You're misunderstanding. No one thinks she's a toddler who believes in Santa Claus, but that doesn't mean she's fully developed. It's just scientific fact that her brain isn't developed at that age. That's why kids aren't allowed to make serious decisions when they're that young--they're not old enough to fully forecast the consequences or think of things as a complexly as an adult needs to.

 

Also, no, she can't argue with you at on adult level. Sure, kids can talk back, even make arguments, but they can't reason and debate on an adult level. That's why child molestation is illegal and wrong--because kids are impressionable and an adult will win an argument with a kid almost always.

 

Well, I disagree with you, but if this argument is going to go into that territory, then we should just agree to disagree.

I suppose we have to. Just make sure she fully understands. Over-explain things to her if you have to, and don't force her to go through with it if she decides it's too much or she isn't interested. You might also want to hold off on the hypnosis you mentioned before too. Let her try it and see if she wants to do it, but try not to influence her too much.

It's too late. She's already determined.

I do wish you and her luck then. Sorry if I got a little bit confrontational, just a little opinionated on this topic I suppose. Just try to be helpful then, and supportive, and make sure the experience is as positive as possible.

Still, when adults do this, we're mindful that we're creating an imaginary friend. To induce a vivid hallucination in someone who hasn't yet developed the ability to fully tell fantasy from reality, that's something closer to actual insanity. Imaginary friends are fine for kids, and tulpae are fine enough for a sound minded adult, but I don't see tulpae as being healthy for a kid. What works for adults doesn't necessarily for kids. Prime example: friends are great for kids--friends with benefits are not.

 

Many imaginary friends are imposed, according to Bluesleeve's blog post where he read "Imaginary Companions and the Children Who Create Them". Full tulpa. Everything we are doing.

 

Also this is not as serious a decision as you make it out to be. Many imaginary friends created around that age eventually fade or leave on their own as the child grows up, usually based on whether the child still wants them.

I suppose I hadn't so much considered that perspective. I guess at the end of the day the most important thing is whether it's what she wants, and it sounds like it is, so you might be right.

Have their been other younger tulpaforcers?

 

Yes. Me. When I was 9. I do not recommend it.

My tulpa Kerin never did. She's still with me 40+ years later.
