A child smoking in a dream shows the mind working through how early hopes or emerging responsibilities are being handled with quick, burning ways to find peace. This image appears when the mind is sorting through the ways in which fundamental needs for care are being met by temporary or artificial means of soothing.
The dream points to a tension between the vulnerability of what is being nurtured and the intensity of the pressure felt during the process of growth. This brings to light how the dreamer might be applying quick fixes to deeper, foundational concerns. The presence of this image reveals where a person is exchanging a need for lasting ground for a brief stillness.

Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
