her what she wants her next life to be, or what she wants from this life. You might also be interested to know (find out) what it was like for her in her last life and what God fixed in her.

Over a year ago I was at the mall and saw a friend of mine from high school (hadn't seen her in five years easy). It was really strange when I looked into her baby's eyes because I'm sure it was my late grandmother. It sure is a strange event when that happens.

If you have more on this I would be really interested in finding out.

Take Care, -rinkrat.
 
my daughter has said only one other thing abou this subject is that when she coes back as a baby she wants me to name her Julie. my daughter's name is Leigha(lea). other than that she has said nothing to me about it. i haven't pressed this, cause i don't know if i should and i don't know how.i'm not worried about her i'm just so surpised she knows this much and that she already has a name picked out and everything. i don't know, maybe she knows more than i thought or maybe she's just talking kid talk. yur opions and ideas are aprreciated and i would like to hear more from ya'll.
 
Dear CCouey,
Take heart in that your daughter feels so at ease to be this open with you. It's a darn sight better than being told "you're cute, and have a wonderful imagination"...been there, done that...ain't going back.
Be supportive the best way you know how, and we'll be here to support you.

To Ccouey and All,

I'm still somewhat affected by my own son's two year worry that he would die when he was four years old even though he is almost fifteen now.

After he turned five and relaxed about it, I felt better, but I guess a parent never quite gets over a child's grim and frightening pronouncement about his own future.

I would then think that if your daughter is comfortable and unconcerned, rather just curious instead, there won't be anything to worry about. It is also good that you communicate well with her. Never stop listening to what she has to say.

I think the best thing to do for a child who has past life memories is to simply listen. Althouh it may be interesting for you, try not to "push" her into remembering anything. It will come if the memory is needed. Just be supportive of her and her memories, thats the best thing she could ask for.

I wouldn't be concerned at her saying that. It's true and all she is doing is being curious and wondering.

It is actually not that rare for childern to remember past lives. They have not yet been exposed to the "un-teaching" our society imposes on them and because they are so young, they don't have as many memories to cloud it over.

Give her a hug for me

Warmest Regards,

Peter Vanderzwet
 
Kat, it is quite possible your child "graduated" at four years old during his/her most recent incarnation. That could be the reason for the apprehension.

Take care,

Peter Vanderzwet
