In reference to those stories about children remembering past lives, I never know quite what to make of them. For one, their stories seem to be remarkable in the fact that there seems to be no way a child would be able to fabricate the stories that they're piecing together to explain their past lives. But on the other hand, their stories' are often suspiciously close to the plot of the movie "Birth".
And, well, children have wild imaginations and I'm sure it's not unlikely that a small percentage of children in any population would have a wild imagination mixed with maybe a mild level of psychosis or other abnormal behavior. Also mainstream science seems to have ignored these children. So I mostly write these stories off, but I would not be closed to them having some paranormal component to them if some more interesting information presents.
I also typically completely dismiss all paranormal stories as having physical explanations. Although I'm also open to being exposed to these types of events if they present. One day in college I was sitting in my car just waiting for a friend inside. 12 inches from my face, there was a huge explosion of water, as if a balloon exploded, which left my entire car interior drenched. It was a sunny day, windows were closed, no water, bottles, or other water sources were in my vehicle. I wasn't scared, but never have been able to explain what the causality was there. So.. Idk. If anything, that has always left my perfectly rationalizing brain to accept that we might not always know everything.
