A list of books for parents of spiritually aware children:
I wish there were only one book, comprehensive and thorough, that I could recommend here, but there isn’t. Instead, there are many books to read and from which to select what works for you and your family.
What perspective or tools meet your heart? About self-referencing
As all children are spiritually aware or at least walk with the potential, it would be impossible for only one book to provide the needed guidance for everyone. All children are spiritually aware and are also so unique and different from one another.
With the spirit of self-referencing that I hope emerges from everything I write, read each of these books knowing that they can inspire you, help you understand, and provide tools, but! But! You also must self-reference, contemplate, and avoid labeling or using these tools until you sit with them and feel within that this is indeed the explanation, tool, or perspective you wish to take with your spiritually aware child or family on your shared journey of growth.
Each of our children chose specific parents for this lifetime. The parent they chose is not the book’s author, healer, or teacher. It is you—whether you birthed her/him/them physically or from your heart. Self-reference…
I learned to respect and appreciate each child’s choices in my journey as a mother, which went through a car crash, NDE, and then away and unable to be the mother I promised my daughters I would be for months.

A list of books for parents of spiritually aware children
