Answer 1

What is an indigo child?

Answer 2

They have good reason not to believe you. The "Indigo Child" thing is ridiculous nonsense. It started as an attempt by New Age parents to relabel antisocial behavior in their children as some kind of "special" spiritual endowment. Now it's just an excuse to legitimize arrogant, selfish behavior. And there are no superpowers involved whatsoever.

Here's some advice: forget the Indigo Child thing. Stop trying to be special and just be yourself. Being yourself is special enough.

Answer 3

I am an indigo. Here is my perspective. THIS IS NOT A PESSIMISTIC ANSWER. I HAVE HELPFUL ADVICE IN HERE.

Honestly, you probably can't.

I am very lucky in that my mother believes in the indigo child phenomenon and doesn't simply dismiss what I say. However, she doesn't really take it seriously, either.

My father would never believe it.

So I came to a point when I no longer cared what they believed. Even if they could call me an indigo child and label me as such, that is not what makes me who I am. It is my actions, feelings, thoughts, and etc. that make me "me." So I no longer expect them to get it.

Also, indigo children are not a species. It is not genetic. It is not supernatural. We are just people that think a bit higher than others. So you can tell them you are an indigo child, but you are applying a somewhat abstract label to yourself.

My advice to you is to realize that you cannot prove anything like that to them. You can prove that you are open-minded, caring, aware of the world, and other things, but you can't prove the more spiritual aspects of being an indigo. So don't try to convince them. Try to find who you are, not who the indigos are.

Answer 4

Live your life as normal, there is no need to prove anything to anyone. Every person has been given different gifts. There are always those who want to label you and lead you into their world of new age c**p. If the Lord shows you something it is for a reason just pray on it. Just be good at giving honorable, wise advise and answers when you have insight/gut feelings in to an issue.

Answer 5

you can show them better than you can tell them.  just document your experiences in a spiral notebook and then note when they are confirmed.  when i was a kid i always knew when there would be a major earthquake.  i started writing it down before it happened.  i would have someone in my family initial it and date it.  then when it happened i had proof of my ability to predict.  i wish you well.

Answer 6

Start buy telling your closest friends/family who will understand what your saying even if they dont agree with it.  You dont want to scare anyone so the best way to do that is to listen to warning signs about who and when to talk to not that you have to follow thouse warning signs.  For me I'm just gona be happy knowing I am something like an indigo child and know that other people will realize it in time.

Answer 7

hey I was born with gills how do you think I feel????????

Answer 8

I think a visit to a spiritualist church might affirm this

also amazon.com should have some books on it

Answer 9

peacemaker35,just look for someone in your family,and share

your thoughts about the indigo behavior in you,or talk to your

mother,she will listen to you,that is for sure,and you will feel better about yourself,after all you are kind of special

Answer 10

There is a book, a seminal work that defined Indigo Children.  Ask your library to get a copy and give it to your parents.  How did you determine that you are?

Answer 11

First, there is no scientific proof that this even exists. So be prepared for them to think you are nuts. Just because you have the gift of empathy.. (which I do) doesnt mean its some magical thing... there is no magic in this world, once you see the universe scientificly, constants here are constants everwhere in the universe ... unfortunately religion has everyone blind to this...

Answer 12

take them to this website...halexandria.org...indigo children are explained in detail there.  btw...i have two...

Answer 13

They probably know you're "special".....

An Indigo child is one who displays a new and unusual set of psychological attributes and shows a pattern of behavior generally undocumented before. This pattern has common unique factors that suggest that those who interact with them (parents, in particular) change their treatment and upbringing of them in order to achieve balance.  To ignore these new patterns is to potentially create imbalance and frustration in the mind of this precious new life.   The subject of this chapter is to identify, qualify, and validate the attributes of an Indigo Child.

There seems to be several kinds of Indigos, and we will describe them later in this chapter, but in the following list we can give you some of the most common behavioral patterns.  Do these fit anyone you know?

The ten most common traits of Indigo Children:

1.  They come into the world with a feeling of royalty (and often act like it).

2.  They have a feeling of "deserving to be here," and are surprised when others don't share that.

3.  Self-worth is not a big issue.  They often tell the parents "who they are."

4.  They have difficulty with absolute authority (authority without explanation or choice).

5.  They simply will not do certain things; for example - waiting in line is difficult for them.

6.  They get frustrated with systems that are ritual-oriented and don't require creative thought.

7.  They often see better ways of doing things, both at home and at school, which makes them seem like "system busters" - (nonconforming to any system).

8.  They seem antisocial unless they are with their own kind.  If there are no others of like consciousness around them, they often let no other human understand them.  School is extremely difficult for them socially.

9.  They will not respond to "guilt" discipline - (Wait till you father gets home and finds out  what you did").

10. They are not shy in letting you know what they need.

Answer 14

Indigo Children are supposed to have certain abilities. Maybe you can use these abilities to prove to friends and family that you are.

Answer 15

The only true test to see if someone is an indigo child is if they use correct english when saying it.

If they say "A indigo" child then they are not one, but if they say"An indigo child" then they are the real thing.

A true indigo child could never accept using incorrect english let alone let it be seen that they wrote it or typed it where it could be seen by everyone.

You have to judge yourself.

Answer 16

Try getting some books for them to read, there are many publishe articles and books.

If you possess the ability, Sit them down and ask them to think of something in their head, reveal it to them after.

** be sure that before you discuss this with them you asked to be taken seriously.

Answer 17

Be yourself and if people don't believe you then you know what.....let them think what they want....the only person that you have to live with the rest of your existance is you.....Be Happy and Live your Life to the Fullest.

Answer 18

Prove it to them, and they will believe you. Show them a list of noticablly siginificant facts - and then explain.

If you are able to justify your answers with evidence provided they may have no choice but to believe you afterall.

Answer 19

An Indigo is:

They come into the world with a feeling of royalty (and often act like it)

They have a feeling of "deserving to be here," and are surprised when others don't share that.

Self-worth is not a big issue. They often tell the parents "who they are."

They have difficulty with absolute authority (authority without explanation or choice).

They simply will not do certain things; for example, waiting in line is difficult for them.

They get frustrated with systems that are ritually oriented and don't require creative thought.

They often see better ways of doing things, both at home and in school, which makes them seem like "system busters" (nonconforming to any system).

They seem antisocial unless they are with their own kind. If there are no others of like consciousness around them, they often turn inward, feeling like no other human understands them. School is often extremely difficult for them socially.

They will not respond to "guilt" discipline ("Wait till your father gets home and finds out what you did").

They are not shy in letting you know what they need.

My thoughts would be for you to step down, and let those around you modify your thoughts and actions. Being Imperial will serve no good if it opens the door to scorn and hate.

Answer 20

If you really posses "special powers" what am I thinking of besides how stupid this idea of indigo children is.

This thought that I am thinking of right now as I types this.

Answer 21

tell them that you're proud of your purpleness, and that nothing they do can change your mind, I mean come on not everyone can be a perfect cyan.

Answer 22

The only way you can have them believe you is to show them, show them your strenghts, if you really are an indago child then you would have some kind of strength ( mental or phisical)

Because so many people do not agree or believe the idea of indigo children it is hard for them to understand, just try sitting down with your parents and disussing this matter. If you can show them what makes you and indigo child then they would have no choice but to believe you.

Answer 23

In my experience, its impossible to make others believe something if they are not ready to believe it, and or it does not have any basis within their own personal belief system. (I find this to be especially true when connecting with people who are very firm in traditional faiths such as Catholicism)

Also, what they believe about you are also affects what they believe about themselves. So this also has some bearing on it as well. Maybe they need to believe you are a certain way, so that no changes are required of themself?

What is important is for you to live your own truth. Be who you believe you are, and always strive to improve yourself and your own understanding. Try to find new friends who understand you and to whom you can feel a connection with.

The only other advice I have is for you to have lots of Patience for your existing friends and family. It may be a big leap for them to come to this understanding.

Try to be open and non-judgemental so that others feel comfortable to ask you questions about your beliefs in their own time -when they are ready.

But if you live your life in truth and honesty, ultimately they will respect you and care for you even if they never truly understand.

I hope that helps.

Peace!

Answer 24

make a list of things to convince them.

Answer 25

There is definitely an evolution of consciousness happening on this planet.  If they aren't willing to accept this or even contemplate the notion, then say your goodbyes now as they will not be here in the future.  Just like the neanderthal man went extinct because they refused, or were unable to adapt, so will those who have closed their minds to this awakening.

Answer 26

If I where you I'd start out by informing them first.  Like maybe at the next family gathering bring a book about indigo children and tell them you've been reading something very interesting and ask if anyone has heard of indigo children.  Try to get there interest up so maybe as you get each of them informed then you can tell them so they can understand what your talking about.   You should most def. tread very carefully.  Somethings are best left unsaid unless you feel that you must tell them.  Good luck.

Answer 27

1st.. you must make sure the people you try to tell know what an indigo child is. And then suggest to them that maybe you are one and see how they react..If they seem open to the ideal then by all means talk about it.. if not then dont try to convince them. Some people dont and will never believe.

Answer 28

Dont bother you will just leave yourself open for ridicule.

Find yourself a support group of people who are like you and enjoy their company. You dont need grief

Answer 29

There's no such thing. It was an invention of a parent to make a misfit kid feel better.

Answer 30

Why don't you just go to the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning, then start bringing your friends home during your vacations? That should make a fairly clear statement...

Answer 31

Let me repeat a wise old saying in regards to this question:  It is better to keep your mouth closed and be thought of as a fool than to open your mouth and be known as one.  That's all I've got to say about this subject.
