wild imagination

i was just wondering if anyone elses child has develpoed i guess you would call it an imaginary friend . My son is 2 and since we moved to our new home he swears theres a tiger in the house. he has woken up crying because "the tiger scared joshua"(his words) he had about a week when he was scared to go anywhere without me because he thought the tiger would get him. i've tried to explain to him that there is no tiger in our house i've even walked him around the house and showed him there was no tiger anywhere. i've run out of ideas, he still swears theres a tiger in the shower, and under his bed. he even yells for the tiger to go home.

My nephew went through the "imaginary friend" phase.. I think it was around the time they moved, so perhaps it's associated with changes.. His "friend" was a board named Flank.. Kids are so silly.. He did grow out of it!

Thıs ıs goıng to sound really stupıd but when ı was younger ı was scared of dınosaurs. I honestly thought that a dınosaur was comıgnt o my house to eat me and every bang or thud ı heard ın the nıght ı crapped myself and crıed. I grew out of ıt but ı never had an ımagınary frıend....he wıll probably grow out of ıt xx

that's kind of like him, every noise is the tiger coming to get him. i don't even know where he got the idea that tigers would hurt hum

oh boo-poor little guy  
sorry-I dont have any advice....hope it works out soon for you.
