I don't have any children yet, but I always think about how I would like to teach my children to project when I have a couple.

1. What are your views on this?


2. Do you think we could devise a system that will help our children use this ability responsibly? By that I mean, still being able to function on both sides of the veil, and participate in both realities in a goal oriented and progress driven manner.

3. How would you go about teaching them step by step?

No i wouldn't teach them, because i'd be rushing them into it. And then they'd end up telling their friends about it resulting in 'crazy parents'.
Although, i'd teach them at an older age, i.e 10 or when they prove that they're somehow ready for this. I agree it's an excellent idea, they're learning, and they'll have something to study about, But most kids get carried away and will start talking about it at school, as i said and all we can do is ask them not to. Plus it will develop a healthy interest in their parents if they choose to learn, since parent and child are interested in the same subject. It does say in some occult books that you've recieved it at this age, because you were ready 'Now', not then.

My kids are 8 and 12. My 12 year old was beginning to have nightmares this week (all about death). We had a chat and I taught him core-image removal. He told me it really worked for him (no tentacles/roots when he flipped those images over).

I talk about OBEs with him but it frightens him so I wouldn't push it.

My little one likes me to talk him through NEW. Often bedtime rituals are crowded with reading, cuddling and occasional thumb wrestles. It's hard to put everything in. But, the books are on my shelf and I'm always willing to chat so, if it's something they want to do, the environment will pave a way.

They know not to talk about it with outsiders.

I have posted before how I helped my 8 year old and what I have told him. I definitely will teach him to do it when he's old enough and mature enough. At what age? It depends on his maturity. He's almost nine and still not ready.

I would not assume that children don't OBE already . I feel most children do project in dreamstate and forget how to OBE when they grow older . Perhaps a discussion is more in order and perhaps they will have lessons to teach adults too . I have 7 children aged 8 to 23 years old .
3 actively OBE , 1 used to but lost interest . 1 adopted one never recalls even a dream and seems unaware altogether.2 occasionally recall projections but these have been in dreamstate .

I will teach my children what the yneed ot know at different ages but as you say if you teach it them all at once they tell their friends, then their freinds tell their parents and ooohhhh we have all the local Christians, Muslims anything else all coming to the door asking me how i can be so cruel to teach my children these lies and it would be painfully exhausting.

I will teach my children the Practical stuff, how to be productive, goal-oriented, kind, instill the belief in non-duality and so on. I reckon the spiritual stuff can wait, atleast until they mature I.E/teens

[LoveTTatall]

Children!? Are you kidding me? Why would I want one of those?


I probably would if I had once of those creatures. In my opinion it might be more guiding them along while letting them make their own decisions. I was thinking it would promote healthy spiritual growth that way.

I haven't thought about it since my daughter is only two, but I suppose she already has OBE's she can't quite express. If you insert a discussion about it nonchalantly, I imagine they won't make a big deal about it at school and see it as normal. If she shows interest I will share about it with her.

Nah! The only thing my mother taught me to do properly was to question everything, and make a nice cup of tea. I found the rest myself. At this present time, my daughter is as free as a bird...quite literally (and to the dismay of my wife's father...who is vicar).

What a great question - I only phase spontaneously right now so I couldn't teach my two kids (5 and if I wanted to But I honestly think that if they are meant to have these experiences in their lives they will - with or without my help - I believe in teaching my children - to the best of my ability- lessons of the Spirit such as balance, integrity, kindness, compassion, hope, and most of all Love - giving them the Spiritual foundation to be able to deal with whatever comes their way

Whenever I have kids,

I do not plan on necessarily just straight teaching them to OBE, but I will teach them to be open minded and teach them compassion, love, etc etc. All of basics of a strong spiritual being. I think they will develop it themselves, and I will try to make the household, and my relationship with them, open enough so that they know they can come to me and talk about whatever they want to.

And yes, I truly think children are more naturally open and prone to these types of things. They are innocent, new to the world..they don't have any predetermined notions about the world. Whatever they experience is what they believe...the problem is so many children are told what they experience "isn't" or is "not true" and not part of the world.

If they are taught that it isn't "out of the normal" then I can see a very enlightened being rising through childhood becoming a well rounded person.
