and not sure what I am looking for really, maybe an answer on how to best handle my oldest son. He has a real problem with large crowds and so school is horrible for him, since 2 yrs old he has sensed people and told me who he liked and did not like and later found out he was pretty dead on as far as a judge of character. It has just occurred to me and my husband that maybe a classroom of 22 kids is too much for him to handle, he has been to several psychologists who want him medicated to calm him down... saying he is ADHD, I don't think he is. He is above his class as far as academics and is very well behaved in Sunday school and other SMALL functions. I am just trying to find a way to help him before this becomes damaging to his self esteem with being in trouble all the time. Thanks for listening to me rant, if anyone has any advice I would be thrilled to hear it. Nicole

I would suggest reading about Indigo Children. It is simply a theory, but it has helped me better understand myself and my daughter, who is 5. I feel very easily stimulated by people and events. I get stressed very easily by the news, because of such a high level of empathy for people. I have a strong sense of self and a stong intuition about people. I have always felt like a social outcast and struggled with this in school. I always felt "different". I am intelligent but i dont feel it has been recognized trhough standard I recommend looking into how to treat ADD or ADHD with diet...or alternative options. It seems to me that so many things can be helped thorugh diet rather than medication. Its a good practice to try alternatives first, especially with children.

Thanks April :) we have tried modifying his diet, it changes nothing, the only real time he gets out of control is in large groups. The newest psychologist agrees that there is no way he is ADHD, he sat perfectly still for 45 minutes and asked questions that had her impressed. She has scheduled an IQ test for January so that when I start homeschooling him next semester we know where he is academically. I do plan to pick up some info on indigo children. As for how I found this, A friend of mine suggested I google indigo kids to better find info for James since she knows and understands the family trait that has seemed to find my kids now, my mom was the one who suggested that James may be having a sensitive reaction to the other kids and his teacher as well. April, how you described yourself, you sound like me :) all my sisters have the same sensitivity, my brothers have never mentioned it, but for me, I never noticed it until JR. High... so for my son at 6 to be having these problems I am not sure how to help him sort it all out being he still does not have a good grasp on his own emotions, let alone picking up on those around him. But our first step is to get him back home full time learning and to go from there.

Hi Nicole, Have you tried to have alergic test, blood test or hair analysis test for your son? I had those for my son, the laboratories were in US. Beside it, I used elimination therapy. I elimanated food which can make him unlike usual, more tantrum or becoming hyperactive. From those test, it appeared that Maula ( my son ), is having several toxic ( cadmium, barium, potassium, mercury, lead, even uranium, and arsenic) in high level. I don't know where he got it, franlky speaking. At this moment, Maula is under going detoxcification by a homeopathy ( as I refused to give him chemical supplement/drugs, he has to many of it, why add more ), so that his metabolism system in in balance. It works a lot.

Hi Nicole -

If you haven't tried it yet, check out the instructions for teaching your child to put a protective bubble around him before leaving for school. They are posted in a couple of responses to other parents. Many Indigo children are so sensitive to the energies around them they get very stressed when they are in crowds.

Regarding the toxicity levels, an all natural over the counter product available is Chlorella. You can get it at most Whole Foods or Sprouts or other natural food stores. The only thing to look for is the words "broken cell wall" on the label. Chlorella can be taken by everyone in the family - no matter what their age - and it will aid in the elimination of toxins in the digestive system. Yes, their elimination will at some point turn green - that's ok. Have your kids take the chlorella for a minimum of 30 days and the adults for a minimum of 60 days. It is safe to take every day and is highly nutritious. The toxins can be picked up in the foods we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe. They can be passed from parent to child. They are in immunizations and genetically-modified foods. The hair analysis is the most accurate method to find out vitamin, hormone and heavy metal levels in the body.

Take your child shopping with you. Just before leaving the house, ask your child to stand with both feet together and their hands down to their sides. Have them make the statement "My name is _________", filling in the blank with their name. Notice which direction their body rocks. Most people will find that they will rock forward with a true or positive statement and rock backward with a false or negative statement. Have your child hold the food that you are going to buy or that they are asking for. Then have them ask, "is this food good for me" and notice which direction they rock. If they rock in the "positive" direction, the food is ok to purchase for them - but if they rock in the "negative direction" then you have to put the food product back on the shelf.

One great thing about involving your kids this way with the shopping is that as the parent, you are no longer the bad guy - saying NO to all the "good stuff." Their body is telling them NO.

Blessings,
Mary
