You pay per answer, never per minute, and your first answer is free.
My child says they lived before means a young child is speaking about another life, another family, or a death as if remembering it, and Luna advises listening calmly, writing the exact words down, and asking no leading questions first, since your first answer is free, one answer is $7, and packs are $15, $35, and $60.
My child says they lived before. What do I do first?
Do three quiet things first. Stay calm, because your child is watching your face more than your words. Listen without correcting or cheering the story on. Then write down the exact words, the date, and what happened just before, while every detail is still fresh in the room.
Parents who search this question are not rare, and guidance for them is thin outside a few calm pages. 30 percent of U.S. adults say they consult astrology (or a horoscope), tarot cards, or a fortune teller at least once a year, in the Pew Research Center survey of 9,593 U.S. adults conducted October 21 to 27, 2024 and published May 21, 2025 (Pew Research Center).
Keep the record plain. Names, places, and phrases your child could not have picked up at home matter more than your first interpretation of them. Families reading through past life and family questions often find that the note they almost skipped, a street name or an old job, is the detail that later gives the account its shape, so keep every one.
Why do young children seem to remember another life so clearly?
Young children speak before they learn which topics make adults uneasy, so a statement about another mother or another home arrives in the same plain tone as a remark about breakfast, and that plainness is exactly what makes parents take the words seriously and remember them word for word afterward.
Belief that the mind can reach beyond ordinary limits is common ground in many homes. 26 percent of U.S. adults say they believe in clairvoyance, the power of the mind to know the past and predict the future, according to Gallup polling from May 2025 (Gallup).
These statements usually begin between ages two and five, arrive uninvited, and fade as school life fills the foreground. Our live psychic chat guide shows how readers bring one unsettled detail like this to a named advisor and sort memory from imagination.
How do past life statements differ from ordinary pretend play?
Pretend play bends when you join in, while past life statements usually stay fixed. A child inventing a game will happily change the story when a new idea arrives, but a child reporting a memory tends to repeat the same names and places, correct adults who get them wrong, and lose interest in performing.
The distinction matters because it keeps parents from leaning on a reading for choices it cannot carry. Just 1 percent of U.S. adults say they rely a lot on what they learn from astrology, tarot cards, or fortune tellers when making major life decisions, according to Pew Research Center (Pew Research Center).
Tone is another marker. Play is loud and pleased with itself. These statements are often matter of fact, sometimes sad, and occasionally tied to a fear with no source in this life, such as deep water. If the practical side is what you need next, text a psychic explains how a single written answer works.
Should you write down what your child says about a past life?
Yes, and sooner is better than polished. Write the words exactly as spoken, even when they sound odd, and add the time, the place, and who else heard them. Memory edits quickly, especially when grandparents start retelling the story at gatherings, and the first plain version is the one worth keeping safe.
Writing also slows the household down in a useful way, turning alarm into observation. 27 percent of U.S. adults say they believe people can communicate mentally with someone who has died, in Gallup polling from May 2025 (Gallup).
A simple notebook by the bed is enough for most families, since statements often arrive at sleep edges, in cars, or during baths. The seeker type quiz can help you name what kind of answer you are actually looking for, and our guide to what a first tarot reading involves shows the same habit at work, exact words first and interpretations second.
What should you do if the statements frighten your child or you?
Comfort comes before curiosity, every time. If your child is distressed, hold them, name the feeling, and bring the room back to the present life with ordinary things, a drink of water, a familiar song, the dog on the rug. The account can wait until morning. Your child cannot.
Most adults who explore these questions treat them as guidance rather than certainty, which is the healthy frame here too. Of U.S. adults overall, 20 percent say they engage in astrology, tarot, or fortune telling mostly just for fun, while 10 percent say they do so mostly because they believe the practices give them helpful insights, per Pew Research Center (Pew Research Center).
Watch the pattern over weeks rather than judging one startling sentence. Statements that fade as a child settles are common in the collected accounts. Statements tied to nightmares or a strong fear deserve slower attention and a grounded conversation, at a reading or with any trusted listener.
A note from Luna
I am Luna, and the first thing I would say to you is that you do not need to solve this tonight. Your child offered you something strange and possibly precious, and your only first job is to receive it without flinching, so the door stays open if more comes.
Here is the practice example I give parents, stated as a sample. A sample note reads: Tuesday, bedtime, said the blue house had stairs that hurt his legs, asked for his other shoes. No theory, just the words and the hour. Three entries like that tell me more than an hour of guessing, and you can read how I work on my advisor page.
Plenty of households hold room for experiences like these without letting them run the house. 48 percent of U.S. adults say they believe in psychic or spiritual healing, or the power of the human mind to heal the body, in the Gallup Poll Social Series telephone interviews with 1,003 adults in May 2025 (Gallup).
What does a reading like this cost?
A reading about your child words costs the same as any other reading with me, because the charge follows the answer and never the clock. A parent can lay out three notebook entries slowly, pause, cry a little, and still pay for one answer rather than for every minute spent finding the words.
For scale, tarot and similar consultations are a yearly habit for a visible share of adults, not a fringe one. About one in ten U.S. adults (11 percent) consults tarot cards at least once a year, according to the Pew Research Center survey of 9,593 U.S. adults from October 2024 (Pew Research Center).
Start with the pack of 3 answers at $15 if you want room to ask, pause, and ask again once you have checked your notes, and know the shape of the service first. SpiritClick is an online psychic and tarot reading service offering live text chat readings with named human advisors. The full list is short and fixed:
1. Single answer: $7
2. Pack of 3 answers: $15
3. Pack of 8 answers: $35
4. Pack of 15 answers: $60
5. First answer: free
Side by side, the two billing shapes behave very differently in a conversation about your child:
1. Per minute billing: a long pause while you find the notebook page keeps charging you.
2. Per answer billing: the pause costs nothing, and one answer is $7 however long the pause lasted.
3. Per minute billing: emotion itself becomes expensive, since tears take minutes too.
4. Per answer billing: you can bring the next notebook entry tomorrow inside a pack you already hold.
The companion question in this series asks whether a person rather than a memory can bend a household luck, in can another person bring you bad luck.

Frequently asked questions
What to do when your child remembers a past life?
Stay calm, listen with an open mind, and write the words down before the day smooths them away. I would not quiz a small child or offer names to agree with. Ask one gentle question, such as whether they remember anything else, then let ordinary life resume. Most children in the collected accounts stop talking about the memories between five and seven.
My four year old says he lived before and died, what should I do?
Take the sentence seriously without treating it as an emergency. Comfort him first, especially if the death he describes frightens him, and note his exact words once he is settled. Many parents hear the strongest statements at this age, often at bedtime. You do not need to confirm or deny anything. Your calm tells him the present life is safe.
How to gently explore these memories with your child?
Use their own words and stop early. If she says she had another house, ask what colour its door was, then accept the answer and move on. Never supply details, never reward the story with alarm or delight, and never press on a day she does not offer it. Gentle exploration is listening at the speed she sets, while your notes gather the pattern.
