Yes, that's right. A psychic who reads the minds of babies. Derek Ogilvie stopped by this morning to talk with Ann about his psychic gifts. WATCH VIDEO. He claims to have had psychic abilities since he was 8 years old, and he is now in tune with what babies are thinking. According to our analysis of some of his readings, about 75% of what he says has been confirmed by the parents who bring their babies to his readings. Derek also claims that some kids are more "talkative" than others. He can communicate with 7 or 8 babies out of every 10 that he reads. He also says that there is a natural progression throughout the course of his sessions. That is, the kids will start out by telling him fairly commonplace things (e.g. what their house looks like, or things they see about their parents), but later in the reading or in a subsequent reading, the kids really, in his words, "spill the beans." His theory is that babies absorb the memories of their parents, and can then convey these memories about their parents to him.
Personally, I would never go to a psychic. To some degree, I honestly wouldn't want to hear what they have to say about me. I think I'd become preoccupied with whatever they said, and find myself obsessing over it. Also, I'm not convinced that these practices are even for real. It definitely is controversial, that's for sure. So what do you think about psychics? Would you ever bring your baby to a baby medium, to see what he or she is thinking? Is it ethical? Is it right on? Let us know what you think.
