My Aunt said, when I was little (like, not even two years), and left in a room alone, I would freak out. They'd come in and find me looking towards a window or wall, and I was terrified. My obsession with aliens and psychic abilites that followed as a kid was just as strange to her. She's pretty sure I was abducted, and knowing some beautiful alien in this galaxy may be holding my child makes me feel all warm, and tingly (and slimey) inside.
