Subject: RE: BS: Indigo Children - on CNN last night
Well I'm "goddess size" too, and I didn't find what Dave's Wife said offensive at all, either. I'm thinking along the same lines as Sinsull.

I'm not normally cynical - generally very open to all sorts of possibilities - but my first reaction to this idea of Indigo Children is that it is a big rip-off and not worth a load of foetid dingoes' kidneys.

You can understand that some vulnerable parents would be eager to seize on this idea as an explanation of their childrens' behaviour, but by going along with it and treating their children as superior, they are going to make things worse for them in the end. At the very least they are likely to become even more insufferable, and at the worst, it may possibly actually do them harm by leaving treatable or manageable conditions untreated. It's really sad.
