Now the idea that their child might be an "indigo" has started to appeal to many parents, and why shouldn't it? Many kids (and unfortunately the rest of us) today are subject to the Baby Jesus syndrome by their parents, where everything they do is special and magical. I am not trying to sound like a jerk, because I think the qualities of sensitivity and creativity, supposed traits of an Indigo, are a blessing and should be encouraged in everyone. However, some of the other qualities listed, such as:
- They feel like royalty and deserve to be here
- They are full of self-worth
- They have difficulty with absolute authority
- They will not respond to "guilt" discipline
There is more and more buzz about this type of personality, with web sites, books, and seminars - it will be interesting to see if this is the second wave of Boomeresque child-rearing principles. I do not yet have a child, but, indigo or not, I think we will be following the advice of mom.
I can't find the article online, but here is a link to a website about Indigo Children: http://www.indigochild.com/

Sounds like the parents drank the special "Indigo" Kool Aid. I bet a spinal tap of one of these weirdos would provide material for prolonged and intense research in the medical community. What a bunch of morons. We're all going to hell. You know what would be cool is if there were "Wendigo" children, like the mythological Native American cannibal, and they ate all the "Indigo"
children.
Cool blog Annie.
Oh, I have to be a blogger to leave a comment?
