[QUOTE="Malika, post: 609042, member: 11227"] His image of standing outside at night with knives is one I understood of protecting the house, not of something inherently dangerous. And no, good heavens, of course he doesn't really do it!! He sleeps like a log and always has - whereas I sleep fitfully and wake at the slightest noise. I would know. He is fascinated with weapons and always has been. From an early age he has said things like "I am not REALLY going to do it, Mummy!" when I have expressed concern about this. However he can be mildly violent with other kids, yes. I suspect MWM may be onto something when she talks about the need to be important, a hero. That feels right. He does also have a very vivid and creative imagination. But what made me question it is that it really does all seem real to him. It seems as real as what we call "true". [/QUOTE]
