Guys, I don't want to argue anymore, but if you really think impersonating someone else's child for years because you want a family is normal i'm worried for you, i mean such a behaviour is just sick and egotistical and any normal person would just tell the parents as soon as possible or simply disappear from their lives instead of continuing with years of lies. Imagine if YOUR son wasn't actually your son, but a middle aged stranger, and thus all that you think about him was a lie and you don't know him at all. He deceived you constantly for years and the bond that you think you have is just in your mind because not once was he being genuine with you. And this person for years acts like your child to avoid raising suspicion and lives in your home at your expense.
Of course he couldn't tell them on day 1 and risk death, but he's been a powerful and independent person with connections in high society for a while now...
Also what are you saying about everybody reincarnating? I don't know if that's your religious belief, but there's absolutely 0 scientific evidence of that ever happening on earth so i call BS on your data about it.
can you imagine if 3 years old in our world all remembered their past lives and collectively decided to never speak about it and instead act like babies for years? Lol
Like imagine how ridiculous it would be when babies do stupid things (such as drinking soap and poisons) if they had the minds of middle aged men. They'd be like "i know i'll die if i drink this, but if babies don't do this anymore, adults will be suspicious of us and maybe find out aboit our reincarnation, which would be bad because... Reasons i guess? So i must drink this poison and die for the greater reincarnated baby-good".
