Indigo Children
Here to help the human race transform? |
Indigo children are bright,
intuitive, strong- willed, sometimes self- destructive, often labelled - as
having ADD or ADHD - and they may exhibit behavioural problems at home and in
school.
In this text, written not only for parents and teachers, but also for indigo
children who are now young adults, Doreen Virtue explores the psyche of these
special children, aiming to positively affect the ways in which parents
interact with their children |

The Challenge of ...
Spirited Kids
|
|
| |
These are the ones who have guts and gumption and will do well in life - as
long as they get through childhood and adolescence in one piece - which,
considering their escapades and daring, may often be in doubt....

No,
that's not meant to send you on a guilt trip!!
Through their normal limit testing, kids quickly discover and can exploit our
blind spots without really understanding why we tend to react in predictable
ways.
If your child is excessively bossy, controlling, always trying to make others
compromise (for no apparent reason), expending a disproportionate amount of
energy over seemingly trivial issues or objectives, we may have unwittingly
encouraged it! A solution is at hand which will help us first look at ourselves
and find out what is preventing us from being effective. |
|
| |
 |
|
| |
This book focuses on teaching parents to become 'manipulation
proof' by recognising those blind spots. These 'hidden agendas' include things
such as parental guilt, fear, lack of confidence, inconvenience, conflict
between parents etc.
Ignore the unfortunate title! It offers a powerful insight into healthy family
dynamics. |
