I dreamt that I shot my son, but only crushed ice came out. I then went to get my wife and asked that she get a real gun that worked. On the way back to the bedroom (my son is laying in his bed) I make sure my wife knows what to do: "You'll need to take out the bullet and resuscitate him, don't forget, and are you sure you'll be able to do it?" I ask. My son is crying in hid bed and I lean close to him and tell him he's going somewhere really good and that it will be just like a long sleep, not to be scared".. then I woke up.

I have tears in my eyes typing this, I love him so much he's my best mate and the sunshine of my life... what could this possibly mean? As I can remember, my 'reason' in the dream was for him to forget something... and that this was the way to erase 'something' from his memory... we have a completely normal life; I can't for the life of me think of what I would want him to forget...
I'm gutted, please if someone can offer insight...
Thanks

It means you had a dream. Nothing more, nothing less.

The brain is amazing and can "dream up" some weird stuff.

I doubt for the most part that there is meaning in all dreams.

If a dream keeps repeating , or causes prolonged stress it might be worth looking into.
