Chapman Indigo Children are the current generation being born today and most of those who are 8 years old or younger. They are different. They have very unique characteristics that set them apart from previous generations of children. The name itself indicates the Life Color they carry in their auras and is indicative of the Third Eye Chakra, which represents intuition and psychic ability. These are the children who are often rebellious to authority, nonconformist, extremely emotionally and sometimes physically sensitive or fragile, highly talented or academically gifted and often metaphysically gifted as well, usually intuitive, very often labeled ADD, either very empathic and compassionate OR very cold and callous, and are wise beyond their years. Does this sound like yourself or your child? Indigos have come into this world with difficult challenges to overcome. Their extreme levels of sensitivity are hard to understand and appreciate by parents who don't share this trait. Their giftedness is unusual in such high numbers. Their nonconformity to systems and to discipline will make it difficult to get through their childhood years and perhaps even their adult years. It is also what will help them accomplish big goals such as changing the educational system, for instance. Being an Indigo won't be easy for any of them, but it foretells a mission. The Indigo Children are the ones who have come to raise the vibration of our planet! These are the primary ones who will bring us the enlightenment to ascend. There's a very good chance your child is an Indigo if he/she was born after 1992. About 85% or higher of children born in '92 or later, 90% born in '94 or after and 95% or more born now (some even say 99%) are Indigo Children! Does this mean you aren't one if you were born prior to 1992? No! I've heard reports that they started coming in the 80s, but that means coming in larger numbers. I believe there have been Indigos born in every year, but perhaps not in high enough percentages to notice their presence and see what makes them so unique. So can you be a 24 yr old Indigo or a 50 year old one? Yes!

How to get the Most out of your Indigo Children
How To Get the Most from Your Indigo Child A Guide for Parents and Teachers by Wendy H. Chapman Updated 02/01 * RESPECT them. * Practice UNCONDITIONAL LOVE for your child. Love them and show it, no matter what. * Give CHOICES. * Give them FREEDOM to develop, balanced with SUPERVISION and SAFETY limits. * Do set LIMITS to protect them, but not arbitrary ones. * Tell REASONS and EXPLAIN WHY. * As much as is possible, LET THEM HELP to CREATE RULES and fair and appropriate consequences for breaking them. * Give them COMPLETE EXPLANATIONS to the level they will be able understand. * DON'T TALK DOWN to them. * NEVER SAY "JUST BECAUSE" or "Because I said so" and feel it is an adequate reason for an Indigo. It isn't. * Be HONEST with your children. Tell the Truth. They will know if you are not. * Avoid giving orders, instead ASK FOR their COOPERATION in accomplishing a goal (ie. of getting ready to leave on time). * DON'T try to MANIPULATE them. It won't work. * DON'T USE GUILT, fear, or hate as a controlling tool. * Be FAIR. * Be CONSISTENT. If you say NO, make sure you have a good reason and don't give in. * DON'T COMPARE your childhood to theirs (when I was a kid we had to walk 10 miles to school uphill both ways..) * Provide EMOTIONAL SUPPORT for them and their goals. * LISTEN to them. * RESPECT their PRIVACY and personal space. * TEACH your child to have RESPECT for others regardless of their abilities and model this behavior. * ADMIT when you make MISTAKES. * Make time to PLAY with your kids. * Don't do things for your children that they can do themselves. EMPOWER THEM by LETTING THEM DEVELOP AUTONOMY. * GIVE them some RESPONSIBILITIES around the home and CHOICES about which responsibilities they will have. * NOTICE GOOD BEHAVIOR and thank them for it. * USE REWARDS at least as often or more so than punishments. These help to get through frustrating times. * INVOLVE your children IN YOUR LIFE. Don't shield them from it or they will know and will resent it. * RESPECT any PSYCHIC SKILLS that they develop, even if you do not understand them. * PROVIDE appropriate TRAINING and SUPPORT for any special talents they have - physical or metaphysical. * APPRECIATE their STRENGTHS. * PROVIDE CREATIVE OUTLETS for your children. * Be OPEN to Learning FROM them. * EXAMPLE OF AN EFFECTIVE PARENTAL REQUEST of an Indigo Child: "I need you to help me get to the doctor on time. We have to go in five minutes to make the appointment, so do everything you need to before we go, like go to the bathroom if you have to. Also, since grandma is coming later we need to pick up your toys either now or as soon as we get home. You decide which." I hope you find these suggestions to be helpful. Yes, I realize these are good ideas for using with all children, but they are also particularly effective in working with Indigos. Please contact me if you have any other ideas for working with Indigo Children. If you are the parent of an Indigo Child and need further assistance, please contact me. Please see Indigo Consultation in the Services section for more information.

Parenting Indigo's
Parenting Indigos Some advice on parenting Indigo Children: Even Indigos have to be disciplined. If they're not, they will walk all over you.. Please don't misunderstand me - I don't mean punished, I mean they need to learn what is acceptable behavior and what is not and learn NOT to do the unacceptable things. Be fair, but set appropriate limits. Set reasonable consequences for not having them followed. For instance, a 5 minute time out instead of "You'll be sorry!", which is too vague, or "I'm going to thrash you," which you hopefully don't mean! FOLLOW THROUGH. If possible, allow the children to help you set the limits. For instance, have them tell you where it isn't safe to play. You can guide this discussion to what you need and have them help determine the consequences, which will probably be harsher than yours would be. They might say that they shouldn't be allowed to play with their favorite toy all the next day whereas you might have said for a half hour. In this way they are helping to set the rules and will hopefully help to follow them, too. Give reasons for why your child is not allowed to do something, like run around wild or yell at the top of his voice ("Please stop yelling, it's hurting Mommy and kitty's ears.") Indigos need to know where you're coming from even if they don't LIKE it. It's important that they hear it. Give choices "A or B - not C.." A or B. If he doesn't choose, he doesn't get either. Tell him the TRUTH as much as the age will allow. Don't ever lie to an Indigo. They KNOW. Tell him he's loved and hug him lots! If you and your spouse argue, make sure the kids know it's not their fault. Kids usually think they are the cause of arguing in the home even when it has nothing to do with them. To them, the world does revolve around them, so they have to be told that you still love them. Give them extra love and attention after this because the extra stress will be very difficult for them. Often Indigos are empathic, which will make it evenmore difficult for them to be in stressful situations. Play music to help change the mood and energy in a place.. You can also use incense or make cookies or go for a walk. Indigos are very explorative and have tons of energy. It helps if you channel this into something fun, productive, or at least not dangerous. If your children are old enough you can send them on a scavenger hunt to find nature things - a rock with a stripe on it, two leaves almost alike, 6 acorns, a bug, a wildflower, running water, 6 leaves all of different colors, etc. Children enjoy nature and will like this sort of entertainment. You can go with them, too. You'll be surprised what else you find out in the yard. Make cleaning up (their toys and games) their responsibility. You can help, but they do the most of it. You can also make it into a game by singing or playing a song and seeing if they can finish it all by the time the song ends.. and maybe get a little reward if they do. Mostly it will help for them to know WHY they need to clean up, HOW to do it, and that the making it into a game isn't to Make them do it, since it has to be done, but just to help make it fun once in awhile. by Wendy H. Chapman
