“Evolution is speeding up, not time. Consciousness is evolving, becoming aware of itself as creation's mentor. Children are evolution's front edge. They push at boundaries... challenge the status quo...irritate convention. That is their job...to set free all that sullies the human heart and blinds the mind to the relationship between the Creator and the Created." ~ P.M.H. Atwater~

"ONLY LOVE PREVAILS" ...."I've loved you for a thousand years; I'll love you for a thousand more....."
Don't it just look so pretty
This disappearing world
We're threading hope like fire
Down through the desperate blood
Night falling on the city
Quite something to behold
Don't it just look so pretty
This disappearing world
This disappearing world
I'll be by your side
Hit 'em 'tween the eyes
Through the smoke and rising water
Cross the great divide
Baby till it all feels right
This disappearing world
This disappearing world

"A child can teach an adult three things: to be happy for no reason, to always be busy with something, and to know how to demand with all his might that which he desires." ~ Paulo Coelho
“It is not the critic who counts,not the man who who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”Theodore Roosevelt
TECHNOLOGY..........
In “Conversations with God”, by Neale Donald Walsch, there is a warning I think of. I refer to it as the Atlantis passage, and I've quoted it a few times before." As I have said, this isn't the first time your civilization has been at this brink,"
God tells Walsch. "I want to repeat this, because it is vital that you hear this. Once before on your planet, the technology you developed was far greater than your ability to use it responsibly. You are approaching the same point in human history again. It is vitally important that you understand this. Your present technology is threatening to outstrip your ability to use it wisely. Your society is on the verge of becoming a product of your technology rather than your technology being a product of your society. When a society becomes a product of its own technology, it destroys itself."

The Essence of Today's Children + Dr.Doreen Virtue
The term Indigo is often rebelled against...as a label. I have come to agree, especially at the behest of my daughter. But I suppose it is like any other "jargon" in that we can connect with the reality of these children with that label. At the same time, most all children...are born this way. They are truth seeker...with high intuition coupled with an innate ability to detect dishonesty. There are many other qualities which, frankly, we see in almost every child we meet if we have the interest and devotion to be curious.
One question I always used to ask of any child in sessions was, "What is it that you have come to teach me today?" This question startled the child initially...that any adult would ask them this question. I would then explain that, if they wished, they could think about it until the next session. Inevitably, when the child became aware that this was indeed an authentic question, their answers seemed worth waiting for, even if it took a while. Almost always, I felt gratitude and astonishment at their answers. Many who might have been described as "concrete thinkers" by schoolteachers who, themselves, were concrete and linear, clearly were capable of deeper and more reflective abstract thinking. It is the understanding of their nature, understanding of the evolutionary phase, and affirming of the child's essence which creates the environment for these children to grow maximally.
In my experience, I don't see a lot of difference between the parenting skills of an "Indigo", and the parents of a (allegedly) "regular" kid. However, it is understanding the child and its advanced abilities new to this generation, that is key. Inevitably, in working with a child, it becomes quite apparent that at least one parent is the same, whether or not they are ready to embrace and value that.
