When my daughters where small both of them used to ask me mom who do you love more? I tried my best to explain how much I loved them ,that I love them both the same but it was always like a competition ! They even started to cry when I would say who I love more but witch mother can love one of her kid more then the other one? Even today two of my kids are making more trouble then the two others I still love them the same !!! Anyway at that time it was really getting to much for me! Right after I came from work they fell both over me and it started over . My nerves not the strongest anymore and then the nightmare set in! It always started with my kids standing on a cliff both slipped I ran to the edge of the cliff both wear still holding on so I grabbed a arm of each of my kids but I was not strong enough to pull them both at the same time up then one kid said let me go I know you love her more I want you to be happy, the other kid said no mom let me go and so on,it always ended up that all three of us fell and the nightmare was over. But it came over and over again so bad that I was afraid to sleep . I really had to go to a shrink he told me to keep a dream diary and write every little detail down . I did that and put more and more details together till I had the whole picture and figured out how to save my kids so the last nightmare was that I saved my kids and it stopped never had that nightmare again,but it also thought me I have to change something in my life and that was that I quit one of my jobs to be more there for my kids. So when you got returning nightmares like I had you can try it it helped me

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. Well i am totally amazed to hear that u are getting such dangerous and fierce nightmares. I mean there is no parents on earth who can differentiate between their children. They all love their children equally and can never see them in distress. I know u must be terrified with such nightmares and would be praying God that such things never happen with u in real life. I think u need to take a strong step from now onwards so that u never get to see such nightmares again. What say?

Thx a lot my friend ! Yes I changed a lot in my life since I figured out that returning nightmares from your own life always have something to do with yourself I can handle things different . I learn a lot about my self and in this case it also showed me that my kids need me more then I need two jobs. My kids where much happier that I had more time and I was happier then ever cause somehow they stopped asking whom I love more

Yes u are right, i think we do not have control over our dreams and if they are of fierce types then we cannot help either. No doubt that the dreams that we see at night has some resemblance with our lives but that does not mean that it will affect our lives completely. Stay positive and hopeful and i am sure nothing will happen. Spend more time with your kids and i am sure u will feel much better.

OMG! What a nightmare! I don't like to experience that. It is so terrifying. I have two boys and two girls and I do experience seeing them to grow with slight competition. 'Who's prettier?' question for my girls and 'who's better?' for my boys. Lucky mother I am that they know how I love them all. What happen to you is really a terrifying and scary dream. I don't like nightmares and I am glad not experiencing that kind of.

Have you told the terrible dream to your daughters?And how old are they? Maybe they didn't really care that which one can be loved more.To my own understanding,I also ask my mother the same question and so does my sister.However,this is a kind of coquetry to my mother.We know that she love us both the same.And my mother usually said that she loved neither of us.Then my sister and I would prentend to cry while my mother laughed secretly.To some extent,my sister and I think it funny which just like a joke.
