Whenever I asked my son to take me something in our room upstairs, he always said "Mom, I can't, I'm so scared..." "Hey, honey, you are a man now. Why you are still afraid of ghosts and darkness like a little child?" It makes me a bit annoyed but I don't know how to get him out of this fear. Till now though he is 9 years old, in the night he cries for help in his nightmare sometimes.
In fact, no one of us have no fear. The more we grow up, the more fears we have. As about me, beauty, health, ages, work pressure, family and myself... many things to think about. And there are also some other fears that are not easy to be named, which might be the most horrible items in my memory. After experiencing some things in life, I'm aware that human being may be the most lovely and scary creature on earth compared to any other ones... Things is how to face with your fears and lead the happy life as it should be?
You can give me plenty of useful pieces of advice, I know. But at least what I can do when my son scream of fear in the night next time is holding him tight in my arm and say, " Honey, don't worry, I'm here..."
Then, by that way, my fears would be faded away...

Wow amazing quote, Tawfeed, and its so true... for me. Thanks for being my friend and leaving your nice comment here.
It is justifiable problem, all little children fear of darkness. I like this quotation “ We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light. Plato
Hi Kiriku!
Yes, It is a good quote.
Dear Saba, you are so true, but this is simply it, I remember a quotes saying we will fear less when we understand more, it is that what you mean, right?
Hi Kiriku!
The fear from darkness is natural among children....as they grow up, they can overcome their fear more easily......but about adult's fear from aging and losing their beauty, I think adults should accept that aging is a natural process of everyone's life, and they should not be worry to face this process.
@anah siq : You are right, thanks for your support, I really aprreciate it
@noas: I perfectly agree with you and I hope to do it tooo. Thanks for your valuable comment
@ my dear friend Estanis, you know, I don't complain about my son at all, he is just a small reason to start a blog as you see, it's all mine ... :)
@ viviana, thanks so much for your encouragement
@ Pixary no one is toooo old for being helped when needed, you know what, my father now is 75 years old but sometimes in the night, when he was screaming, my mother came over and said "Wake up, it's just a dream".
Very nice subject. I think people are afraid to speak about their own fears. So, you are already strong because you overcome one of them :)
As for me, you can't imagine how afraid I am when have to deal with my daily bills (and I won't tell you about my falling hair)
Well, all joking aside, I'm sure your child have a huge support in his mother although not smaller than the one you have with him. Mothers have an special feeling and connection with their children that make all fears disappear, so don't think too much in that fears not to make them bigger and face all them knowing that you're stronger than them and that you're not alone :)
