173. Do you believe in the existence of either Indigo or Crystal Children / Adults?
Indigo Children is a term used to refer to a set of children having certain special psychological and spiritual attributes.  The indigo child concept was first publicized by the book The Indigo Children, written by Lee Carroll and Jan Tober.  The adjective "indigo" is used because it is claimed these children appear to have an indigo-hued aura. 

Characteristics Of Indigo Children:

- They come into the world with a feeling of royalty (and often act like it)


- They have a feeling of "deserving to be here", and are surprised when others don't share that.
- Self-worth is not a big issue. They often tell the parents "who they are."
- They have difficulty with absolute authority (authority without explanation or choice).
- They simply will not do certain things; for example, waiting in line is difficult for them.
- They get frustrated with systems that are ritually oriented and don't require creative thought.
- They often see better ways of doing things, both at home and in school, which makes them seem like "system busters" (nonconforming to any system).
- They seem antisocial unless they are with their own kind. If there are no others of like consciousness around them, they often turn inward, feeling like no other human understands them. School is often extremely difficult for them socially.
- They will not respond to "guilt" discipline ("Wait till your father gets home and finds out what you did").
- They are not shy in letting you know what they need.

Crystal Children is a term similar to that of indigo children but these children are purported to be extremely powerful psychics whose main purpose is to take humanity to the next level of our evolution, reveal to us our inner power and divinity.  They often function in groups rather than as individuals and share a unity consciousness as well as being awakened from birth.  Crystal children are claimed to have an opalescent aura of multi-color pastel hues.
