This creeps me out!!

This was on Pinterest getting pinned over and over. I get that it's like your child in the past, but I wouldn't want to think of my child as a "ghost" ever.

I love little ghost decorations and I'd let my kid dress up as one, but this is freaking me the F out!! I have no idea why.

Re: This creeps me out!!

  • I like the ghost footprint craft idea.  I have it pinned as well.  I don't know if it's this exact one, but it's similar.  I think what's creepy about this one is that it's titled "The Ghost of..."  When I do it for Gabby and Genna I will just put there names under each of their footprints.  But it's the whole "ghost of...." thing that is weird.
  • I agree.  I think a ghostie made of a child's footprint is cute.  Putting the title, "Ghost of" makes me think that the child is dead.  (((shivers)))
  • I think that's exactly what's giving me the heebie jeebies! It's the "ghost of" line. You guys figured it out for me!

  • awww we used to make these with the kds at daycare but we never wrote "The ghost of..." We would  display them on a board that said something like "Our little ghouls and boys/goblins" or  we used plays on words like mummy/mommy

  • That's some bad ju-ju right there. I'm very superstitous, and would never think of connecting my child to a ghost.

    On that note, I think it's cute, and I'd probably just leave off the names all together, and just make it "you" or something quirky

  • i just don't find it attractive.
