Boobies!

/ Had to do it.
// The indigo shiat is pure (shiat that is).

what a load of bovine scatology

my kid is a spoiled self-centered brat.

he's only 4 months old tho so I cut him a little slack.

Pretty damn far from fine if you ask me!

Suddenly, after reading that article, I want to drink. A lot.

What a load of horseshiat.

Incarnum does that to you.

/obscure?

Your child is bat-shiat crazy.

No, YOUR kid is a self-centered brat, and you are a terrible parent.

believed to be a new generation of high-energy, sometimes difficult youngsters who have psychic abilities

This doesn't end good.

Kooky shiat.

kids, all kids, think they are at the center of the universe.

this indigo idea is 100% pure bullshytt. bunch of lazy asshole parents who don't want to take responsibility for disciplining their children, who don't want to use science, and who are, in my opinion, committing child abuse.

I read a study that said if you ask 10 children of preschool age: "tell me about when you were big" 1 will give you a long story with details they most likley wouldnt have knowledge of.

Mankind has not evolved an inch from the slime that spawned him

/very good, sir.

Wow. I mean, magic's fun to read about, etc (yay fantasy books!) and the same go for psychic powers... but surely people aren't silly enough to believe this kind of stuff?

Closer they are to fine

Indigo Prophesy rocked...

Just a way for boomers to pass on the values of their generation to us. biatches.

The esp society will meet tonight . . . You'll know where, and when.

I just wish I could get a mailing list of believers in this shiat, I could get rich selling them mystic crystals and homeopathic nonsense.

At least they aren't Indigo Girls.

uh what?

Your "indigo child" wants Ritalin.

/Just sayin'

Shoot I tell you what man... them kids that have them psychic powers is kinda freaking me out a little.

I have son that can tell me things that happened before he was born. It sounds odd but I truly believe he has been here before and knows a great deal.

Mainstream doctors, scientists, psychologists and educators shake their heads at the very idea of Indigo children, who are described as "old souls" returning to earth to usher in an era of environmental renewal and political rebirth born of peace and compassion.

This sounds like a churchgoing liberal's version of the Rapture. The angels are going to come down to Earth and lead us into a heaven of energy independence based on renewable and nonpolltuing sources, veganism, social justice and they will smite the Republicans with great fury. Verily, brothers, the Indigo Children are the first sign of His/Her/Transgendered's coming! Repent!

Carroll and Tober define Indigos as "restless, fearless" individuals who "believe in themselves ... have difficulty with absolute authority," and "often see better ways of doing things, at home and in school."

And they're composed of carbon, warm-blooded and possess vertebrae. Hence, Indigo Children represent approximately 100% of the human race.

big bad dad, give us an example

There's no doubt that my highly intelligent son is very different from most people, either kids his age or adults, and we've always referred to him as an "old soul." He's not done well in conventional public school but a rigorous school district-supported home education program has taken care of the academic problems he was having. The whole "coming to save the world" thing is pure crap.

Feed them a couple of Snickers bars and lots of caffeine loaded pop.
The way they bounce around, its like watching a human pinball machine.

You don't want a 'smart' kid. No you don't. Expensive is just the beginning....

Big_Bad_Dad: I have son that can tell me things that happened before he was born. It sounds odd but I truly believe he has been here before and knows a great deal.

use your brain.

Like parents need another reason to shrink from their responsibilities.

ADHD is pure crap too IMHO, just a way for the pharma companies to make more money.

I can hear all these parents now: "My child isn't a crazy brat, he's SPECIAL!"

I_C_Weener: So, does this mean the Indigo Girls aren't lesbians?


You know, I used to buy their tapes and stuff, and then someone pointed out that they were big fat queers? Its all good until someone notices that you collect their music, and hits on you.

Bleh.

I still like them though - just not in that way...

no, see, they're scientologists, returning from a previous life, and have obviously been through the between-lives incident without proper stripping of memories ..

I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain
There's more than one answer to these questions
pointing me in crooked line
The less I seek my source for some definitive
The closer I am to fine.

Kids making stuff up?

He's not crazy. He's special. Everybody's special. If he doesn't fit in at school, it's just because he's more special than everybody else. If he killed the dog, it's just because he's so extremely intelligent and curious to see what's inside. And he stabbed the teacher with a pencil because he has such a huge creative force running through him that he couldn't contain himself. Everybody else is jealous because he's so special. That's why the Man wants to keep him down with the big, bad Ritalin.

/Why do so many parents seem to think like this?

What a steamin' load that was!

Also, if you believe in the "old soul" thing, you can't be Christian, cuz as far as I know only Jesus returned from the dead. reincarnation etc is NOT approved by any Christian church I am aware of.

you know, when i started acting special, my parents interpreted that as getting too big for my britches, so they applied the correct force to my posterior and solved the problem. no medicine, just discipline and love

simusid

what a load of bovine scatology

So just what have cows learned through their study of fecal excrement?

KAAAAAAAAAAAAANEEEEEEEEEEDAAAAAAAAA!
