Perhaps you would prefer a child to carry that label through school than to have the parent approach it from a more spiritual aspect and use the category of a 'rainbow/crystal/indigo/starseed/ascender/blue ray/ and to use that as a guidance tool. Because basically that is what it is ; it is a tool, just as ADHD is a tool to help teachers/staff/doctors/family know how to care for a child

Hmm... because the ADHD label isn't nice, we just replace it with indigo/star/fairy/lightworker/rainbow etc. ? These labels will create all kinds of expectations in the child.
That's why you get these kids thinking they are here to bring some 'higher' message, of course inspired by the New Age beliefs of their parents.
It's brainwashing!
Not liking one label and replacing it with another one is not my cup of tea.
