So you learned poor judgment from your dad and here you pass it on.\n\nYou are a bad parent, simple as that.  You first concern should be for the welfare of your children - where was that concern during this prank?\n\nYou did this prank for yourself, so you could watch them be terrified.  What part of it was for their benefit?  \n\nyou so need to aplogize so that they can maybe trust their dad again.  It may take a long time to trust someone who supposedly loves you and would do that to you.

Just remember you were young and stupid.  Everyone was young and stupid once, there's nothing you can do about it now except make sure never to do it again.\n\nAnd hope to teach your children to do better.

Good for you.....too bad you just missed Friday the 13th in October!\n\nJust one thing though.  Please do not camp out ON a grave.  It's not even recommended to walk on them!   Try to think of it as being respectful, okay?\n\nOh, yeah, and watch for cops.  Even if you're not doing anything wrong, they'll break it up and make you move along, or worse, drag you home.\n\nBut I'm really glad you guys made it through the night!

We need more information. What are you scared of exactly? Are you afraid to leave the house or afraid to speak your mind...i'm not fond of clowns myself. With only this little bit of info i would say maybe find an outside party like a counselor.

I have two kids...and you will get over that fear when you do to.  \n\nBTW my hubby has never seen this in 11 years...but the kids well...they just come on in.

Lol...omg. That's funny as hell. Truthfully it depends on if the kids are old enough to understand the joke and laugh at it...but they wouldnt be going to bed at 9 pm. If u want to scare the kids into sleeping, tell them if they dont, the monsters under the bed will eat them....or if you actually want them to sleep, tell them no more presents on their birthdays & such.

Hid under their (brothers) beds, and after they were tucked in for the night I reached up and grabbed a leg and held on... they screeched like little girls.\n\nAlso blew pepper at another brother.. which he thought it was my sister, so he got her back instead..she can't stand pepper even today.\n\nKilled my sisters favorite stuffed animal by giving it a bath in the washing machine... all the insides became outsides.. until our mom performed surgery and restuffed and sewed it. I was so scared she'd hate me..Thank God Mom was able to fix it all.

I'm sorry you are living in such fear, but you are letting him continue to harm you by living in that fear. He does not deserve to haunt you, instead he should have been punished. You did the right thing by telling and you should be proud of yourself for not being silent.\nPlease go your parents or another trusted adult and let them know how you feel. You need to go thru counseling and a support group to help you and how your feeling. \n\nI wish you the best of luck!

Maybe you could invite a friend over. Maybe you could talk to someone you trust about your fear of going over a mile away from your house. You could look into school activities or programs where you could meet other kids. I hope you will improve your life. You are the only one who can :)

It's not that scary, but when I was 4 or 5 yrs. old, I remember I walked into my house after coming home from Chuck E. Cheese. I laid down on my couch and for some reason, I HAD to look at the window, so I did. I saw some devilish lookig thing there that had teeth coming from the bottom of its mouth and two little horns. It had sort of large nose as well. I screamed and went to my dad and brother and started to cry 'cuz I got the $hit scared out of me! I kept on pointing to where it was and they thought I was talking about some roses in a vase. I looked at my dad and back at the window and it was gone. I'm now 15 yrs. old and a sophore in high school. About a few years ago, I started getting more into ghosts and why they appear, etc.. I guess that only babies/toddlers/kids could see them easily while adults have a harder time. I'm not bothered by it at all now. Up until I was about 14 1/2, I kept on wanting to keep the light on or the t.v. on in my room before I go to sleep because I was afraid of ghosts. That bit(h had kept me traumatized for years! But now, I just "the hell wit' this" and I'm able to sleep in complete darkness without anything bothering me.

I am in absolutely no danger of coming down with that phobia! (Unfortunately.)\n\nWe always check the kids halloween candies very carefully before allowing the kids to get into them. We throw out everything that doesn't have an intact wrapper. And all wrappers are checked for air leaks by squeezing. If the wrapper puffs up like a squeezed balloon when squeezed, it means it's still air tight. If it's not it goes in the garbage. You can't poison candy without first gaining access to it.
