I read my wife the list of what makIndigo. She says it sounds like an excuse for poorly behaved children and bad parenting.

edit for spelling

Oh, isn't this fun. Of course I care. Care about all of you and your labels. We can have a ton of fun with this, to be sure. For complete disclosure, I am an indigo and not. Whoa, both at the same time. I guess it depends on which me we are talking too and which you is asking the questions. At the end of the day you are WAY more "indigo" than me for sure, cause you demand the answer. Tell you what, friend, let us see who is more Christian, Muslim, Iraqi, Canadian, Spiritual and then attack. Sounds like a great idea to me. I actually think that this makes sense. Would love to see the enemy, because ultimately I know that you are not. You never were and never will be.

Back on topic... So this little label of "Indigo". What shall we do with it? What shall we think? Where do we draw the line with all the little "crazy" differences between a whole group of people that are basically the same?

Are we dealing with you as a racist? It seems to me that black, white, yellow, purple, native, female, male, gay, straight, transgender, indigo, star, etc... we should just exist. Now, apply the labels, where would we stop? When are we people?

Jumps off soap box into a more comfortable place...

Thanks for the thread, needed that!

that's exactly what it is. and excuse for parents to make themselves feel better about their poorly behaved children. "Oh, he's special, he's an INDIGO CHILD that's just how they act."

I might have grown up to be an indigo child as well, but my fathers belt put a stop to that tho.

hey, what can we call the people who aren't Indigos.maybe we can be opaques\:

1: exhibiting opacity : blocking the passage of radiant energy and especially light2 a: hard to understand or explain

It really is just another label that no one needs. Another stereotype to put yourself and others into which limits how you perceive yourself and others. I don't care if anyone is indigo, violet, red or rainbow colored (jk) just stop the stereotyping. No one really knows who anyone really is anyways, we only know what we perceive so why are we always judging others constantly? Nobody is smarter or stupider or better or worse than anyone else, it is all relative to your experience and perception.

EXACTLY!!!! the stereotyping thing.....arggggg!

We are ALL equal, just because I am small doen't make me less than someone tall...

Some people are attracted to small people, others to tall... I am not going to go around trying to put down the "talls" just because I am small, lol....iof someone comes around that lkes small people, cool if not cool, I am not going to hold it against the tall people....

and the tall guy thinking he is better than me??? the last thing I am gonna do is awknowlege him or that he thinks he is better than me..... I am gonna skip right past to the people who have common interests and forget the tall guy who thinks I am lesss than him.......I don't wanna miss out on a great game of cranium just because there is a tall person playing....he isn't the same as the one guy who put me down! He might actually like a shorty like me....lol


Hpe that made sense..

Maybe we should hang out, melissamouse.

Indigo kids etc.

Just another way to sell books that P.T. Barnum would snicker at.

Worthless tribble.

I went through that too. Hated it to be sure but I don't think you can beat this out of anyone. Indigo may be an exaggeration, to be sure. But. we are all special and able to contribute to life. Indigo, or otherwise, here we are to make it better for everyone, imo.

Call your mom. Hug your kids. Pet your animal(s). Talk to your plants. Rub your wife / husbands back.

One simple gesture means the world in context.

Well, life's all about trying different things and experiencing things to build character right?

Indigo smindigo. It's the taupe and mauve children that scare me.

First off, before I make any statement I need to say this:
the Indigo Children Theory is just that...a theory.
It's an idea.
Just like any belief that anyone has. And we all have them...too many to begin to count.
I'm not here to defend said theory because I don't take with it myself. It has interesting ideas and is entirely optimistic...but it's a tad on the saccharine side for me.
Personally, however, it's been able to add a few more pieces of the puzzle of the big picture for me to tinker around with.

But, please, people, take the time to become informed on something before you blatantly bash it.
It was a breath of fresh air for me, as they say. Its positivist tones are something sorely lacking anymore.

But to attempt to comment on some things that has been said thus far:
Overly sweet, yes, but not so grandiose once you put it in relative, everyday terms. Think of it like this: we all know charismatic people and there have been many that we adore and even worship and they've all made change to the given social structure some how (JFK, MLK Jr., Gandhi, Buddha, Jesus, etc. etc.). This theory says we are all becoming this.
It's not narcissistic either. If, once again, you had read further into the theory, it states that the Indigos, for better or worse, have come as the trail blazers for the rest - the Crystal children afterward, and everyone else that was already here. It says, once again, that we are all becoming this, that are all heading in the same direction.
These are labels with a subjective meaning, not to be taken literally.

Come on, people...it is "new" ideas that are going to save this world.
You all see what the status quo is doing for us so far.
If nothing else, at least somebody is trying. It may be deluded and misguided...but at least it is something.

Take care, all.

Great thread, when the indigos come and do something productive, they are worthy of praise, otherwise, they are just like everyone else. Do we get all excited when a scientist watches football? Hell no! We get excited when a scientist finds a cure for a disease plaguing the world.

wow

a whole thread dedicated to jealousy

what relevance does this thread have at all

Looks like someone's an Indigo!
