The Rhine Research Center, which studies
parapsychology and was started at Duke University in the 1930s, states that
psychic abilities in children run in families, and is more prevalent in
extroverted children. Movies have their own take, with psychic children
portrayed as otherworldly and odd. In real life, children are often not
encouraged to show their true nature. Instead, their menu says to follow along
and excel in expected ways. Intuitive children need more.
People always ask me, what were you like
as a child? Those closest to me would say, shy. I only talked when an adult
asked me a direct question. Grownups seemed tall and foreboding, with agendas I
couldn’t understand. That slowly changed as I became a performer and found my
voice, but I do consider myself an introvert.
As a music teacher, I’ve found that the children
who truly connect to music, not just the ones who play all the correct notes,
are the ones who have intuitive traits.
So what do you do if you have an
intuitive child? First, remember that children have fewer barriers, so they can
be more intuitive than most adults. Second, let your child roam. That means
with their mind, their imagination, and even their bodies. Expose them to new
experiences and believe in their fantasies and words. Third, let them be who
they are and don’t put them in a thought box. Uniqueness is a large part of
paranormal ability.
