| Hi, I'm Sabrina. I just found out tonight what an Indigo Child is and I know that my 6 year old daughter Kayleigh is one. What I don't know is how to go about being a better parent for her so her life can be less stressful. Even as a baby Kayleigh would get so stressed out around new people that we couldn't go out to eat until she was three years old and it's still difficult sometimes. I need help to understand what i need to do to make all of our lives easier. |

Hi Sabrina, I can not tell you what is the right way or the wrong way to raise an indigo child, but I can tell what has worked with me. My daughter is 7 and seems like she is 67. She is like an old soul. I have accepted the way she is and I made sure to tell her that, "don't me ashamed, you can tell mommy everything and I wont get mad" I think the way that indigo children think is that they know they are different so all these things that are happening to them, ( seeing spirits, seeing the world in a different way) they think it is wrong because no one else is like that. I sat my daughter down and told her that she is just special, and never to be afraid. She has know looked at me as a great companion in all this because sometimes I will just listen to her and sometimes I will give her advise. What kind of traits does your daughter have of an indigo child??? deal with every situation 1 by 1 Hope this helps tell me more about her!!!

Elisha, thank you for your reply! Kayleigh has always had what I thought was a vivid imagination, now I know she's remembering past lives. She has a whole other family, names of parents and siblings, and a whole other life she always refers to. She sometimes will sit by the door waiting for her "other parents" to pick her up. It breaks my heart because I've been so confused by her behavior and I've tried to make her live in the now instead of always "daydreaming". Kayleigh also has been able to see spirits, but I had that same experience when I was a child so I've always nurtured that part of her personality.
When I asked her last night if she felt that she was different, she gave me a weird knowing look, then said "no, I love you so much mommy..." she totally changed the subject but I could tell there was something behind her smirk. Another thing about Kayleigh is she has such an extremely high pain tolerance that she's been hospitalized several times with things that would make a normal person cry with pain before it got to the point where they would have to be hospitalized.
There are so many things that are different about Kayleigh that I would have to write so much more and I don't want to take up too much time. I'm just so relieved that there is an explanation for her personality and that I can help to make her feel accepted. |

Hi Sabrina, I have a 5 year old indigo son, and many challenges have come forth since hes been in my life, his spirit guide is my late uncle whom died before jake was born ans when he first started talking he would wake in a sweat in the middle of the night reliving a past life where he had been drowned, it was quite scarey at times, but over the years he has shown me what he needs,
its up to us to listen and repect our children enough to ask their view on things and i never cease to be surprised by my son coming up with the right answers, hes advised me that he needs to meditate to calm his mind and he has always been into energy healing, the answers lie within us all, and when you can learn to be quiet rnough to hear them, they are there. |

| Hi, be patient with her, You will do fine , because you are also an indigo and we tend to know what our children need, also know that you may want to cover and protect your child, but know that even though she may be scared, she needs to learn how to adjust to society and people in general, check out the herb store and see what they have for children, I know that the Bach flower remedies may be great!! Trust me there is help out there for "sensitive children" . Good Luck! Heidi |

Hi Sabrina,
Your daughter may have some Sensory Integration issues that if worked on could help to ground and calm her. An occupational therapist would make that evaluation. Also, wheat and dairy tend to be culprits in sensitive children. |
