A thought:
From Wikipedia
" In a number of parts of the nervous system, neurons and synapses are produced in excessive numbers during the early stages, and then the unneeded ones are pruned away".
Autism Link
https://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/22/heal ... gests.html
"Now a new study suggests that in children with autism, something in the process goes awry, leaving an oversupply of synapses in at least some parts of the brain."
This is talking about sensitivity, but I think that maybe the child in you was never pruned away. I feel like I am still 5 years old, not everyone feels like that but some people do.

Every couple of years I have a symptom of something that makes me think I'm dying and I get really anxious, I just had one but the Dr rushed me and didn't find the lump and I had a sort of panic so my Mum drove me to a medical drop in centre and the nurse found the lump but it was not suspicious so I calmed down.
Now that I've thought it over I think I would have been better able to cope at a different time, it's as if all of my anxiety gets fixed onto one thing that I then see as a disaster so I am going to prioritise coping with my anxiety. I have just started reading a book called 'Making Friends With Anxiety'.
Pepper Pig is brill.
I use to get scared something was really bad wrong with me as well. A lump and I would panic, or if I thought maybe I swallowed a sliver of glass from the edge of a coke bottle, or I tried marry J and I freaked out thinking my heart was going to explode. I had forgotten about that. I am 48 now, this was when I was a teenager.

I would love to see children judges on cooking shows or talent shows.

I am a parent, and I think I understand you. When my child talks, I listen to them as if I were listing to anyone else. I take the time to make sure I understand their view. When I do that I can relate to how my child feels, and then my parental instruction is within the context of what they think and there is zero problem "dealing" with my child. Its as if my child were a rational person.

You should pitch that idea to a TV production company.

I didn't know there was a film made.
George was by far my favorite too. I identified so much with her when I first read these books, and I still identify with much about her, although I am wimpier. I would have loved to have an island of my own and a boat and Timmy, of course! Lovely, wonderful Timmy!
The books I have claim they are for kids aged 9-14. I read them when I was 8-11. And 40!
I didn't know about the movies either until recently. I have seen 3 German movies about them. There is a Wikipedia article about the first one, and another about Five TV series and movies.

I wish I couldn't relate to that. Especially from childhood and up to somewhere in adult age I would have specific disease fears. I never went to any doc though, and for the most part (until adult age) I kept those fears entirely to myself.
I haven't had them as badly in a while. But I've always feared injury and disease.

Thanks I couldn't tell, did they change when they were set?
For some reason illness and injury scare me much more than death. I think it's because it would mean being dependent on others. They would then do what they thought best, not what I would do.
