17. obviously the notion inspires prejudice in some people (above)
I said in the thread, I don't know that much about the Indigo children in detail.

This can be viewed as the same prejudice that adults have had for remarkable children -- or children's creative spirit in general (as in "be seen and not heard") -- that Alice Miller writes about.

This child was like nothing I've ever seen. He was observing the adults reaction to him with the same dispassionate awareness that got their attention in the first place. No mugging. No cliches.

Poor dad has a gem in his hands.
