Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - The Weirdest Thing I've Ever Seen-Indigo Children-WTF?
Posted: 1/1/2006 6:42:35 PM EDT
What is this world coming to? I have never heard of such BS. Freakin' "Indigo Children", what a load of crap! "My child is a self-centered, egotistical, undisciplined punk, let's call him an Indigo Child and everything will be o.k." Pleeeeeaaaaaaasssseee give me a freaking break!

I have seen that too!  Apparently there is some cult like group that considers these children to be special "visitors" from another plane or something.  I'll see if I can dig up the link.

Is Your Child an Indigo?

To find out, ask yourself these questions:

  1. Did your child come into the world acting like royalty?

  2. Does your child have a feeling of deserving to be here?

  3. Does your child have an obvious sense of self?

  4. Does your child have difficulty with discipline and authority?

  5. Does your child refuse to do certain things they are told to do?

  6. Is waiting in lines torture for your child?

  7. Is your child frustrated by ritual-oriented systems that require little creativity?

  8. Does your child see better ways of doing thing at home and at school?

  9. Is your child a nonconformist?

 10. Does your child refuse to respond to guilt trips?

 11. Does your child get bored rather easily with assigned tasks?

 12. Does your child display symptoms of Attention Deficit Disorder?

 13. Is your child particularly creative?

 14. Does your child display intuition?

 15. Does your child have strong empathy for others?

 16. Did your child develop abstract thinking very early?

 17. Is your child very intelligent?

 18. Is your child very talented (may be identified as gifted)?

 19. Does your child seem be a daydreamer?

 20. Does your child have very old, deep, wise looking eyes?

 21. Does your child have spiritual intelligence?

If you have more than 10 yes answers, he or she probably is an Indigo. If more than 15, almost definitely.


This "test" covers every child that isn't in a complete vegetative state.

Sounds like a load of hogwash to me........

If my child comes into the world acting "like royalty" and expecting to be treated so, they are going to get a rude awakening when they find themselves over my knee getting their spoiled ass whipped!

Just what the world needs. Another way to reinforce the self-centered attitudes of teenagers.

Playing "follow the money" would be interesting on the whole indigo kid scam.

I'd answer yes to all 21 questions.    I guess I'm an indigo...


Personally,  I think that there IS somethign going on but it's an environmental quality issue of some
sort which is, quite frankly,  screwing up our kids.   Maybe it's just population pressures?

Whatever,  something seems to be going on.

Yeah,  I have ADD,  as they call it now.   I manage.  It actually gives me certain advantages even
as it causes problems in other areas of my life.     It sort of balances out.

Yes, the syptoms of ADD/ADHD are associated with successful entrepreneur's and achiever's. I have also read conspiracy theories of it being attributed to childhood vaccinations.

HOLY CRAP. That explains EVERYTHING.

Hey everybody "I'm an INDIGO!"

Or maybe I'm just a self centered asshole, I can't be positive...

Gotta love this shit, rather than force parents to realize they failed and their kids are self centered assholes they explain their kids are from fucking Mars, or ADD or HDD or some other crap.

No kid, you're not an Indigo....you are a fucking jackass retard and your parents are pathetic fuck ups who can't face reality. Which probably explains why you are a jackass retard.

My wife's grandmother believes our 8yo to be one of these kids.  For the life of me, I do not know how this woman goes through life with some of the thoughts that control her brain.  It is darn creepy, to the point where I ask my wife to stay in a motel when they go to visit them.

Crystals, angels & cherubs everywhere, holistic medicine, you name it she is 100% into it.

That just tells you where these folks come from and where they get their ideas.  Completely nutty to me.

I give it 4 posts till the first reply with, "I had problems in school and when I got put on Adderal it changed my life."  

There's nothing wrong with 99 % of ADD "victims" that discipline and a modicum of self-control won't fix but drugs will.

You will not sell much stuff labeled "Rotten Bastard". edit, especially regarding childrens!

If you answered "yes" to ten of these, your child might be a rotten bastard. 15 and almost certainly!

Aura...right. I had a Tarot card reading homo in New Orleans tell me he could take me to the back, and if I stood in a circle on the floor naked he could "read" my aura

I haev seen my kids with thier little butts red, but not indigo.
my dad whooped the indigo out of me.
This sounds like another lame excuse to deny the fact that there are kids out there who are spoiled brats whose parents are to lazy to do anything about it, and are to scared they will hurt little Johnies feelings.

It's OK, my kids will hire Indigo kids to haul the trash out one day, I just hope thier precious little indigo egos are able to cope with the fact that they are compelely unfit to hold a job that requires any personal responsibility at all.

Fucked up parents, crappy diets, lack of excercise, perhaps drug abuse in their homes. Those are the environmental issues. Still all boils down to fucked up parents. We are reaping what we sow.

Actually the clinical term is "wild ass kid."

I was a WAK, you were a WAK and every normal, healthy male under the age of 13 was a WAK.

If you weren't a WAK there was definitely something wrong with you.

Thank god I grew up when parents understood parenting was a job and you couldn't just dope up your WAK so that you can watch your soap operas uninterupted.

One day I will have a WAK and I understand it will be my job and responsibility to keep and eye on him and keep him out of trouble. In other words I will be a parent.

And if any school teacher isn't up to their job and suggests doping my kid into a more managable and compliant automatron I will resurrect the WAK in me and make them fear my very presence and shudder at the thought of running afoul of me or my family.

Otherwise, I'm completely normel.
