Which is why I'm not sure there really is such thing as a true "Natural." Yes, in childhood I think we all experience LD'ing, and there may be people who can have some sense that they are dreaming during the dream -- but without the requisite self-awareness and memory that true LD'ing requires. But naturals would have no problem dealing with nightmares from a very early age, and likely would, in time (probably after the first time they wake up from and actual LD), learn not to fear their condition but to enjoy it. That could just be my opinion, but it seems to make sense: If you are given a particular power, you will eventually appreciate rather than fear it.

Of course, that is just my opinion!
