Does your kid have a SUPER POWER?

I was driving my son to school this morning and he said quick pause the radio. He said I heard a bird poop on the roof. I listen to my radio pretty loud (I know bad parenting). So the fact he could hear a bird pooping on the roof is hilarious. Not to mention he never can hear me yelling for him ever. What super power does your child claim to have?

Does his super hearing bother him? Some kids hear ordinary things in a scary and thunderous way. My adult son can enter a room and make the clock run backward. I used to not believe him until I saw it happen myself. He had two near misses with lightning strikes and I think that has something to do with it. One time was in high school. He worked for a farmer down the road and he was driving a tractor. The other time, a lightning bolt hit the sidewalk in front of him when he was walking.

That is a kind of scary power to have. I am not sure my sons super hearing is really a thing...I think it may be more of a case of super imagination.

@Meggan There are kids who do have super hearing. To some, raindrops sound like thunder and whispers like yelling. My autistic kid needed g*n muffs and dark glasses to go to the fireworks on the Fourth of July. We all went and could not leave him home alone.

Selective hearing. We all suffer from it, lol. Kids often hear things that they want to hear and drown out what they don't. Especially if they think they'll get in trouble. But, If I'm not engrossed in something, I can hear things no one else does.

I have no children, I have a very sensitive nose and good hearing but I think no one can hear a bird poop on the roof.

My hearing, sight and smell can be sensitive too. Listening to people tangling their keys hurt my ears. But, to say superpower..... How about, what I dream, is usually happens?
