I'm surprised to see that they haven't assigned this sub-group to the Autism constellation. Autism is such a common diagnosis these days. One thing to note, any actual medical diagnosis of this sort will always bring government funding to help with the education of these 'special' kids. I'm getting burned out on all the funding access scams.
Spirit Guide to bustling group of young Indigoes: "OK, this way, children, we are going to see the Egress".
Children: "Yippee, the Egress! I want to be first! No, me first, me first!"
25 years ago some friends of ours spent about $25,000 on their "gifted" child for special classes. The kid was about 3 years old and was "so bright". The parents kept this special treatment until they let him drop out of school at age 17. Boredom is so traumatic you know.
The now 30 year-old works in a factory for $6.00 and drives a pick-up and hits the bars on Friday night -- all while still sucking his parents dry of cash.
"The Midwich Cuckoos" meets "The Crysalids"! Telepathic energy-speakers are amongst us!
Are these kids a reincarnation of the Purple People Eaters?
Her daughter Alexandra, 10, is also an indigo, she said. They play games to cultivate their telepathic powers, but at school Alexandra struggles, Piper said. "She has trouble finishing work in school and wants to argue with the teacher if she thinks she's right," Piper said. "I don't think she's found out what her gifts are."
Something tells me that this is just another way to re-define ill behavior in children, so that it becomes a virtue.
Oh, save us, Indigo children!
It is incredible how persistent this "world peace" utopianism is among educated adults...and, usually, these are the same people who scoff at the religious faithful. I attended a party at the house of a friend's mother who is about 60 and a unitarian, and instead of an American flag she displays a flag with a space photo of the earth on it.
I do agree with one thing, though...parental time and attention are still, as always, the most important ingredient to good parenting.
Very interesting - thanks!
When he's older, he'll get his attitude adjustment.
LOL!
that was my first thought when i read this story, and i agree with you - i love my three asd kids to death, but i wouldn't wish that challenge on anyone!
"I had a friend who took my family portrait to a new age person. She said that my son, my daughter and myself were all indigo humanists, whatever that means."
Well, what are you waiting for? Form a non-profit organization, write a book, and apply for any and all federal research funding! How often is a Golden Egg dropped in your lap? LOL!
What a bunch of hooey. Some kids are just nuts. I raised three boys; I can testify. ;)
"I'm bored...."
"Me too...."
"Yawn..."
A child-centered home. My telepathic powers predict plenty of visits from the police and a constant lack of employment.
Oh you're bad.
But three Leifs do.
My wife is a teacher and today's parents blame all problems on the teacher -- never, never on the kid or the kid's manners.
If your kid is having a problem in school then blaming it on the teacher robs your kid of an important life lesson in coping skills. If your kid can't cope with -- unfair grading and unfair treatment in dicipline they won't get far in the working world.
