Internationally recognized psychic and star of A&E’s hit show Psychic Kids: Children of the Paranormal, Chip Coffey shares his personal story of discovering his gift at a young age and offers valuable advice for nurturing and embracing psychic ability.
No one knows more about psychic kids than Chip Coffey, and no expert on psychic kids is better known throughout the world. These kids are widely misunderstood, misjudged, and misdiagnosed. In Growing Up Psychic, Chip Coffey offers indispensable information for anyone who interacts with these extraordinary youngsters—parents, educators, medical professionals, mental health clinicians, members of the clergy, paranormal investigators—and adults who faced the challenges of growing up psychic.
In Growing Up Psychic, drawing on his firsthand experience and the true stories of kids he has worked with and helped, Chip Coffey shows you how to:
• Determine if a child is really psychic—as opposed to simply imaginative or
seeking attention
• Identify the different kinds of psychic abilities kids (and adults) might have
• Gain control over when and how psychic information is received
• Safely connect with others in the psychic community
• Deal with skeptics and disbelievers
“Read Chip Coffey’s book to learn about an astonishing, inspiring, unexplained propensity of the human mind.”
—from the foreword written by Dr. Raymond Moody, author of Life After Life

      A part of the Psychic Kids TV series on A&E, this book, by the show's host and "psychic investigator" Coffey, attempts to help children deal with their psychic abilities. Often these children, explains Coffey, some of them very young, are overwhelmed and frightened by their abilities, which may include seeing ghosts or being able to predict the future. Coffey's background includes training as a counselor, so whether or not one is a believer in psychic abilities, he offers down-to-earth advice on subjects including how to help children sleep in their own beds when they are afraid of monsters or how to spot the warning signs of a potentially suicidal adolescent. Psychic children, like all children who don't adhere to society's norms, may need special treatment by their school, their family, and their peers. In addition, Coffey offers insight into his own experiences as a psychic, including encounters with the paranormal. The book includes a glossary of terms, prayers of protection, and Coffey's favorite encounters with the paranormal. VERDICT This surprisingly well-written and grounded volume should appeal to open-minded parents who will find the advice helpful for their children, psychic or not.--Susan Flaherty, Portland P.L., ME
