Im going to find a kid and ask them. Shame my only young relative is only 14 months old... |

I was curious to see what my 7 year old sister thought dreams were. Or more to the point, where they are. If she thought it was a real place, or it happened in reality. Or if she knew it was in her head. She had a dream she was in our house and she heard fire so I spoke to her about it. |

What kind of response do you want to hear? I don't get it. She obviously knows it's all in her head, stop tormenting kids. |

Go take a flying fuck at a rolling doughnut. Go take a flying fuck at the moon.
Well that's what happens when you ask dumb questions. |
|
Don't be so rude. |

I've been wanting to ask my nieces and nephew similar questions. I've heard that kids sometimes regularly have lucid dreams during their childhood, so asking and educating them about at that time might help them retain the ability later on in life. And even if they don't, educating them about it could easily be enough to help them start having them. I know I wish I would have been told about lucid dreaming when I was still a kid. Though I suppose trying to teach them techniques might be a little too much at this age. I'll post here if I get a decent response. |

It confused her because she knows it is in her head. In her mind you were basically telling her that dreams happen somewhere else by asking her where they happen. |
|
Going to ask my Sister this if I remember. =3 |
|
I think you confused her more than she confused you. |
|
You're phrasing it too hard for a 7 year old to understand. I agreed with what tommo said. She know dreams are not real but she can't pinpoint it out exactly where it is. You expect a 7 years old to understand conscious, subconscious and unconscious and how the brain works? |
|
It's true: You just worded the question very badly. |

Well how would you have worded it? |
|
I would have asked her whether she thought dreams were all in her head, or if she believed that what was happening in the dream was actually happening in another place, other than here in the 'real world.' |

I was trying to word it in a way that wouldn't allow the question to suggest something in itself or its putting words into her mouth. This obviously didn't work, we have established the phrasing was bad, thank you for unnecessarily pointing that out again. Moving on please. |
