I have my two eldest sons only part time. Their mother is a non practicing Greek orthodox Christian, and they go to a Catholic school.
My eldest boy, 11, said tonight during story time before bed (Harry potter, order of the Phoenix), that he has been thinking about death lately, and about where we go, if we go anywhere.
I told a few stories about family members and a few of my own experiences, which lend credence to life after death, but suggested we find him a book with some "evidence" of people who seem to remember past lives..
Then he asked about how to know our future, We discussed clairvoyance and clairvoyants. The nature of future uncertainty, then finished off with simple breathing techniques for calmness.
I figured someone here might know of a good book for him / them. He (11) has had problems with concentration and reading, so it may be something I read to them both. The younger boy is 8, which may be a bit young. Also, he (8) is quite jesus-centric at the moment.
Side note, precognition, sending messages to family members, being aware of each other's thoughts is not unheard of in our (my) family. This particular son (11) said when he was little (3) that he was talking to his then just passed on great grandmother about his toys, or to use his words, " the lady in the photo". He also said he gave her his truck, which we found in her locked grave head stone.. he doesn't remember this anymore, but is a spiritual little fellow. Not so much Mr 8, but he takes everything in.
Thankyou in advance for any advice or recommendations.
