I had a dream about my daughter.She is 2 1/2 and in the dream, her, me and my boyfriend had bought a new car.We brought it to this mechanic place, and these three mexicans that were going to fix it.They were playing with my daughter and she was having a hay day.They said they had to go into this room to fix the part and my daughter wanted to go with. I said it was fine and they were in the room forever.Finally my boyfriend yelled at them to hurry and they came out.My daughter had a hand on her privates and she was crying.The three men had these smirkes on their faces and I was so angry.I grabbed one of them and started hitting his head on the concrete.He pulled out a butterfly knife and held it to my stomach and said he'd kill me.I told him he better or I'd kill him and I woke up.I started crying and had to ask my boyfriend if we'd bought a new vehicle.I felt sick, like I had failed to protect my daughter.

This is a personal fear that you are working out in your subconscious. It has to do with trust and boundary's.
How much do we trust, and where do we draw the boundary's. What you are seeking is the understanding of a very old question. Are people basically bad, or are they basically good but make mistakes occasionally and how do we know when they can be trusted.
Having the responsibility of caring for a child has added a new dimension to this understanding you are working to realize.
I can't help you to over come this fear nor can I answer this question for you. This you must do for yourself.
I can tell you that your daughter is safe because she is lucky enough to have a mom like you. A mom who is working to keep her safe and secure while she is awake and while she is asleep.
Thanks for being the mom that you are.
Love and blessings Don

Was the Mexican part really necessary? Then you topped it off with the whole butterfly knife thing. You're a nut.
Anyway...dreams do have meaning in my opinion. Whether it's a preminition or not remains to be seen. But it would be a good time to talk to your daughter about making sure no one touches her "down there". I don't think any child is too young to understand what the "no no" area is all about. My sister was molested, and often kids who are don't talk about it. They push it far back and turn into denial.
I would also advise you to never leave your child around any males. Even family male members. There are sick people in this world and yes even family members. America's Most Wanted has some really good holiday tips regarding such.
1. During the holidays we often have guests over and sometimes we don't always know them (your aunts boyfriend), whatever. Your daugther should never be a left with any stranger alone including friends of the family.
2. When in public places keep a good line of sight with your child and tell them if you're ever separated, stay in the same general area because that's where you'd be looking for her.
That sort of stuff.
The dream could be a warning, or maybe you've had thoughts that someone tried, attempted, or made you feel really uncomfortable around your daughter. Since your boyfriend is Mexican, maybe the dream centered around someone in his family that was near your child recently. Or even him (god forbid).
Talk to your daughter, ask her if anyone has ever touched her there. Explain to her that it's the "no no" area and that if anyone every attempts to touch her their she should say I need to tell my mom and make sure you have a clear line of communication.

This is what i think about it... seems that you love your daughter very much and you are probably very protective of her.
You might have been either reading or watching something too do with child molester's either the night before or the day before.. in which you more than likely absorbed something along the lines of a Mexican mechanic.. i dont believe it will come to pass and even if it was 2 come 2 be i believe you have been warned and be very cautious as this world is just a sad place and the threat of molester's is very real hope this help's..

Maybe you did see into the future or you are picking up some bad vibes and hostile, violent intentions towards your daughter. My advice is to be very protective of your daughter especially from the men in your life but from everybody else as well. I wouldn't ignore this dream but do not become too paranoid about the dream but watch out for your daughter.

You must love your daughter very much. And you are concerned for her.
I think you know that you should keep her close and protect her. Be vigilant about her care and watchful of those with whom she comes into contact, whether it is someone you know or whether it is a stranger.
Maybe someone you have seen or met has given you an uneasy feeling. If that is so, you should not ignore that feeling, but remain cautious.
Best wishes to you and your daughter.

You are feeling anxious about the way you are going to raise your daughter. You know that someday she is going to want something that she thinks will make her happy and because it would, you might be persuaded to allow her, only this thing she wanted would be bad for her. And because you gave in, you would blame yourself and feel that others are blaming you.
Also, you are concerned about society and how you'll raise your child in it. There are bad people all around and you yourself an adult do not know who to trust, how can you trust them with your daughter? You know you'd do anything to protect your daughter but are afraid that despite your best efforts you'll make a mistake and damage her nonetheless.

Oh my goodness that must have been really scary, I wouldn't pay any attention to the incindent with your daughter but personally I think that your father is right about paying close attention to people and I also think that this means you should be more protective of your daughter, I'm sure you take good care of your daughter but it would be safer to keep a close eye on her.

dreams are just dreams cuz. by many things if you think about what had happen that day before your dream that would cuz a dream like that .it could have been something you ate or a movie you seen. but i wouldn't take the dream litely it could be a wake up call to be less trusting of people no matter what the race is.

I don't think that your dream is about future, I think it is about what there is deeply hidden in your soul.
I don't want to offence you, but it seems to me that you are afraid about what could happened between your boyfriend and your daughter.
I mean you afraid that your daughter could be attacked by your boyfriend anytime ... that he could have the same comportment as the Mexicans had - but you don't have the courage to recognise that in reality ... so you created a dream in which other Mexicans (the same ethnic group by whom your boyfriend belongs to) ... proving that they are capable to act like this.
Try to be realistic, to see your boyfriend as he really is.
You don't need to hide your judgements behind your dreams, you have to be lucidly to protect your daughter.
