Do kids see more than adults? …and of course, in my somewhat superstitious way, I mean ghostly presences of someone or something else? Do they have the ability, even at the age of 1 months like my son Ayden, to sense feelings in other people? I find it absolutely amazing that when Ayden hears mom and dad raise voices a bit or get a little edgy, so does he.. And likewise during happy times he is at ease. If a child, who only is able to find his tongue at this point, can interpret moods of his parental figures, how would it be unlikely that he too would sense the feelings, spirits, or …things…that adults choose not to see?
That question only holds weight though if you’d enter the matter with the pre-ordained thought that there are ‘things’ like ghosts out there to see to begin with. Kids see them. Adults really don’t. And adults tell kids they are all wrong.. No monsters under the bed. No spirit in the closet.. nothing watching you through the window.
So adults say…perhaps saying only what they want to believe.
