[QUOTE="klmno, post: 122603, member: 3699"] Personally, after I saw and heard some things from my difficult child when he was completely unstable, I took drawings to his therapist at the time and asked him about those and other "phrases" difficult child seemed bent on saying. therapist was a male and said he saw no reason to be concerned- he thought it was typical boy stuff and wanting to achieve some shock factor when he realized it made me react. therapist also said to just watch out for any signs of whether or not he thought any of this was real (hallucinating) or if he seemed to get fixated on any of it or paranoid. My difficult child had just turned 11 at the time so I would think this would be even more true for a younger child. He might have seen a scary movie or had a nightmare- it would probably be worth asking him and keeping an eye on how often and to what extreme this is happening. But just based on this incident and nothing else, I wouldn't worry too much. Knowing what I know now with mine, I'd try to hold some of the shock in too, around him. [/QUOTE]
