Hi Jamie,
Thank you for your words. I would like to say that best practice for all children is what is also best practice for what is termed indigo children. The current definition is a long ways from the original description, though! The only thing about the children you describe here is that they allow less wriggle room when deviating from best practice.
What I would like to add to your good list is that first parents should listen from their hearts and second parents should not fall down when children push against wisely selected boundaries.
dance in the light,
