Did you know some Chinese who are involved with Buddhist rituals, people who are like mediums of the West, who allow themselves to be possessed by the deities, actually 'keep' baby souls at home?!
Sounds scary, but accordingly to someone living with the 'babies'; there is nothing horrifying about them. They are in fact, just babies who love sweets, drinks milk, and enjoy the company of other babies. Well, when they have company of more than 1 baby, it's hard not to be more playful. My sister says her baby girl, apart from being talkative herself; she actually initates talk & play with the other 'babies'! Baby Joelle can wake up at 4am for milk, and end up sleeping at only 8am! You can see her mumuring to herself for that 4hrs.. and we know, she's also talking to her 'friends'..
My mum being the more supersitious type, hates Baby Rianne to be in the same house with the 'babies'. She thinks there might be a clash of characters, and she simply says Rianne is not 'suitable' to be there. Suitable? Sounds daft, and whenever I told my sister my mum's comment, she would be so pissed. Of course she would be as we are so very close, even after her marriage; we would still try to stay in touch often.
Every single time when we visited my sister at her house, my mum would return home with non-stop grumbling! Rianne would be a little cranky, and that gives ANNIE MUMMY a good reason to blame it on the 'babies'. Sigh, don't people in their 50s ever believe in facts?!
