Psychic Kids

Psychic Kids: Children of the Paranormal is television show has been aired on the A&E television network. This show was held by Chip Coffey, a sixty-three year old from Elmira, New York and calls himself an American psychic investigator. He had also appeared on the television program: Paranormal State. Edy Nathan, Chris Fleming and Kim Russo hosts the television show alongside Chip Coffey.

 

The television series started in the summer of 2008, and was renewed twice to have two more seasons after the first one. The second season aired on the 15th of December 2009 and the last season premiered on the 17th of October 2010.

 

The idea of the show is that they bring psychic kids altogether with the purpose of harnessing and sharpening their psychic abilities. It is also stated that one of the goals of the show is to make the starred children comfortable and secured with their gifts and to let them feel that they are not alone in this world full of negativity. The notion of letting them freely exercise and express themselves would make it easier and more simple to accept their fates as a psychic and learn more about what they could do or offer to other people.

 

Do you think it’s good that they created a show about psychic but with kids involved?

 

Partly, yes, partly no.

 

Partly yes, because as stated above, kids with psychic and paranormal abilities could be overwhelmed that they actually have such abilities and as children, they may or may not have an idea as to what to do with it. Often times, when children find out that they are psychic, like that they can see spirits or ghosts or they can actually foresee glimpses of the future, they wouldn’t primarily know what to do. They could just let it be and not realize that they are not practicing and honing a wonderful gift given by God. Or they could be scared because they might realize that they are a teensy weensy different as compared to the other kids on the block.

 

So, having shows like the Psychic Kids could actually bring a positive and good impact to the kids that are probably experiencing the same things and abilities as the kids on the show. It might help them think that it is okay, and it is somehow acceptable, to have such abilities that not everyone has. It will make them feel comfortable and less scared to showcase it or open up about it. Besides, there is actually nothing wrong with having psychic abilities. Some people just do not know what to do with their abilities when they first know of it.

 

And partly no, because as the critics of the show said, it is exploiting children. We all know that it is never right to expose and use children especially in this kind of field, where you know that all the people behind the cameras care about is the ratings and how they could actually accumulate more views to get lots of money. It is morally wrong to use children for money purposes but if people are willing to look beyond that, to see the bigger and brighter purpose of the show, which is to give awareness and make the children comfortable with their unusual yet marvelous abilities, then all will be well.

Besides, having to be in that show probably needs the permission of the parents, and they probably agreed to it as long as they children will be taken care of by the management of the show and it seems that they were take good care of.
