Folks In This Online Group Shared 30 Stories Of Kids Showing Signs They Might Have Lived A Life Before Their Current One
There is such a philosophical or religious concept of reincarnation. It suggests that a person’s soul is immortal and when the body perishes the soul moves on to be reborn in a new body. There is no way to prove it as nobody found out what happens to a person’s consciousness when they die but there are indications that lead some people to believe it is actually real.
Most of those cases are related to children. Sometimes they say just nonsensical things but occasionally they might say or do something that is out of character to them or requires specific knowledge. Like remembering names of real people they have never met or heard being mentioned or remembering specific places.
The unexplainable source of such knowledge might creep parents out and make them believe their children are actually confusing their lives with their past ones. There are so many of these stories that even further prove the theory. We collected the best ones from a Reddit thread started by poopcornkernels when they asked “Parents of Reddit, what has your child done to make you think they lived a past life?” Let us know if you have any similar stories in the comments!

My mom loves to tell this story:
When I was young, I really wanted to learn Russian, so they got me into a class. In general, Russian was very easy to pick-up and use. It sort of "made sense" and I could construct complex sentences. The teacher told my mother that it was spooky, because I could speak it in a way that they hadn't been teaching me (I could figure-out colloquial phrases). To this day, I still have it and haven't lost my Russian.

This is fascinating but I need to know things like how old was OP, was the teacher familiar with teaching kids, did OP hear Russian anywhere else... in short, kids' ability to aquire a language is truly astounding and mind-boggling.

My friend had a miscarriage before she had her first daughter. A few years ago when her daughter was about 4 a group of us were at a party and her daughter was sitting on her lap and said something along the lines of "I'm sorry I left you before mommy. I was hurting really bad and I wasn't ready." My friend asked her was she meant and her daughter said she left her before she was born but came back. Super creepy. Daughter doesn't remember this conversation and still doesn't know about the miscarriage.

I asked my son once who he was before he was my son. He was small, maybe 3
He looked at me sadly and said, 'It was dark and cold and I wasn't anything. Just all by myself..'
And then be perked up and said 'And before that I had black wings and I flew! And I'd take shiny stuff because all shiny things are MINE!'
And that is how I realized my son was magpie in his past life. And gave me a clue where to find my missing earrings. (He had a hidden cache of jewelry in his room, the little imp.).

When my sister was 3 she would go on and on about her brother, Brian. We're all girls, and we don't know where she would have heard the name. But it was all, Brian does this Brian and me used to do that, on and on. Thinking Brian was an imaginary friend I asked her where Brian was now. She said "he's passed away, I am, too. The bomb got us and our house is gone." Very weird.

When my niece had just turned 4, I was living with her and her mum to help take care of her whilst her mum was at work. Normal silly kid. One day at breakfast she's really upset, I ask her, "Claire, what's wrong?" She looked at me with such sad eyes and said, it's Emily. I asked who Emily was and she got more upset, and said, No, my name is Emily. I must have looked at her confused and paused because she then started crying and said, why don't you remember me? You were there too! (I asked where) and she continued to be go smacked that I didn't know what she was talking about. She cried and said, in the War, you were there too, when the soldiers came and we had to lie down in the ditches in the field in the village. I asked what war, she said, the one with the whole world, that the bad men came, and eventually that we were in France. Next day she had literally zero memory of it. Was one of the most bizarre but amazing experiences I've ever had

My 3y/o niece, in a hotel near her home "I've been here. I used to sit in this chair and knit." Wouldn't say anything else when pressed further.
Another time in an antiques shop, we looked at an old school desk with a flip-top lid when she, bemused, said "Where's the inkwell??" It just seemed strange that she'd expect there to be one.

My daughter would freak out and start crying and screaming while repeating. "Why! Why! I got married, I just got married, I got married." Over and over again with this tone filled with grief that I never heard come out of a child so small. 2 and 1/2 is pretty young to be sobbing you're heart out. It was a cry that I had only ever heard from adults who have lost the love of their life.

So I am raised Roman Catholic. My son is raised Roman Catholic. But I was dating this muslim guy who would play prayers constantly (that were on YouTube). This particular day my boyfriend was playing a prayer that's supposed to protect you from jinn. My three year old son looked up from his colouring book said clear as day "now they will be gone for 1000 days" my boyfriend looked him dead in the eye and was like "how do you know that?" My son smiled shrugged and continued to colour.
I don't know if this is true but my boyfriend explained that if you recited that specific prayer it was supposed to banish evil spirits for 1000 days. To this day I still get chills when I think about it.

This is interesting cause if this guy is super religious to play prayers on YouTube, he would not have a girlfriend with whom have sex and such cause it would have been accounted as adultery. On the other hand, if he was super religious, he would not have a relationship with a Roman Catholic cause it would have been against their religious beliefs. Even though I don't support what I have said above, this is how it works with super religious Muslims.
Moondust 2 years ago
Muslim men can marry women from any religion and maybe his girlfriend already had a child from previous relationships and he was just supporting here. STOP making assumptions here.but in any case it is definitely against religious beliefs to date.

When my oldest son was three, he used to wake up crying and saying that he wanted to "go home". Over and over he would repeat it. I would reassure him that everything was okay, he was at home. Happens for many months. We had a huge map of the world in the hallway and one night when he was upset, I took him to the map and showed him where we lived and asked, where his other home was. He pointed out a small town in Mexico. Day after day he pointed to the same exact place. So, we took him there. It was a beautiful little area and we had a great time. There was nothing profound in any of his reactions. When we got home he started sleeping through the night and never mentioned it again. We live in California and my husband and and I are both white. However, our son is adopted and although his bio father is technically "unknown", we were told it is probable that he was Hispanic.

When I was about 3, I used to tell my mum stories of being a little Chinese girl. Apparently I lived at the bottom of a hill with my grandmother, and I passed away in a flood. When I was 6 or 7, I came home from school upset that I'd been surrounded by a group of boys, and I cried to my mum that it was like when the soldiers on horses came to take us away.

Probably just saw it on tv. Not that weird. Kids do s**t like this all of the time. My step daughter when she was 7 spoke in a Scottish accent for weeks and wore my old catholic school skirt "as a kilt" and made fake "bagpipes" out of paper towel types and a canvas shopping bag and called herself Angus Macduff n refused to speak to us unless we spoke to her in a Scottish accent. Nobody we know is Scottish... no shows or movies we watch have Scottish ppl in them... turns out it was from some comic book or book her friend from school told her about that she never even read or saw.. she just thought it was funny and apparently identified with this made up dude Angus. Lol. I could have told myself she was a Scottish bag pipe player in a past life.. but

When my middle son was 3 he used to tell me about his family he used to have before he came to me. They all passed away because they had no food, they also lived in a forest and he passed laying next to his brother and sister. This story stayed consistent until he was around 4 and never spoke about it again. He's a earthy kid and I believe this definitely isn't his first time here!

When my daughter was 4 she looked at me and said "we've been together as long as you've been on this earth....but I've been here a lot longer than you." Also, just after my Mom passed away, I was having a rough day. She came over to me and said something to the likes of "time moves differently in the afterlife. What is a lifetime for you is only the blink of an eye for your Mom." She had just turned 7 when she said this.

When our 9 year old was 3, he happily playing in his sandbox, looked at his mother and said, "I was old I got sick and I passed away, but now I'm new again!" When my wife asked him more about it, he said he remembered being an old woman. He doesn't remember saying it anymore.

Not as a parents, but My niece drew a picture "of a man in her room" that she kept telling her parents about. He had two different colored eyes, and one was gray. When asked why it was gray, she responded "because he can see the storm coming."

When my sister was about five she told me "You used to be a music producer in Finland, but I can't tell you your real name cause it will hurt you really really bad".
How she even knew what a producer was kinda weirded me out.

I was walking down the street with my daughter who was about 4 yrs at the time and she pointed to a random house and told me about how she had lived there with her sister but they had to leave when the house went on fire and her sister went to heaven.

When my son was very small, 3-4, whenever he would get tired or cranky he would say "I want to go home." Which was way weird because we were already home. But maybe he was remembering a previous life/home?
It kinda freaked me out, and I would always hug him and say "This is your home now, please stay here, we love you."

Who Panda 420 2 years ago
Vivid imagination key words. Not saying I don't believe every story but children listen to and absorb everything. When your child is playing on the ground and you think they're not paying attention they are in fact listening to every word and storing it their mind for later. I can say this for certain as I was a former Child.

There was a particular house my mom used to drive past, I was about 3 or 4; every time, I told her that I used to live there. She told me we'd never lived there, but I told her that when I lived there, my name was Mandy, and I had long blonde hair and a long blue dress. Turned out my mom had once been there at a party shortly after meeting my father; they met playing tennis and the older couple who lived there had given a party my parents had attended. They'd had a 17 year old daughter named Mandy, she had long blonde hair and had been wearing a long blue dress when she had been killed in a car accident 5 years before that particular party.

I can relate to these, because I remember saying some of this stuff. My family used to laugh at me because I would try to tell them about when I was 20, except I was about 6 or 7. But I really did want to tell them about when I was grown up. I also remembered a castle I used to live in and roughly where it was, near some marshland. In my teens, a librarian helped me find it in a book of English castles, in a marshy area, with the features I remembered. Except it didn't have the smaller waist high wall I used to sit on, that went around the castle itself. Librarian did more research and found that the castle did have that wall, but it had sunk into the marsh, estimated 400+ years ago. I understand this subject is ridiculous for many, as are most things when never experienced personally.

For the skeptics, don't be so sure. I'm the most fact-based, evidence-demanding person in the world; I don't believe in gods or demons or any other supernatural things. But it is not at all uncommon for children to say things that suggest that reincarnation might actually be a thing. Three years old seems to be a very common age for this -- it's possible that the memories happen earlier but it's only at 3 or 4 that they have the words to express these experiences. My daughter at that age said (at various times) things that she could not possibly have heard or seen on TV. Once she turned to me and said, "I couldn't kill my brother yesterday. That's why there wasn't enough food. After all, I was supposed to be a preacher man." And, yes, that's verbatim. It was over 15 years ago and I still remember it like it was yesterday. There were other, less dramatic statements as well, but that one was the oddest.

I clearly remember sitting on my bed looking out the window of our tiny house as a 4 year old, crying my eyes out, wishing I could ‘go back’ because I was so miserable. ‘Go back’ to the white stone house that had a small tower, on a green hill in Scotland. I hated my life (we were pretty poor) and my family, and didn’t want to be there anymore. Not a dream. Not a tv show. Not a book I read because I couldn’t read and my parents never read to me. Never been to Scotland. I can still see that house in my mind. So all you nay-sayers can bite me.

I'm Turkish and since my high school days, there's this phrase in English which I don't remember where on when I heard it. It is "Theirs not to make reply, theirs not to reason why, theirs but to do and die." I find myself saying this phrase since high school days and never asked the reason why (PUN) Even I learned the meaning of the phrase while studying university I kept checking it online to see what movie, or series I heard it and it turned out it was a poem called "The Charge of the Light Brigade" by Lord Tennyson written in 1854.

For nearly six centuries, reincarnation was a core part of Christianity, making it a religion for all of humanity. The teaching of Jesus, promising the restoration of all of God’s children was removed from Christianity in 543 AD. The doctrine of only one life made it easier to control the followers. Even though there is a lot of evidence for reincarnation, Christians don't want to believe because they have been told not to.

Lot of non-believers in the comments. My mother loves to tell this story: when I was about 3 years old, my mom and I were visiting my aunt who lived in another city. I got really sick on this trip. Yet the only part of this entire trip I remember with clarity is sitting in a train with red leather seats, the conductor? I have no idea but he wore a uniform and came up to see if I was OK while I threw up into an empty bucket picked up at a dollar store. I remember him speaking, my mom speaking, and according to her, during this train ride I repeatedly asked them both not to let me go, that I wasn't ready to die again. There's pictures of this entire vacation and one of the train while my aunt held a very sick looking child. Even with the pictures I question this vacation taking place yet I remember with perfect clarity asking a complete stranger not to let me die again. If I had a near death experience before then, nobody has ever told me.

The interesting thing bout reincarnation is where do all the "old souls" come from? You see, starting from the earliest days of humanity to today, the vast majority of people who have ever lived on Earth... are currently alive. Which means that most people are new souls, not old ones... and have never been reincarnated.

The University of Virginia and a University in Canada have been doing reincarnation studies since the 1970's. Virginia has over 2400 case studies and the have proven 75% of them, to be 100% accurate. You can go to their site, by just typing reincarnation studies University of Vrginia. Children lose most of their childhood memories around the age of 8. So, most of these studies are with children under that age. If you read the stories and evidence, you will walk away with a whole different perspective on reincarnation. The University stats are impressive, and they don't publish or promote their findings, except as studies. Go read some of the stories and see if it doesn't change your outlook on life after death. Just a thought.

There have reincarnation studies going since the 1970's at the University of Virginia. They have over 2400 case studies that are more than convincing. There is also a university in Canada that is doing the same. Children lose their childhood memories between 8-10 years old, so all of these studies are from children below that age. More than 75% have been proven 100% accurate. There is much we don't know, but if you read these stories from these children and look at the evidence, you will walk away scratching your head and questioning religion.

How many of us learn powerful lessons without pain ? How much can we learn in just 80 or 90 years ? If we have one life, why does it not make sense to have many ? What difference does it make ? The Catholic Church use to teach reincarnation. Then canceled that idea when they realized more money and fear filled their coffers with the idea of one life only. For some of us life is what you believe, for others it is what you know.

I wish people wouldn’t make up stories to get the attention of strangers or anyone else. I was a licensed child care specialist for 25 years. In all the years I was with the kids I never had a 1.5 year old that could say more then a single word at one time. Even that was unusual. But one person described her 1 yr old actually giving a short speech. And the 3 year olds that spewed out entire scenarios in multiple sentences is highly unlikely. Not entirely impossible but very uncommon. I believe in reincarnation so hate to see people make up their stories. It ruins it for the true story tellers.

That's so cool. It takes courage to speak up sometimes. I need evidence to believe and I believe you. I didn't have these experiences myself but my bro did. Its cool u looked into it. Most kids forget.

For the skeptics, don't be so sure. I'm the most fact-based, evidence-demanding person in the world; I don't believe in gods or demons or any other supernatural things. But it is not at all uncommon for children to say things that suggest that reincarnation might actually be a thing. Three years old seems to be a very common age for this -- it's possible that the memories happen earlier but it's only at 3 or 4 that they have the words to express these experiences. My daughter at that age said (at various times) things that she could not possibly have heard or seen on TV. Once she turned to me and said, "I couldn't kill my brother yesterday. That's why there wasn't enough food. After all, I was supposed to be a preacher man." And, yes, that's verbatim. It was over 15 years ago and I still remember it like it was yesterday. There were other, less dramatic statements as well, but that one was the oddest.

I don't know why you were down voted. I'm a sceptic but I don't know it all. I've seen strange stuff. Maybe 98% I can explain. The rest who knows.

I clearly remember sitting on my bed looking out the window of our tiny house as a 4 year old, crying my eyes out, wishing I could ‘go back’ because I was so miserable. ‘Go back’ to the white stone house that had a small tower, on a green hill in Scotland. I hated my life (we were pretty poor) and my family, and didn’t want to be there anymore. Not a dream. Not a tv show. Not a book I read because I couldn’t read and my parents never read to me. Never been to Scotland. I can still see that house in my mind. So all you nay-sayers can bite me.

Sometimes I think it's our genetics 🧬 that are passed down to us and maybe we inherited a few memories from our blood lines.

I'm Turkish and since my high school days, there's this phrase in English which I don't remember where on when I heard it. It is "Theirs not to make reply, theirs not to reason why, theirs but to do and die." I find myself saying this phrase since high school days and never asked the reason why (PUN) Even I learned the meaning of the phrase while studying university I kept checking it online to see what movie, or series I heard it and it turned out it was a poem called "The Charge of the Light Brigade" by Lord Tennyson written in 1854.

A recurring theme here is that most of the kids were ~3. I wonder if there's any significance in that?

It used to make me wonder when I was younger, but as I got older, I began to realize that by the time they reach their mid teens, most people are as intellectually and emotionally developed as they're ever going to be. Mature, intelligent people with good critical thinking skills are actually the minority.

I'm not claiming anything but when I was super young one of my very first memories was being in the back seat of a really old car with no seatbelts and I had a brother and a mom and dad and we were driving to the beach and I was about 7 and I had never been before so I didn't know how to swim and I went to far out and I don't remember what happened after that but I bet I drowned also I don't have a brother or any siblings and my family has never had an old car like that idk where that memory came from but I have always held on to it for my whole life and I've never told anyone so idk maybe that was a past life

For nearly six centuries, reincarnation was a core part of Christianity, making it a religion for all of humanity. The teaching of Jesus, promising the restoration of all of God’s children was removed from Christianity in 543 AD. The doctrine of only one life made it easier to control the followers. Even though there is a lot of evidence for reincarnation, Christians don't want to believe because they have been told not to.

Exactly its easier to control people who think they've only one shot. It doesn't help when everything that doesn't fit is removed from the bible. It worked a treat for a while until the unread masses got smart

Tengo una amiga , ella es psicóloga, años atras uno de sus pequeños hijos comenzó a hablar de sus vidas pasadas y la relación que hubo entre ellos. Mi amiga aún siendo psicóloga se asustaba. Fué a ver a un ser espiritual que conocía y le comentó su preocupación. Esta persona le dijo que no se preocupara que a los 8 años como mucho se les borra este recuerdo. Y así fué. El hijo no tenía mas de 3 o 4 años.

Lot of non-believers in the comments. My mother loves to tell this story: when I was about 3 years old, my mom and I were visiting my aunt who lived in another city. I got really sick on this trip. Yet the only part of this entire trip I remember with clarity is sitting in a train with red leather seats, the conductor? I have no idea but he wore a uniform and came up to see if I was OK while I threw up into an empty bucket picked up at a dollar store. I remember him speaking, my mom speaking, and according to her, during this train ride I repeatedly asked them both not to let me go, that I wasn't ready to die again. There's pictures of this entire vacation and one of the train while my aunt held a very sick looking child. Even with the pictures I question this vacation taking place yet I remember with perfect clarity asking a complete stranger not to let me die again. If I had a near death experience before then, nobody has ever told me.

The interesting thing bout reincarnation is where do all the "old souls" come from? You see, starting from the earliest days of humanity to today, the vast majority of people who have ever lived on Earth... are currently alive. Which means that most people are new souls, not old ones... and have never been reincarnated.

What if humans aren’t the only ones with souls? If all the wildlife who’s numbers are dwindling had souls they could be reborn as humans.

The University of Virginia and a University in Canada have been doing reincarnation studies since the 1970's. Virginia has over 2400 case studies and the have proven 75% of them, to be 100% accurate. You can go to their site, by just typing reincarnation studies University of Vrginia. Children lose most of their childhood memories around the age of 8. So, most of these studies are with children under that age. If you read the stories and evidence, you will walk away with a whole different perspective on reincarnation. The University stats are impressive, and they don't publish or promote their findings, except as studies. Go read some of the stories and see if it doesn't change your outlook on life after death. Just a thought.

Have these alleged "studies" been peer reviewed? Has anyone else been able to consistently reproduce the claimed results?

There have reincarnation studies going since the 1970's at the University of Virginia. They have over 2400 case studies that are more than convincing. There is also a university in Canada that is doing the same. Children lose their childhood memories between 8-10 years old, so all of these studies are from children below that age. More than 75% have been proven 100% accurate. There is much we don't know, but if you read these stories from these children and look at the evidence, you will walk away scratching your head and questioning religion.

How many of us learn powerful lessons without pain ? How much can we learn in just 80 or 90 years ? If we have one life, why does it not make sense to have many ? What difference does it make ? The Catholic Church use to teach reincarnation. Then canceled that idea when they realized more money and fear filled their coffers with the idea of one life only. For some of us life is what you believe, for others it is what you know.

I wish people wouldn’t make up stories to get the attention of strangers or anyone else. I was a licensed child care specialist for 25 years. In all the years I was with the kids I never had a 1.5 year old that could say more then a single word at one time. Even that was unusual. But one person described her 1 yr old actually giving a short speech. And the 3 year olds that spewed out entire scenarios in multiple sentences is highly unlikely. Not entirely impossible but very uncommon. I believe in reincarnation so hate to see people make up their stories. It ruins it for the true story tellers.
