If you have any personal experiences dealing with an Indigo Child please tell me about the encounter. If you are an Indigo yourself; what are the hardships you have faced and how did you know you were an Indigo?

  1. If you approach this subject objectively and with an inquiring mind you will find there is very little to the claim that people known as "Indigos" really exist.  At most it's an arbitrary term applied subjectively.

    I can do no better than the Wiki page:

    According to psychiatric expert Russell Barkley, the New Age movement has yet to produce empirical evidence of the existence of Indigo children and the 17 traits most commonly attributed to them were so vague they could describe "most of the people most of the time" and put him in mind of the Forer effect. Barkley also expressed concern that labeling a disruptive child an "indigo" may delay proper diagnosis and treatment that may help the child.  Other have advised that many of the traits of indigo children could be more prosaically interpreted as simple arrogance and selfish individualism, which parents with New Age beliefs see as being something that they are not.

  2. Personally,I think Indigo Children is an especially silly concept.Here's some information on them.

  3. No..I don't know that much about them.

    Just google ..There's lots of information on them.I guess it's all in who you believe. There's a poster on here who says she's one. Maybe she'll answer later. She's in a different time zone .  I don't know if there are MORE psychic children now..or if they're just free to come out of the closet now. Such a scare with the Salem witch trials probably kept most psychics quiet.Maybe parents are paying more attention to paranormal things now and have noticed this happening with more and more children.

  4. I agree with the poster above: "Indigo Children" are just people whose parents couldn't believe they weren't extra-special in some mystical way.

  5. I hope you plan on being objective and include the opposite side of the story - that is, that "Indigo Children" are nothing more than spoiled children who were convinced by their parents that they were psychic simply because the parents couldn't comprehend any other reason why their children were so misbehaved. Critics consider it New Agey nonsense, especially since none of these "Indigo Children" have demonstrated that they are the least bit different than other children, except perhaps in terms of their social behavior.

    The link below will give you plenty of information on so-called Indigo Children.
