Disorder), Autism, and OCD (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder). This is due to the fact that, in her opinion, these indigo children learn better with their hands and through movements.
Critics point out that there is no substantial proof that indigo children exist. The characteristics of these youngsters that are described by Tappe could be used to describe almost anyone, and these critics fear that by claiming that a child is an indigo child may prevent him from getting the help that he may need.
Other critics point out that these children’s knowledge about things beyond their years could be the simple result of the television programs that they are watching. Many children’s shows today are much more complex and advanced than they were when most of us were growing up. The vocabulary and the content with which they deal with are somewhat “New Age,” entwining the plot with magic and a variety of powers and abilities. These youngsters may be copying much of what they learn from these programs.
As far as these children being more advanced and intelligent than youngsters of the past, this can easily be explained as well. Since the 1970s, most children attended preschool prior to entering kindergarten. These children are learning the basics at the age of three or four that we did not learn until we entered regular school.
The belief in indigo children is like any other belief system. While many people do not agree with the concept, others swear by it. It all comes down personal choice and opinion.
