"The authors say that "the Indigo Child is a boy or girl who displays a new and unusual set of psychological attributes, revealing a pattern of behavior generally undocumented before." For example, they act like royalty, have difficulty with absolute authority unless given choices or explanations, are easily frustrated (e.g. when waiting in line), are not shy, have difficulty with guilt-based discipline, are non-conformist, may seem antisocial and prefer to be with their own kind, and may have social difficulties in school.

These attributes reflect our daughter. After taking her to many many, many specialists, all diagnosing her as ADD, ADHD, whatever. Subscribing many varying doses of ridalin, which did no good. Went through absolute hell with her during her teenage years ... sh ran away from home at age 15, involved in heavy drug use, living on the streets. Nothing magical that's for sure. She is now 21 years old, and is diagnosed as being bi-polar.
