It makes a difference in which terms you want to define the things you see. �If you want to call the "increased empathy and creativity, as well as conceptual thinking as apposed to linear thinking" by the term "Indigo children" or if you want to call it "overexcitibilities" determines who you want to talk to. �Seems like several groups have noticed exceptionality and have tried to define and communicate what they saw. �Actually a recent goal i've seen posted here is to create a way of discussing gifted issues and also create some comprehensive easy to grasp terms to discuss them with. �Seems to me like you have an in- depth kid, and, well, we're an in-depth bunch that frequents this forum. �If you're looking for something multifaceted and you're flexible I think you'll find it here.
