Forums · 2nd. Experience?
I believe my last posting about my own experience was Sept. 8. An exerpt to remind the new....
"While our little family exists in near harmony, it is to the attention of our daughter that we fear could be in harm's way? We have innocently questioned her of anything, sounds, feelings, and while no suspicion has been raised in her as of yet, certainly this cannot continue without her experiencing some of the same?"
Which brings me now to my new problem of such. A little background first:
As of my last posting, thanks to the advice of 'Peg' and stern 'Tsk Tsk' to be precise, of 'KellKell'; I took pictures with my HP Photosmart 620, and my older 315 all around the duplex. Nothing out of the ordinary.
The advice of 'Connie' was next, talking aloud in the hallway, making my way into both bedrooms, talking as loudly as I could without silencing myself in embarrassment, paraphrased, "...if we are to co-exist together within the same space, civility is the key...".
This was Sept.15 and nothing out of the ordinary has been seen, smelled, felt, tasted, or heard since. Until this weekend and last night.

I returned from a family reunion of sorts late Sunday night appx. 12:30am, and my fiance`, Andrea was awake, waiting to tell me about our daughters little experience. Apparently as she was going to bed at 9:00pm-9:15pm, she felt a 'push' on her shoulder. She came downstairs crying. When she showed on Andrea's body where, it was a little tap of the fingers on her shoulder, nothing more. Children exaggerate as they do, but this was enough to emote tears, albeit in fear or pain.
By Monday she had all but forgotten Sunday nights happenings, and everything was fine. After school she took a nap on the couch watching Hamtaro? when I moved her upstairs to her room. About 10 minutes later she came downstairs crying, saying she had seen a scary face in the TV. Instantly I thought it had been a simple nightmare but given my current status I had to mention this in case it is not so.
Wednesday morning (This Morning), what prompted me to write here once more, is that while getting her dressed for school, she told me she heard breathing near her while she was waking up. Andrea has already left for work at this time, so it could not have been her. I was awake and downstairs, getting a quick lunch together so it could not have been me. The cat's were outside at the time in question and so leaves them out the equation. When I asked her to copy what she heard, she took a deep breathe in, and then let it out loudly. Eerily, it reminded me of the time I lay in bed and heard that familair 'sigh' of breath.
Time for me to drive off into the sunrise; any new information, opinions, and the like will be greatly appreciated to my circumstance.

Jase,
A couple of things could be going on here. Your questioning may have awakened your daugter's imagination or it has made her realize that these things are out of the ordinary for you. Did you ask her what she thought had pushed her shoulder and who she thought was breathing in her ear?
First of all since the talk you had with the spirit in the hall seemed to help for a little while, have a talk with the presence in your daughters room (of course while she's not around) and tell it that it is upsetting her and that it should leave her alone. Did you tell it to come to you in your dreams if it needs to communicate something?
The TV is interesting. On GhostStudy.com they have pictures submitted almost monthly that show some presence in the TV while they are turned off. If the TV is in her room, maybe you can place it in a cabinet that can be closed when she's not watching.
If you take more pictures, make sure you tell the spirit that if it wants in the picture to stand in front of you and if it doesn't then stand behind you. Also, in addition to the pictures, maybe you could use a baby monitor or set up a hidden recorder in your daughter's room to see if anything comes through.
I've also heard that if you ask a presence questions it can increase the activity. Keep your talks on an instructional level of how you can exist together.
If none of this helps, you might want to bless your home and ask the presence to move into the light. If you choose to do this, make sure it is done with all the closet/cabinet/atic doors and drawers open - this leaves no place for the presence to hide.

I don't have kids,but in my experience,if you express fear or disbelief she may cease to tell you things.A shared experience of a personal boogeyman defeat or a family heirloom embellished with ghost fighting powers may give great comfort and courage.Something to say a prayer with at night and to hold on to when she's afraid.Along with the suggestions of the other members may help turn things around.Good luck & Hugs!
Hi Jase,
I did what I call a mini-blessing, using the blessing according to my faith that Connie has posted for us all. (many different ones)
I had a couple spirits here that liked bothering my husband when I wasn't home.
I am a sensitive and had a very short talk with these spirits. "You are upsetting my huband and I wish it to stop, please. If there is something I can do for you, come to me, thank you." That was the extent of the conversation.
I am assuming there was nothing I could do for them, but the activity as far as my husband stopped.
Kids do have over-active imaginations, is it possible the baby overheard you speaking of this? Kids can take something and make a mountain out of a mole hill. I raised three sons, I know.
Just try your hardest to keep this from your child and encouraging her with questions......there goes the imagination again.
And I always ask folks to remember, they most usually are either just as or more scared of what has happened to them than we are.
Always be polite.
Other than that I totally agree with Connie.
Hope we helped Jase.

Hi Hallow!
Hon we are all just trying to help! =)
This week alone I recommended something one of the girls here did. He nephew sensed spirits around him at her home and she made him a bottle of "Ghost Be Gone" out of plain water and it did the trick! Anyone remember that?
I thought that was so cool to calm a young one, I passed it along to a friend who is having a similair problem right now.
In these cases sometimes you just don't know what will work.
Hugs to all!

Jase,
I have to agree with Peg and Connie. I can't think of anything to really add to what they have already said.
I also agree with Hallowseve. You definitely want your daughter to come to you when these incidents occur rather then hiding them. I also think that Hallowseve had another great idea of just doing something that will help your daughter deal with being scared. Wether is be sharing a story, or giving her something with supposed ghost fighting powers. Anything that would make her feel more comfortable.
Definitely keep us posted as to how things are going!
