My daughter had voices in her head for a bit as she grew up. The professional advice we got is that it is common in children, but diminishes as they age. Most adults do not hear voices. And even the ones that do are normally just verbalization of their own thoughts.

But we were warned that if they didn't fade, or they were being negative or harmful, that is a red flag that should invoke some action.
