Dear parents and loved ones of Indigos.
My name is Stephen, and I am an american living in Mexico. I am not a parent myself. My sister has 2 lovely girls who have indigo characteristics. I am constantly inspired and wowed by them
Some months ago, an experience with the girls made me think of creating a TV series with the indigo theory in the center. the idea is getting good reception from producers. I've been fully immerssed in the subject. I've read the books, and visited the websites, as I try to give birth to my own kind of indigo.
But nothing tops real life.
I am here among you with the greatest humillity and respect, hoping to hear some of your stories, hear some of your questions and concerns, as my creative work is as much about the parents as it is about the children.
I am intersted in hearing about the difficulties you've faced to raise a child who may be different than most, the challenges of behavioral problems, and routes you walked on before settling on Indigo. How is your life changed by this process? I want to hear about the process your kids have gone through as well, the difficulties and joys they face. What about extraordinary talents?
As you can imagine, I am very eager to hear your stories about psychic abilities some of your kids have. I've heard some amazing ones, but I want to hear more! Auras, past lives, mind reading, spirits of the deceased, angels, communicatng with animals, are some of the abilities I have heard some indigos possess. Do any of those hold true for your child? Any others?
I think we have a lot of ingredients to create a show that tells interesting and engaging stories.
I am most grateful for your replies

HI, I read about Indigos before having my first child, and have been seeing these qualities pop up in each child that I have had (ive got 3). My 2 girls fit better in this category than my son. They have been very connected to me emotionally. Even when babies, if I had a nightmare, they would wake up screaming. When they began to talk, they would "read my mind" vocalizing exactly what I was thinking. This happens quite often. My oldest daughter (who is 7) has dreams at night very similar to the ones that I have. She also insists that she can talk to animals and is obsessed with all animals. She would live in grandmas barn if we let her! She learned to read at 4 years old and now reads 4th and 5th grade chapter books.
They are all 3 very gifted with great long term memories, they suprise me all the time with "remember when..." and itll be something that happened when they were one year old, or they will remember places we visited when they were this young.
My youngest (3 years old) is the most indigo. She is very nurturing, and gives all to others. She knows exactly how things should be ran and organized and gets frustrated when people dont do what they should the right way. This can be a problem with 2 other kids in the house and the rules of Mommy. We have to explain why we she has to follow our rules very detailed before she will agree with us. Threats of discipline do nothing.
My son is being labled by others as ADHD. He is extremely intelligent.
My biggest challenge is finding the right school. I would love to home school, but am in school full time myself to get my teaching degree. After i get my degree i would love to start a charter school for indigo children, but have had no luck finding anyone else interested.
Hope this helps!

Stephen,
Good to see you doing your work all the way in Mexico! Ha! I remember feeling so limited when our family was there last year, the energy seemed so heavy...Anyway I can talk a little about my children's abilities, but what I am really intersted in is starting some dialogue about charter schools for our children because these abilities can and will be lost if we send them to our public schools! (that is what I have experienced with my oldest daughter)
Marissa has always been somewhat of an attractor for other girls, could bring together a group of diverse girls in no time...very in tune to my needs, would insist on doing things that I had thought of doing but didn't have the guts to start (one summer we had a girls club), vocalizes my thoughts still...
Sol Nayelli is my 5 year old who does the same, vocalizes my thoughts, very in tune to what the eyes say, and animals seem to come to her. We are working on manifesting a tree house and so she is drawing pictures of it and made a flag...the flag was a rainbow! She bumps into other like minded children and it is like they have been friends forever, like they have been waiting for each other...I think that they are all connected and know this!...
Ernesto my 4 year old son is hyper and distractable, talks about past life experiences, can remember where anything is at in the house...
Joseph, 2 years old has wise eyes, doesn't speak much vocally, yet will go around saying positive words when I am stressed like, "happy-happy" or has also pointed to the middle of my forehead, saying "eye" (third eye) and kissing it.
All of my children do me favors like reminding me to slow down and get connected with my spirit just by doing simple things like smelling the flowers or looking at things from their point of view. I believe that we have been blessed by these children and we owe it to them to build places and curriculums that will focus on their strengths and show them how to use them to make the world a better place!
If anyone is interested in helping out, please contact me!
Blessings!

Good Afternoon,
what you are doing is such a great idea. Alot more people have got to know about these types of kids, and parents of these kids need to know how to deal with them. First off I would like to say that I have 2 daughters, one 7 years old and 1 is 14 mths old. They are 2 VERY different individuals. My 7 year old Jessalyn is an indigo child. I fould out when she was 2 year of age and started to see spirits and angels. I of course thought boy, does she quite an imagination. To my surprise it never left her. She always see them. We can walk into a house and she will say, "mommy this is a good house" or on the contrary say"mommy I want to leave, this is a bad house" When she was two we live here in Maple Ridge BC. We lived in a 12 year old house. Her playroom was downstairs but there was no way that Jessalyn would go down there alone. "Tommy" whom was burnt from head to toe was a nice spirit but looked very scary apparently. I really never thought anything of it as I think that I was trying to avoid this. 1 year later I went to see a psychic. I brought along Jessalyn. She was 3 at the time, and during this time she had an imaginary friend named George. He was very real to Jessalyn. When he walked in our front door everyday at the same time 4:16p.m she would run to the door and say "Hey George how was your day" Well I finally figured out this time after about 3 weeks. He was coming home from work. There would be some evenings when he would come home late because he went to the pub after work (lol). When I went to psychic she had to ask Jessalyn to leave as her 3rd eye was obsorbing all of her energy. She then told me that "a guy named george used to be your daughters husband in a previous life" I almost fell off my chair.Years went by and she began school. She did very good in her 2 years of preschool and havent heard too much about spirits or imaginary friends, but she then took on a great interest in wildlife such as snails, worms, butterflies, even collecting rocks. She loves any type of animal. Now she is 7, I could go through every year of her life but there is just too much to tell. Just this past year she has been drawing pictures of the angels that live in our new house. There is one "scary man" as she would put it that is among the angels. He stands behind the fridge in the suite downstairs and he has a wire going through his eye, he has a daughter that is burnt and she is in front of the fridge. My husband and I figure an electrical fire. She talks to angels every night. She is starting to have problems in school because she thinks that she should not have to do this work. She knows more then what we know when it comes to the future. She thinks that school is a waste of time.......... it scares me because like I said she know what the future is bringing to us. Her teacher does not explain to her why she can not do this or why she cant do that. My daughter is an excellent child at home so it was confusing me why she was not a good girl at school. After a couple teacher interviews I came to the conclusion that her teacher was not giving her the respect that we did as a family. We explain to her why she can not do certain things and tell her what would happen if she did. We treat her with respect and talk to her with respect. She is like a little adult in a childs body. She is a lost soul alot of our friends call her. I have finally come to realize she definatly is an indigo child, there is no doubts about that. My main concern was how the rest of her life with be when we can't always be there to explain things to her. Her work she does is perfect, but a school when she gets frustrated with her teacher because she talks to her like a little baby, she slacks. I had to tell her teacher that she is like an adult, she responds better when you treat her like an adult instead of a baby. The was a little weird for the teacher to take in but it has worked tremendously. In closing I think that every indigo child is the same in lots of ways but also very unique in there own ways. Jessalyn is sensitive but if she is right about something(which she usually is) she will make sure that you know.Jessalyn also feels like she does not belong. At home she is ok...........(cause we taught ourselves the best technique) but outside she feels she is so different then the rest of the kids. She knows she has a gift and I can always tell when her 3rd eye is always open........ I have learned to know my daughter better then I know my self. I would really like to hear your feed back on this and I hope this helps with your show.
Hope to talk to you soon

This is really interesting topic, thanks for starting it :)
I was told by other first that they though my child was an Indigo, I started reading a little here and there and then some of the signs showed. My daughter is 5. She can see Auras, she calls them "the colors" She doesn't see spirits as far as I know but, she has communicates with Angels, fairies and her deceased great grandma. She is also very quick to see injustices in the world. When she was 3 she told me she was going to change the world. Lately she has been liking to talk about why she choose me to be her mother :)
I feel very lucky to have her as my child! |

Ladies....
Thanks so much for your wonderful sharing. Awesome stories! I hope other members will post some more. Yes, the psychic side of indigos fascinates me, and I want to hear as much about it as possible. I also am still vey curious about the other side of the coin. Everyday difficulties with the outside world (with "muggles" as my sister calls it). What happens when a kid is diagnosed ADD/ADHD? Does the condition eventually go away without drugs? DO the kids remaindifficult for a while? The behavior part is very interesting to me.
Thanks again, and lets share more stories! |

My kids are still young and my son, who will probably be categorized as having ADHD once he starts public school next year :( is still okay in his Montessori Kindergarden. He is allowed to move around and chose his own "work" there.
From my experience with other family members and working in the schools a little myself (someone correct me if Im jumping the gun) is that the "condition" is not something wrong with the child, it is that the school system and/or society is not set up in a way that meets thier needs. Most people I know who were diagnosed ADD or ADHD as kids, once out of school (and many did not graduate), are completely fine. They are able to pick a job that suits them, learn quickly, and multitask. |

| Yes, everyday difficulties with so-called "normal" people...like the people in public who stare and judge us because my son has to explore every aspect of his surroundings...the look in some people's eyes is like my son is just rotten...judging him based on what they think a child should be like! This has a negative affect on our family b/c my husband doesn't understand how special he is...just focuses on what the outside world thinks. Also my daughter who naturally manifests her wishes...she just says that she wants something and it appears within a month...well she manifested a Chiuaua puppy (it was gifted to her by a coworker of my husband) and I was commenting on this to an aquaintance of mine...and her reply was, "That's weird." How do we protect our children and their abilities from these situations? |

I am not sure if my son is an indigo or not. He was diagnosed with ADHD when he was 4, then anxiety disorder as the ADHD portion seemed to go away but he couldn't make friends and was terrified of making a mistake and having a lot of nightmares and headaches. Now it looks like bipolar disorder.
He is very sensitive and gets depressed easily. He is extremely opinionated and will only do things his way. As they get older, it isn't always possible to explain to them why they have to do something a particular way. For safety reasons, there isn't always time. It makes parenting a real struggle.
I was not aware of indigos when he was young. They seem to "forget" if they are not encouraged. He no longer tells me about seeing scary things in his room at night.
I took him to a psychic who told me he is continuing to have the dreams but he forgets them. He should work with crystals but he refuses. He spends a lot of time being very angry and making sure he does everything his way.
I spend a great deal of time trying to ask questions to lead him to the conclusion I want him to make. Sometimes it works, others it doesn't.
He has made several suicide attempts. He is only 11. He is exhausting. |

| So, folks.. the thread has gone quiet unfortunately. Your postings have been wonderful. Tired Mom, very much appreciate you sharing your story. So I just watched on YouTube an A&E show called "Psychic Kids". Did anyone see it? I think there is relation to the uber sensitive sie of indigos. Keep those storeis coming! |

I used to be that kid who was too depressed to be here. I was in middle school at the time. I had 3 almost suicide attempts. I say almost because my willingness to live broke through each time. I count myself as blessed.
I learned something that changed my life forever. Most if not all Indigos have had a twin in the "other-life" before Earth. Kind of like two parts that make the whole. In this dimension we call Earth, even regular twins are not as close as Indigo twins are. Because this world is divided by individual physical bodies. It makes it very hard for Indigos to properly comunicate with others. They find a subconscious need to "seek out" their "twin" in this world. When the twin cannot be found, they feel a sense of grievance, which is portrayed as depression, without even knowing it.
Learning that, I tried all sorts of meditation and integration. I learned that my "twin" is one of my guardian angels and has been with me since the begining of this life. I don't feel his presence most of the time, but just knowing I'm not alone (even though I have a wonderful loving family) makes me feel so much better.
Cummunicating with animals. ^_^ I have to laugh here. For some reason, squirrels like me. My father said it's because they know a nut when they see one (joking of course). I had one squirrel sit on my foot for 5 minutes! Not to mention, I'm 30 and have never been stung in my life. My friends call me a bee-charmer because they like to land on me and never sting. I got one caught in my pant leg and it never stung me. It just flew away. Again, my father said it was because I was too sweet. The bees just liked being near me. I love my father for his sense of humor.
I really wish I could see auras, but then again that just might scare me so I'm actually glad I can't.
