“You’re fine”, “there’s nothing there”, “I don’t know what you’re talking about” …
Kids are HIGHLY intuitive. If they sense something is off, believe them. If they tell you they’re afraid of something, there’s a reason. And sometimes they can’t name the reason, but their spidey senses are tingling!
However…
If you unintentionally make them doubt themselves by saying things like I mentioned above, they will start having trust issues with their intuition.
And when they get older and feel that “uh-oh” feeling in their belly before they get in someone’s car…
or before they go out with their friends…
or when someone offers them something…
or when someone initiates intimacy forcefully…
You would want them to believe that feeling, right?
It starts now when they’re young.
The full conversation was:
We had just gotten in bed to read a book. She got up to turn the fairy lights off and when she crawled back in she said…
“Mama, we have to wash the sheets tomorrow, I feel bad energy on them.”
“Gotcha, what is it that you’re feeling?”
“I’m not sure but as soon as I got up on the bed, I knew it didn’t feel good.”
“Okay how about this? When we get up in the morning, we will wash the sheets first thing. And for now we will do a quick sage and put on our bubbles. How does that sound?”
“Sounds good!”
This is a normal conversation with us because I have never doubted her. She knows she can tell me when she senses something is off.
You know it doesn’t feel good being called “dramatic” or a “drama queen” or “you’re crazy”.
So why would you make your kid feel that way?
Trust them. ❤️
