The term ‘indigo children’ comes from a New Age concept, children who are born with an indigo aura, different from most people.
Former Psychotherapist Doreen Virtue believes that the concept of indigo children is credible, and that they are here to change the world for the better, but instead they are being repressed with drugs such as Ritalin.
While Stephen Hinshaw, professor and the chairman of psychology at the University of California, Berkeley does not agree with the idea of indigo children, he does agree that children are being ‘over-medicalised’ and simple behavior problems that a child might grow out of are being labelled as ADD or ADHD, giving the child a stigma for life.
Common traits of indigo children
These traits seem familiar with some of those we ascribe to ADHD children, could there be an overlap?
