Children

[lonewolf]

if you ever consider having a child, would you bring it up with todays scocial impacts, or would you teach it about spirit and psionic abilites?

i know when i have a child it will come into this world fully aware and able to do what i can now. I know this becuase i was told by spirit. That and if you look at the trends of the age that children are showing there abilites, its getting younger and younger.. they are comin out more aware and with more wisdom. its only natural to say that our generation will concive a child with more awareness than there partents.. to think that we are more aware than other to bring a child into this world is a wonderful gift. i just hope i can find someone who is upto my statuts and the knowlage and expericen i know and have had.
i really would love to meet a girl my age who is into this... hehe... maybe one day i might travel the world and come vist you all.. hopefully i will be able to save enugh money this year to goto canada and maybe some parts of america. so who knows...

but anyhow, what would you do with your child? would you bring it up and teach it, or just tell them its just there imagination *sighs*..

feel free to let others know

hmmmmm im not quite sure- if a kid went to school and told other kids it would get picked on so.... but what you say is right- kids are more aware and more wise and are discovering their abilities earlier.
As i would probably still be actively practicing psi etc if he/she asked i would explain it but let them come to their own decision, i would probably let them decide and if they decided it was true and wanted to no more and tell them all they wanted to no. Its all depends- ill probably react completely differently when the time comes!

I would and plan on teaching my kids at an early age about their powers. I would teach them to practice their powers in ways that most people would not notice. My kids would learn that while they are not like the others, they are still good kids and should respect everyone and their abilities. As they grow older I will offer more in depth training, should they want it. I will not force my kids to do anything, but support them in whatever they decide. I will be the parent my parents never were.

I'd wait until my children "awaken" so-to-speak. By awakening I mean the time that their abilities begin to emerge and are psionically active (whether they know it or not). For me that was when I was 6 or 7 years old. I didn't start practice until I was 12 and a half. Hopefully, they'll let me know about it. Either that or I could start from when they're young by constantly show casing my abilities (using them in everyday settings).

An example would be turning on the TV via electro-kinesis. Or maybe I would have my wife use PK on the doors to make them open (if she has that ability developed to that extent). Or when I begin to notice signs of psionic development at a young age (maybe when their still infants), I'll encourage it. An example would be to say that your kid is a telekinetic and can supposedly open doors via PK. Everytime you notice that you give your kid a bannana (or whatever edible that is healthy and they seem to enjoy eating). I would probably do a mixture of all of the above and maybe more. The idea (for me at least) is to have my children develop to great extents. If I start having them actively practice from a young age (infant or toddler or kid) and they continue, they'd be ahead of most other psions/psychics their age.

Now with the question of them speaking to others about it... I'd tell them not to reveal anything until they believe that they've reached the stage in development where they have confidence in their abilities and control (they can prove it over 90% of the time or at least 90%). That's all I'll tell them. If they can prove it at least 90% of the time then they are free to go ahead tell others about their special gifts.

I would tell my spawn everything I knew, from the time they could listen. Tell them about reality. The truth. And the fact that other people will most likely not accept these truths. I will also have to educate them on different religions and world views, as well as the things most people DO accept, so they know what to expect from others.

hmm i think telling my child early on would have a significant social impact on lil vanish. so i would wait til thy werea bout my age - 15 so that they could fully understand things, and only tell their closest friends, not blab to everyone.

[avaron]

well if i had child ahhh........ which i'll never have sorry i just really dont like children they noisy and annoying but i would tell them at an early age so they can train and learn children are easier to teach at a young age

I made myself a promise, I'd bring my child aware. It's hard enough dealing with me, who should have been brought up aware...because of my abilites are out of control and I'm slowly getting it under control. I won't deny any child I ever have a part of themselves. Love would agree with this.

[vanish]

all true but have you thought about the social impact on your non existent children?

[JediKaren]

Yes, but after we've lived a life where we have gone ignored, we don't want our childred to live like that. I think not knowing about your abilities and living not knowing why you are different and strange has more of an social impact that knowing. But we'll find out in the next 50 years what's right.

[avaron]

hmmm too true :/

[thoth]

I'm not gona have children untill I find somebody at least as spiritrually developed as me--but assuming I do...

I would homeschool!!!
That would solve all the little social problems. This way I could incorporate academic, physical, and spiritrual training and development as I saw fit, according to the situation and how my kid(s) are feeling.

[avaron]

well kids are not things that we can mold as easy as most think they will go their own way and getting them to believe in what you believe is very hard mostly when they come of age

[thoth]

Thats why I added "according to.....how my kid(s) are feeling"

[vanish]

mmm but i believe that you shouldnt force your beliefs on people who dont want them. people these days are both open and ignorant. we all have our beliefs, may they be mixed or originally traditional. if you home skool, how will your child make friends. and anyway, whose normal?
