Hiya Friends!!


Welcome to a new Discussion topic at Paranormal Forum😛



Imaginary Friends


Do you have a child that has an imaginary friend?
Or maybe one of your friends or family members has a child who talks about their imaginary friend...?

Perhaps you may remember a movie called Drop Dead Fred. This movie was a humorous look at the relationship between a young girl and her mischievous, trouble making imaginary friend. Although the movie was fiction the basic concept is actually true.

According to psychologists it is normal, and quite common, for children to invent imaginary friends.

Most often an imaginary friend is a harmless product of a healthy, active imagination. However, there have been many cases where a child's relationship with an imaginary friend has proved to be problematic.

But what if the child's new friend is actually a ghost?
This can become a very dangerous situation for your child as the ghost, or spirit, may be malignant and wish to harm them.
In one case a young girl's imaginary friend nearly convinced her to jump out of a window from which she would have been very seriously hurt if not killed.



Time to discuss now😉

  • -- What are your views on this?
  • Do you know of a child who has an imaginary friend? Perhaps you yourself had an imaginary friend when you were young...??
  • Anything else you would love to add on this..?



Happy discussing!😊

Regards,



Created

hey shiju thats strange ...aakash another imaginary perosn of inmaginary friend...

gracie veryyyyy nice topic yar
yes i beleive that many ppl spe.children build some imaginary frends...but i never came across any kind of situaiton in my life myself..but yes i know a kid who had some imaginary frend with whom she used to play when alone ...but the problem sorted out with passage of time..now its fine.

yes sometimes these imag.frends cab b too dangerous n life stealing..if the problem becomes worse then i think serious steps shud b taken..like giving time to children so that they may not feel alone....because i beleive that this img.freind situation occurs when a kid starts feeling alone n no1 to play with..

ok so this is really freaky... i have this friend who has an imaginary friend.. it started in grade 8..
she didn't tell me herself but we found out from another friend. anyways so that person she talks to
is a girl from her previous birth. apparently this is my friend's second birth n she has reincarnated
or something 😕 she knows this because her "friend' told her...
and this friend of mine is so quiet... she barely ever talks n shes almost antisocial.. its unhealthy..
me n her other friends think shes always talking to that person in her head and maybe thats why she is so quiet..
we want her to visit a doc but its so hard to bring it up

nice and interesting topic
i dont really know any1 who has a imaginary friend.
i think that this is most common in children who are mostly alone but mayb im wrong. i dont think that havin imaginary friend can harm anyone but sometimes mayb it can because it can get serious and if a person who has a imaginary friend are so into them nd make up things that are not gd
