Daughter says she’s seeing things?

Question

Hey everyone, my 4 year old daughter came up to me tonight and said “mommy I want to tell you something, but I don’t know if I want to tell you cause it’s really weird” I said you can tell me anything! So she went on saying she feels like someone’s behind her and we she turns to look it’s gone. I said it could be your big imagination that you have! But she said no mommy it’s real! She also said it looks like the beast from beauty & the beast. And it camouflages and hides. I felt sick to my stomach after hearing her talk about it. I feel so sad she’s saying this cause I feel she’s too young to even know about this or mention it. I don’t know. I don’t know what to do or what to say to her. Has anyone experienced this with their child? If so please let me know what could be going on! 
Thank you ♥️

Accepted Answer

If there’s one thing scary movies have taught us, it’s to believe our children when they say things like this.

Answer

If she says she’s seeing something like the Beast from the movie, that probably tells you where this fear may have sprouted from. Maybe not though. 
I would consider having her talk to a school counselor about it. Just a nice sit-down lunch and chat as to not scare her. If it’s anything more than an active imagination, the counselor will likely have further recommendations.

I’ve heard children have a third eye bc they’re so pure & innocent & as they get older, it goes away.

Answer

Honestly kids are often more in tune with energies/entities. I was that kid who would see/feel/hear things, and my parents told me they were just nightmares. It wasn't until later in my life that I realized they weren't dreams. Just let your daughter know that she can always come to you, that you are a safe non judgemental space for her to talk about whats going on. Sometimes just having someone to talk to about everything is the biggest help💕☮

Answer

I used to see things like that when i was younger. I never told anyone because I didnt want people to think i was crazy, and i felt like maybe i was crazy. Now as an adult, i believe that I was seeing some sort of demonic presence and was under spiritual attack. My family wasn't very religious, we'd just occasionally go to church. I ended up in a deep depression and was suicidal from age 9 until my 20s. Please don't brush this off as just her imagination. If it only happens after she's watched/read something scary, then it could be as simple as her imagination. But if it happens unprovoked, then I suspect something more is going on: either spiritual attack or/and mental illness.

Answer

Smudge the house with palo santo. Our neighbors son was seeing things and would have trouble the nights his dad was gone. My husband spoke to the wife gave her some palo santo and they haven’t been having any issues since .

Answer

She could be intuitive.

Answer

Believe her. Always believe her. Even if it seems like it’s impossible believe her. Trust me. The one time you don’t believe her and treat it like it’s nothing will be the last time she opens up. As the kid who felt like this and did this. Please believe her. Turns out I had manic depression and some other stuff but that’s not important rn. Please believe her. Just ask her what he/she looks like and then ask a doctors opinion and say that you believe her because she’s too young to know about things

Answer

When i was 6 I use to use a demon in my moms room.. it would hide in the closet and appear to me and my mom only... 
i was young but my mom had already taught me how to pray.. so believe it or not I use to pray lol it never did anything to me and we ended up moving and nothing like that happened again. 
I never told my mom till I was a teenager so you’re lucky you have a smart Little one who is willing to talk about it.: I recommend you ask her more about how she feels .. and questions like when and where .. because sometimes demons or spirits as people call them can be harmful if you’re not spiritually protected. 
My other advice is just pray pray pray !

Answer

Yeah she probably did. My sister at 5 told us what happened in the house we were living in at the time.
