Children Have Imaginary Friends

DivineSpirit by DivineSpirit Talking(June 2007) (rank 500+)
Most children have the ability to see beyond physical reality, especially in infancy. It all goes to conscious awareness on different level.

It's interesting to watch an infant's eyes as they follow something/someone in the room that is not physically seen by anyone else. Infants often laugh and respond
to whatever they are seeing which may be the spirit of the person who guided their soul into physical reality and is familiar.

Young children often have imaginary play friends, especially when there is no one around to physically play with. These 'imaginary friends' actually communicate with the child. Generally the imaginary friend/friends are harmless and the interaction ends as they child's physical consciousness slows down and gradually creates a pattern of returning to the physical body and staying at a lower level of frequency in order to function/perform their daily tasks in 3D. The older you get, the more grounded you have to be.

If the young child, generally below the age of 5, is having fun with the imaginary friend they are attracting, then things are positive. If the child is apprehensive or displays fear, professional help may be needed for the child.

Imaginary friends can also be animals with whom a child communicates telepathically.

Children generally love animals as the frequency of animals is generally not about 3D dramas, but about love and compassion. Pets can enhance positive emotions in children, especially at age 12-14, at puberty when anger rages and children lash out. Many children in this age group say they want to grow up and be veterinarians. Pets often bring, or teach children about, unconditional love no matter what the circumstances. They can be a survival mechanism for an emotionally challenged child.

At the end of the day ... don't many people have imagery friend they talk to, who go by different names ... God, Ascended Masters, Spirit Guides, Angels, other?

Re: Children Have Imaginary Friends

Good to share your thoughts on this. My mother, who is 78 now still clearly recalls her two friends. They stayed with her until about the age of 8. I find that there is generally a cut off age of about 4 but still deal with children as old as 12 who have them. And then you have the children who have the 'sight' and this may not leave at all. Recently I dealth with a child (age 8) whose imaginary friend was nasty and he was scared. we proved his 'power' to him and then he decided to slay his monster. In the end he decided to keep it as he was now the boss and could deal with him as he wanted. A friend had three friends and from the description they sounded like Goblin types but they were good to her. Both my boys had one - they shared - until 4. He was very tall, brown 'dress' as they said, long white hair and beard and blu eyes. This man actually 'caught' my eldest when he climbed over a 2 foot barricade and felt 12 feet down stairs. I was horrified as I watched this fall but he got up - no scratches at all. He said it's all right Mummy the man caught me. I also fell out of a fast moving a car at 18 months - not a scratch on me but I don't remember who caught me!

Re: Children Have Imaginary Friends

I know this well, my children when they were younger had friends  that they talked to. Angus had a friend called Gabrielle which was strange as we didn't know a Gabrielle so we put it down to him communicating to his guides (guardians). My other son had a Phillip and Samuel we didn't discourage it as they were not upset by them, we don't hear about them any more. As for the animals......Our dog has it down pat, let me in....give me your food...let me in the house....all she has to do is look at the kids ha-ha.

Great advice

Re: Children Have Imaginary Friends
My 8 yr old has had an imaginary friend since she could talk . . . It's name is "baby"

I was made to have her assessed by the Education Dept BUT it backfired on them because she was found to be a normal healthy and happy child who had a great imagination . . .

Cheers Kellz
