i was in south america and landed in the hospital one day after passing out from low blood sugar, and my mom knew something was wrong reached out to people i was staying with.
there are so many examples of this, that now as an adult when I meet friends who had parents who let them get away with way too much. How can you let your kids out into the world without knowing who they are hanging out with and what they are doing on an intuitive level.
this "telepathy" also isn't very specific. It's more like a mood or just a ping and in that way it doesn't seem useful to me.
