Ok Let me just start off by asking you do you have any young cousins brothers sisters etc.? well if there under 5 do they have an imaginary friend? Now I dont mean the kind where they have like 5 and they barley ever talk about them. I mean when they always talk about this person like there so real well listen to my story and than figure out is your family`s friend imaginary or a ghost? Ok when my cousin was about 4 or 5 he had this imaginary friend. He would always talk about this friend. He brought him to dinner and all these other places. Well one time he took him to my grandma`s and you know i sat down next to him in the car and he started screaming and crying and trying to punch me etc. Im like what the heck is wrong hes like your hurting him stop it and he was so serious. (has that ever happened to you) Ok anyways his brother is older (14)...and he doesn`t believe any of this shit...but he was in his room one day looking into a mirror when he saw a little african american boy standing behind him. My cousin got so freaked out that he had that mirror taken out of his room. He wouldn`t look into one for months. So Finally my family had enough they went to this meduim and (my cousin was not in the room while talking with her) She said like oh yes your son`s friend is real. and she told us how he died and he was african american he was young boy and he died he was burried in the cemetary nex to ther house. they asked my cousin whats his name was and than they asked the meduim they both got the same answer..and they kept doing that for a while with the same answers. Well than she did this thing tomake all the ghosts go away and I dont even think he remembers him any more. But the reason is the ghosts come to little kids is because they like believe everything you know they love to have friends etc. Also once they are like 7 they leave them. Ghosts talk to people because there lonley and they need a friend. Well does your young family member have an "imaginary friend"
