What is the creepiest thing your young child has ever said to you?
'I was tucking in my two year old. He said "Good bye dad". I said, "No, we say good night.' He said "I know, but this time it's goodbye." Had to check on him a few times to make sure he was still there.'
'My 3 year old daughter stood next to her new born brother and looked at him for awhile then turned and looked at me and said, "Daddy its a monster.. We should bury it"
'While changing my daughter in front of the open closet door. She kept looking around me and laughing. I asked her waht was so funny. She said, 'The man." to which I replied "What man?" She then pointed at the closet and said "the man with the snake neck." I turn around and hnothing was there. I'm afraid to look into the history of my house to see if anyone hung themselves in the closet'
'Not to me, but to his grandmother. He was cuddling with her and being very sweet (he was about 3 atm). He takes her face in his hands, and brings his face closer to hers, then tells her that she's very old and will die very soon. Then he makes a point of looking at the clock'
'Daddy, remember that time we died?'
'I was sound asleep, and at around 6am I was woken up by my 4 year old daughter's face inches from mine. She looked right into my eyes and whispered, "I want to peel all your skin off'. The backstory here is I had been sunburned the previous week, and was starting to peel. In my sleep added sate however, it was pretty terrifying for a few seconds. I didn't know if I was sleeping or what was going on'
'I don't have kids, but once visiting some friends on a farm, my buddy's youngest girl (5 or 6) at the time, was afraid of the chickens. I tried to explain to her that the chickens weren't there to hurt us but she wasn't having it. So I'm sitting around the fire pit looking at one of the chickens a few feet in front of me when I feel hot breath in my ear as she whispers: See, he's always watching"
'"So I shouldn't throw him in the fire?" 3 year old daughter holding her baby brother for the first time"
"5 year old: 'Mommy, when you die I want to put you in a glass jar so I can keep you and see you frever" To which the 6 year old responds: "That's stupid, where are you gonna find a jar that big?"
'When my 2.5 year old and her friends were hanging out, the topic of T-rex and other dinos came up. I asked her friend, "If you were a T-rex, what would you do for fun?" He answered: "I'd chase herbivores!" I then asked my daughter this question: "If you were a T-rex, what would you eat?" She got very serious and looked me right in the eyes and said: "Children. I'd eat children'"
'My 3 year old nephew was at my cottage. He's asked me numerous times about the 'girl over there' while pointing at one of the back bedrooms. The place is small and there is definitely nobody there so I just dismiss it as a really active imagination (he has lots of imaginary friendss). Then some friends are visiting and they have a daughter around the same age. She has never met my nephew. Twice in the one day she asked about the "pretty girl" while pointing at the exact same room. Definitely caught me out and I didn't know what to think. Then at christmas my family was over at my place and my nephew points at a picture of my wife and asks if she is coming to visit us here or does she just stay at the cottage. My wife died ten years ago. Personally, I don't really believe in paranormal stuff so it's probably just my logical brain putting together a bunch of kids ramblings but it definitely got my attention'
'When my son was little, maybe 3, he used to do this weird crawl where he would slide his forehead along the floor. That was pretty creepy in itself. Then one night he crawled across the hallway into my room like that and stood up a few inches from my face and made a weird meow sound. He got into bed with me and went to sleep. Another time he was freaking out about a monster in the basement so we went down and saw nothing, of course, and as I turned out the light and headed upstairs and he said "He's right behind us now" I might have peed a little. Possibly the creepiest thing he did was one day I scoled him for misbehaving so he hid his head under his blanket. I pretended I couldn't find him by saying "Where is my little Carson?" He slowly lowered his blanket and with a dead evil stare said, "Carson is gone, I am Rick"
'My noticeably pregnant sister and I were having a converstation at the dining room table. My 4 year old son was also present and asked my sister if there was a baby in her belly. She affirmed. He, completely straight faced, slid from his chair and headed for the kitchen saying "We need to get it out. I'll go get the knife" I don't even know..'
'We were having roast chicken for dinner. My son (3) has lightbulb moment. Holds up chicken skin. "When we say 'chicken skin' is this really the skin of the chicken. Like my skin?" Next day after some Sunday nappage we play cars. I see a fresh scar on his foot. Straight line with a little dry blood. Ask the little air about it: "I cut myself. I took a knife because I wanted to see what my meat looks like under my skin but it hurt a little so I stopped. I still don't know. Good thing he don't want to see his sister's flesh!"
-That's scary..
-Whoa.. I would've gotten goosebumps all over my body if a child said anything like that to me..
-I'm scared..
-Oh my goodness..
-I don't understand the 'bottle' one..
-The kid in the last picture looks so scary to me..ㅠㅠㅠ
-They're still young and they might have difficulties in choosing the right words, that's why it sounds scary for adults!!
-I'm currently studying about kids and their behavior, and it actually make sense! They're just having difficulty in choosing the right words, they don't mean any harm behind that!
-I can relate to the last story..ㅋㅋ I was so surprised to see people eating pig's skins back then when I was youngㅋㅋㅋ Some of these stories are indeed scary, but I think it's just because they're still innocent and pure, they don't know what's 'cruel' or 'scary'.. And I think the kid who wants to keep their mom in a bottle is kind of cute..ㅋㅋㅋ
-It seems like they're just saying those things without meaning to do any harms behind it..ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-The 'goodbye' one makes me feel uneasy..
