are you or someone you know an indigo child/adult, or a crystal child/adult?

Question

i find that every tom **** and harry think they are, or that their precious child is. i also wonder why they think this is such a great thing. have you read the definitions of these? there are very few desirable traits listed amung them:

They come into the world with a feeling of royalty (and often act like it).
They have a feeling of "deserving to be here," and are surprised when others do not share that.
Self-worth is not a big issue; they often tell the parents "who they are."
They have difficulty with absolute authority (authority without explanation or choice).
They simply will not do certain things; for example, waiting in line is difficult for them.
They get frustrated with systems that are ritually oriented and do not require creative thought.
They often see better ways of doing things, both at home and in school, which makes them seem like "system busters" (non-conforming to any system).

They seem antisocial unless they are with their own kind. If there are no others of like consciousness around them, they often turn inward, feeling like no other human understands them. School is often extremely difficult for them socially.
They will not respond to "guilt" discipline ("Wait till your father gets home and finds out what you did").
They are not shy in letting it be known what they need.

Answer 1

its obvious that you dont know a damn thing about what an indigo is:

Are intelligent (though did not necessarily have top grades).

Are very creative and enjoy making things.

Always need to know WHY (especially why they are being asked to do something).

Had disgust and perhaps loathing for the inanity of much of the required work in school, the repetition.

Were rebellious in school, refusing to do homework, rejecting authority of teachers OR seriously wanted to rebel, but didn't DARE, usually due to parental pressure.

May have experienced early existential depression and feelings of helplessness. These may have ranged from sadness to utter despair. Suicidal feelings while still in high school or younger are not uncommon in the Indigo Adult.

Have difficulty in service-oriented jobs - resistance to authority and caste system of employment.

Prefer cooperative efforts or leadership position or solo if expertise is valued.

Have deep empathy for others, yet an intolerance of stupidity.
Extremely emotionally sensitive including crying at the drop of a hat (no shielding) - to no expression of emotion (full shielding).

May have trouble with RAGE.

Have trouble with most systems (either emotionally, mentally, or physically)- political, educational, medical, law.

Alienation from politics - feeling your voice won't count and that the outcome really doesn't matter anyway.

Frustration with or rejection of the traditional American dream - 9-5 career, marriage, 2.5 children, house with white picket fence, etc.

Anger at rights being taken away, fear and/or fury at "Big Brother watching you."

They feel a need like a burning desire to do something to change and improve the world. May be stymied what to do.
Have psychic or spiritual interest fairly young - in or before teen years.

Had few if any Indigo role models.

Have strong intuition.

Random behavior pattern or mind style - (symptoms of Attention Deficit Disorder), may have trouble focusing on a task unless of OWN choosing, may jump around in conversations.

Have had psychic experiences, such as premonitions, seeing angels or ghosts, hearing voices.

Sexually expressive and inventive OR may reject sexuality in boredom. May explore alternate types of sexuality.

Seek meaning to their life and understanding about the world May seek this through religion, spiritual groups and books, self-help groups or books, or individually.

If they find balance they may become very strong, healthy, happy lightworkers.

Answer 2

The phenomenon of "Indigo children" isn't much more than a case of socially maladjusted people make up a term for themselves or their children.

Your kids don't "fit in"? Well, there can't possibly be a negative reason for this. It can't be because your kid is the odd one. It must be that the rest of the kids are the odd ones. *Your* kid is special. He's an indigo child.

Answer 3

My brother and I were told we were "indigo," and that's why our mom didn't really get us, but I like "quirky children of stressed out widowed mother" better.

I've never heard of "crystal."

Answer 4

This fad is typical of people who need to view themselves as special and it encourages narcissistic behavior...and I say that as someone who believes that psychic ability is real...but having psychic ability does not make a person the center of the Universe nor does it make them special...

Answer 5

Was there a question besides asking if we read what you wrote? I didn't read it to answer your "question?" Too long and I didn't know what you were trying to say? Indigo and crystal....are both born of royalty and are entitled to think so. I'm an indigo crystal child.

Answer 6

I thought this was scientifically debunked?
It's totally a nature vs nurture thing. Are these children acting like this because they were raised a certain way being "indigo children" or were they born this way?

Answer 7

yeah, they sound like spoiled little brats! i've read that ADD / ADHD is attributed to this "phenomena"...
the only traits i have personally is being introverted & "frustrated with systems that are ritually oriented and do not require creative thought"... so I'm definitely NOT one... and i hope my kid doesn't end up having those traits!!

Answer 8

"Indigo children"?!?

What, are they the kids of the Indigo Girls?

I thought those two were lesbians....

Answer 9

I am sensing a naughty aura around you!!

Answer 10

no
