Its just a common phenomenon you had when you where a kid and you learn to dismiss such toughts (like nightmares). Public opinion is just negative towards dreaming because they don't really know what it actually can offer.

Most people don't remember dreams at all or automatically forget the dreams when waking up as its routine. So why suddenly think its special?
It can be more than that. For some people it's sort of taboo; like something you shouldn't talk about.
For instance, try saying to someone ,"I had a dream about you last night", and watch them start moving away from you!
I frequently have dreams where family, colleagues or friends appear, but except for close family I don't mention it at all.

I do wonder though if LDing is destined to remain on the fringes of society, as just an oddity?
One problem is that it is actually quite hard for most people to do at all, let alone well, and as in most things in life, that fact alone means only a small fraction will enjoy it.
