[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 53913, member: 3626"] Actually, not that unusual in kids. Think fairy tales -- especially the Grimms Brothers. If you think about them, stuff didn't get much more horrid and morbid. Part of growing and developing is overcoming things that scare you. Pretend play is a big part of that. And evil stepmothers are about as common as monsters under the bed in childrens' stories (think Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty). No matter how much we try, we can't make the world rainbows and flowers in our kids' minds. They will find a way to hear/see the stories you don't want them to hear/see. Their imaginations will find ways to scare them. [/QUOTE]
