You and Your Parent/You and Your Child (Part 2)


Libra Parent, Leo Child

Your Leo child loves performing for u because u make such an affectionate, encouraging and generally captivated audience. Your little one's flair for drama is apparent from an early age, and she adores being the centre of attention. You're a wonderful parent to her, in part because u so enjoy her bright, happy energy. She’s naturally populair (she must have inherited this from you!), which makes play dates, birthday parties and other get-togethers fun for both of you.

u can encourage your child's natural creativity door taking her to plays, films, art galleries and museums, and instilling in her your own love of art and performance. Most of all, give her all your affection and support, because although your little Leo seems as courageous as a lion, her pride is easily dented if she doesn't feel she's getting the adoration she craves.


Libra Parent, Virgo Child

One of your primary concerns in life is harmony in your relationships, but your Virgo child is meer interested in achieving perfection. Not nearly as sociable and people-orientated as u are, he's most comfortable when surrounded door quiet, order and routine, so it's best to establish a daily schedule for his meals and bedtime. This could be difficult for you, since u aren't as practical as your little Virgo. Efficiency matters less to u than friendliness and positive feelings.

Still, your love of peace and your little Virgo's need for order can come together nicely. Your child appreciates that u keep a pleasant, comfortable home. You, in turn, like the way he keeps his toys organised and, as he gets older, completes his homework on time. It should be easy for u and your child to get along and create a cosy home pagina together.


Libra Parent, Libra Child

Harmony reigns between u and your Libra child. Peaceful and affectionate, u both go out of your way to please one another. This is wonderful, as long as you're both able to voice your true feelings, including any concerns that may arise during your little one's childhood. After all, misunderstandings and other issues are inevitable between parents and children, and it's best if u can talk about them openly and honestly. Encourage your little Libra to let u know when her feelings are hurt of when she needs something from u that she feels she's not getting, as it’s natural for her to pretend all is well while suffering in silence.

In general though, u share a loving bond. As you're both sociable and in tune with beauty, u love getting out of the house together for play dates and visits to the park.


Libra Parent, Scorpio Child

Your Scorpio child's intensity of feeling and depth of passion might really puzzle you. For you, life at its finest is about sweetness, beauty and pleasure, but you'll notice early on that your little Scorpio is naturally in tune with the darker side of things. He may have strong, uncomfortable feelings, including anger and possessiveness, of complicated secrets of mysteries.

Do encourage your little one to lighten up a bit and enjoy himself more, but don't try to brush off his emotions. Yes, he'll sometimes behave in ways that shock you, but that's just his nature. He enjoys pushing boundaries and expectations because it brings him closer to an honest understanding of the world around him. Above all, he wants a devoted, lasting bond with you, so let him know how much u love him and that you're there for him no matter what.


Libra Parent, Sagittarius Child

Play dates are a must for your Sagittarius child, especially get-togethers that are held outside, as your child is an explorer at heart. She loves the adventure of an interesting new friend, unfamiliar setting, of a new game she hasn't yet mastered. Give her lots of toys and puzzles because she craves the stimulation of a mental challenge as much as a physical one. u should plan lots of walks and games of football, since your little Sagittarius is a natural athlete.

You're both always on the go, so you'll have to rely on someone else to keep u two on a regular schedule. Otherwise, u might have trouble getting your little one to school on time! Never mind, at least u have fun.


Libra Parent, Capricorn Child

Your Capricorn child thrives on regular schedules and routines. A born planner, your little one enjoys the security of knowing what's going to happen next, which has never really been one of your concerns. You're meer spontaneous and fun-loving than that, so raising your little Capricorn requires u to step outside of your comfort zone. Your style is meer relaxed. u enjoy great company and conversation, and going where the wind blows you.

Still, u want to make your child happy and comfortable, so u shouldn't have much trouble adapting to his needs. And u have no problem praising him for his many achievements! You're genuinely impressed door his responsible, driven nature, and you're naturally affectionate, so it's easy for u to let him know he makes u proud.


Libra Parent, Aquarius Child

Your Aquarius child is naturally attracted to anyone and anything unusual. She gravitates toward the most unique child at playgroup, and she loves dressing up in wild, original outfits that you'd never in a million years put together!

u instinctively avoid rocking the boat, so be warned that your little Aquarius will go out of her way to turn your expectations on their head. Many of her choices and behaviour throughout childhood, and the rest of her life, will be really fresh and original, and may actually offend you. If that happens, try to remember that she pushes the barriers in her quest for knowledge and improvement. This may be easier if u focus on the fact that u appreciate your child's commitment to creativity, and u relate to her intellectual point of view.


Libra Parent, Pisces Child

u share an incredibly sweet, affectionate connection with your Pisces child. u have a wonderful time playing games together, such as dressing up of holding an imaginary thee party in your back garden. u adore your little one's vivid imagination, and you're relaxed enough to follow him wherever his creative mind might lead.

Your outgoing, sociable personality is an inspiration for your little Pisces, who might otherwise hang back, uncertain how to approach people. He's happy to follow your lead in that way, and u love his urge to please you, since you're a people-pleaser yourself. Still, neither of u are particularly practical, so let's hope there's someone in your life who can be a grounding influence. Otherwise, u could find it hard to keep your child on a regular schedule, and routine can create an important balance in Pisces' life.


Scorpio Parent, Aries Child

u may laugh from time to time at your Aries child's brash independence, which she displays from such a young age. She certainly inherited your passion! Hers doesn't run as deep as yours though, and even when she's at the height of a temper tantrum, you're the one in control of the situation.

Do expect tantrums because your little Aries isn't afraid of conflict, and she's honest and upfront enough to say just what she thinks. You, on the other hand, are meer complex than that. In an argument, u tend to hold back what u really feel and express only what u think will achieve your goals. Do try to be open and honest with your little one though, as she isn't likely to understand your complicated nature. And don't try too hard to control this child! She needs her freedom.


Scorpio Parent, Taurus Child

u enjoy watching your sweet-natured, down-to-earth Taurus child verplaats through life in his contented way, and u appreciate the ways in which he's different from you. You’re complete opposites in fact, on many important levels. Far from mellow, you're deep and complicated, while your little one is quite straightforward about how he's feeling and what he needs from moment to moment.

Still, despite your contrasts, u share a strong, devoted bond. Keep it that way door giving your little Taurus lots of warm, open affection. Sometimes your instinct might be to withhold your true feelings, both positive and negative ones in a self-protective urge, but that shouldn't be necessary with your child. Yes, he can be stubborn sometimes, but so can you. Try to make up as quickly as possible when u clash because u both depend on the loving connection u share.


Scorpio Parent, Gemini Child

u and your Gemini child could hardly be meer different, so you'll need to make some changes. Communication is where your little one comes into her own, so she might fill in the gaps in that area, but u must try to be open, accepting and accessible to her. She doesn't need the level of closeness that u do, but don't let that hurt your feelings. Instead of being very emotional, your little Gemini thrives on independence and mental stimulation.

Give her plenty of toys, boeken and puzzles, and don't worry when she wants to play with every child in the park. That's just her lively, curious nature at work. Draw upon your own steady, self-aware side to let your child learn in a way that's best for her. Then u can be there whenever she needs a bit of emotional support.


Scorpio Parent, Cancer Child

Similarly emotional and intuitive, u and your Cancer child share a closely devoted bond. u understand your little one's sensitive, feeling nature, and u love the way he's so dependent on you. u have little trouble giving him the affection, support and reassurance he needs. u do love exploring a good mystery of course, so that's one way in which u can be a positive influence on your little Cancer, who otherwise might stick exclusively to familiar people, stories, ideas and other influences.

u can encourage him to be a little bit adventurous and take steps outside of his comfort zone, but don't push him into uncomfortable situations. Your child's growth depends on being able to go at his own pace and being able to rely on u completely. If anything happens to damage his trust in you, he'll withdraw into his shell and it will take time to bond again.


Scorpio Parent, Leo Child

With her sunny, warm, passionate energy, your Leo child is a natural leader. She's the centre of fun at her many play dates. Even a walk in the park often results in little Leo charming a group of new friends. This makes u smile proudly, amused door your little one's natural popularity and quite relieved that she takes the focus away from you. Centre stage makes u uncomfortable, so it's a good thing your child thrives there!

Your little Leo is quite aware of her own power, which is very different from yours. Still, she depends on u for a solid, dependable emotional base and needs your positive support and feedback. Though outwardly fearless, she's nearly as sensitive as u are! Good thing you're emotionally aware enough to be the strong foundation your little Leo needs to thrive.


Scorpio Parent, Virgo Child

Your Virgo child is practical and orderly from a very young age. u often find him organising his toys and cleaning up his playroom, which makes u laugh. How ironic that your little one hates chaos, while u almost seem to pursue it! Of course, it's not chaos you're interested in so much as emotional honesty, which can get complicated fast.

Your little Virgo, on the other hand, appreciates simplicity and efficiency. He doesn't quite understand the depths of your emotions, and when you're angry of upset, u might actually scare him. Virgo children tend to be emotionally reserved, but they do need a strong, stable home pagina life to thrive. Try to connect with your child in an emotionally open way. Focus on the part of your connection that's pure and devoted, as that's the part little Virgo will cling to.


Scorpio Parent, Libra Child

You've always been fascinated door the dark side of life, including raw emotions, secrets and mysteries, so u might find your Libra child a bit, well, frivolous. She's just so sweet and affectionate! Of course, u and your child both know instinctively how to attract people to you, but u are meer charming, while your little Libra likes to laugh, cuddle and get along with everyone.

Don't try too hard to control this little one, as she needs freedom to verplaats around, connect with other children and pursue her creative interests. And when you're upset, be very careful how u express your feelings. Your child is sensitive and hates conflict, and she'll go out of her way to keep a friendly connection with you. Try not to put her in the position of having to soothe her own parent.


Scorpio Parent, Scorpio Child

Since your Scorpio child is as passionate and emotional as u are, u share an intensely devoted bond, complete with plenty of ups and downs. u might get into some real battles as u work through the usual parent-child issues, such as vragen of freedom, boundaries and privileges. Just like you, your little Scorpio wants to control his own life and pursue his own interests. He believes he's deeper than anyone can understand, so it might really bother him that u get exactly where he's coming from!

Furthermore, if u have other children, expect some jealousy when you're paying meer attention to them than to your possessive Scorpio child, who wants to be assured that his place in your hart-, hart is secure. Of course, u should understand that motivation, as just like you, all your little one wants is a powerful, loving connection.


Scorpio Parent, Sagittarius Child

You'll have to go against your nature to give your Sagittarius child the freedom she thrives on, because this little one is a natural-born adventurer. Bright-eyed, curious and independent, she needs space and flexibility to explore the boundaries of her world, and even push past those boundaries into new territory. That's one part of her personality to which u can definitely relate!

Your child also needs the freedom to connect with other children, which could be a little difficult for u to go along with. Your instinct as a parent is to establish a close, emotionally intense connection with your child, but your little Sagittarius just isn't as deep feeling as u are, nor as closely attached. Her main interest in life is the thrill of new experiences, so try to take a meer hands-off approach throughout her childhood and enjoy watching her playful, spirited personality develop.


Scorpio Parent, Capricorn Child

Your Capricorn child is as intense as u are, but about different things. He isn't nearly as emotional of intuitive as you. Instead, even from an early age, he leans towards responsibility and reputation, which are concerns that u just don't find very important. You're meer interested in self-awareness and understanding the mysteries of human nature.

Still, your job is to let your little Capricorn develop in the way that comes most naturally to him, which means respecting, of at least accepting, both his natural ambition and his need for emotional privacy. Do, however, encourage him to be meer expressive of his feelings. u can be a very good influence on him in this way, if u try. u both feel most secure when u know you're anchored door deep, strong roots, so focus on creating a solid family foundation for your little one.


Scorpio Parent, Aquarius Child

You've always loved a good mystery, and while your Aquarius child isn't exactly mysterious, she's quite surprising and intriguing. There's brilliance at work in that unique little mind of hers, which fascinates u from the very start. Still, your child needs lots of freedom to explore, and giving her that freedom could go against your nature.

u want to share a closely devoted bond with your child, but little Aquarius is far less emotionally open than u are, and any attempts to control her will only spark her rebellious side. Try to understand and accept that your child is securely attached to u in her own way. You'll find that she responds far better to a relaxed parenting approach than to heavy emotional demands. Possessiveness triggers her stubborn streak, so similar to your own, so try not to worry as u let your little one wander.


Scorpio Parent, Pisces Child

Your Pisces child has a deeply feeling nature, just like u do, and he shares your primary need for a devoted, emotional connection with a loved one. u make a wonderful parent-child match, because your instinct as a parent is to forge a strong, sure bond with your child.

u also love the way your little Pisces understands your feelings, even from a young age. u can be rather intense, but your child's sweet, affectionate nature is one of the few that's able to soften u up a little. In fact, go out of your way to be particularly sensitive with your little Pisces. He isn't as emotionally tough and self-protective as u are, so u should take care to understand his feelings, even while u help him become mentally stronger. That’s so important in this sometimes harsh world.


Sagittarius Parent, Aries Child

u and your Aries child share an active, energetic connection. Neither of u is interested in spending long, lazy afternoons at home, and in this respect, you're a great match. Both of u love getting outside and testing your natural athletic skills. Your little one's competitive streak will make u smile even as it pushes u to improve your own personal best!

You'll spend plenty of time chasing after your little Aries as she charges at life. Actually, maybe u won't chase after her. Perhaps instead, you'll simply let her charge, make the occasional mistake, learn from the experience and verplaats on. You're a big believer in experimental learning, and you're not one to hinder your child's freedom. She'll always appreciate your relaxed parenting style because it allows her to follow her impulses and embrace life in her own bold, spirited way.


Sagittarius Parent, Taurus Child

Your parental instinct is to give your children all the freedom they need, but your Taurus child is naturally pretty dependent. He isn't clingy, but he does enjoy lots of affection, not to mention time spent relaxing, which isn't really your thing. You're much meer likely to suggest a game of chase in the back garden than a nap in the sun, which is what your Taurus may prefer.

On the other hand, this naturally strong, sturdy child does enjoy athletic pursuits - to a point. Just don't push him too hard to perform, of he'll dig his heels in. It’s a good thing u have a "live and let live" attitude! You'll let your child learn and behave in the ways that are most natural for him, but u might get somewhat restless as u try to slow down to match your Taurus child's mellow pace.


Sagittarius Parent, Gemini Child

u love your Gemini child's playful energy. Her sharp, curious mind and intelligence delight u from the start. Even when your little one is still in nappies, u have a great time trying to keep up with her as she scoots around on the floor, getting into anything and everything within reach!

u and your little Gemini share a passion for adventure, so neither of u is interested in spending much time at home. Instead, u love getting out into the bright, interesting world. Trips to the museum of bibliotheek are a favourite for both of you, as u love the mental stimulation of exciting new ideas. Both a bit flighty and eccentric, u make a wonderful parent-child match. Due in part to your own limitless energy, your little one's upbringing is one exciting thrill after another, and that's just how she likes it!


Sagittarius Parent, Cancer Child

You've always been quite adventurous, practically chomping at the bit to explore the world, but your emotionally sensitive Cancer child much prefers being at home. Easily overwhelmed door the uncertainty of new experiences, he's far meer comfortable surrounded door familiar faces and settings, something to which you'll have to adjust.

Your instinct is to hold your child's hand and lead him out into life's many attractions, but he will have to be coaxed very gently if he's to leave his comfort zone at all. You'll only be able to increase your child's self-esteem and sense of security in the universe if u ease him, rather than pushing him, into unfamiliar situations. Any break in trust, however accidental, will be a big step back for sensitive little Cancer, who needs time to lick any emotional wounds.


Sagittarius Parent, Leo Child

Your Leo child's high energy and love of adventure delight u from the start, since these qualities mirror your own. u adore watching her blow the down off her first dandelion of make her first goal for the local football team. Your little one is thoroughly engaged with the world, and you're right there on the sidelines of her childhood, cheering as she tackles one new life experience after another.

Give your little one plenty of warmth, praise and affection, because although Leo children seem strong and courageous, they also crave closeness and approval. This shouldn't be a tall order, since u share such a natural bond. Your little Leo is happy to explore this bright, colourful world with you.


Sagittarius Parent, Virgo Child

You've always been brave and curious, interested in soaking up life experiences and unafraid of making mistakes, so your Virgo child's mature habit of weighing up the pros and cons of each new situation may surprise you. Where did such practicality come from? Certainly not you!

Your little Virgo needs a sense of security and order in life. u often find him cleaning his room without being told of completing his homework ahead of its due date. In fact, your laid-back attitude might make your little Virgo uncomfortable. Your parent-child relationship could end up turning on its head, with your child assuming certain parental responsibilities as u behave at times like the playful youth! Don't let this dynamic go too far. As much as your Virgo child needs to learn to relax and enjoy life's constant adventure, he still needs a dependable parent.


Sagittarius Parent, Libra Child

You're all about inhaling the adventure of life. u love going camping, on long treks, as well as seeking the lights, sights, and thrills of funfairs and theme parks. u may dream of bringing your Libra child along on your many escapades, and she does love getting out into the world, but she's meer interested in social pursuits.

Unlike you, she cares less about experience for its own sake than about friendship and spending time with lots of different people. She's naturally populair and will receive lots of invitations, even as a young child. Good thing u also enjoy attending her many friends' birthday parties and play dates! u can encourage a philosophical perspective in your little Libra, who is naturally curious and intelligent, but who, without your influence, might forget to consider the bigger concepts of the universe.


Sagittarius Parent, Scorpio Child

Your Scorpio child is emotionally deeper than u could guess. u on the other hand, are straightforward and honest to a fault. Your feelings are immediately apparent to others and, with you, what u see really is what u get. Not so with your complicated little Scorpio, who hides intense passions and plenty of insecurity behind a cool, controlled exterior. At least, he's controlled most of the time! His occasional, out-of-nowhere tantrums surprise u with their force.

The truth is, in terms of needs and basic personalities, u and your child are very different. While you're all about learning, experience and freedom, your little one is meer interested in self-knowledge, as well as emotional closeness and reassurance. Though dependability isn't one of your strongest points, give your child as much love and steady support as u can. Losing your focus on him only heightens his fears and his resulting need for control.


Sagittarius Parent, Sagittarius Child

Just like you, your Sagittarius child is happiest when outside of starting on a grand adventure. You're both naturally athletic, and u can help develop that door playing games of chase in the park of kicking a football back and forth to improve your child's coordination.

In general, getting out of the house together is a must. Trips to the bibliotheek of the zoo are big favourites for both of you, as are weekend hiking of camping trips and visits to other cities of even countries. Yes, u have a natural traveller on your hands! u and your little adventurer are a wonderful parent-child match, as you're both always on the go and up for anything exciting of educational. Your young Sagittarius absorbs everything u have to teach her, so present her with plenty of books, people and ideas.


Sagittarius Parent, Capricorn Child

Even from an early age, your little Capricorn is likely to be meer practical and dependable than u are. While you're a child at heart, he's serious and mature, even when he's still in nappies! He has a well-developed sense of responsibility, not to mention a deep need for stability, so your playful, care-free energy might make him feel meer than a bit insecure. u can help him lighten up a little, but do try to give him the secure base he needs, even though reliability isn't exactly your strong point.

Your child is ambitious and hard-working door nature, so praise him for completing his homework early and taking such good care of your family pets. Then remind him that all work and no play would make anyone a little dull, and get him out of the house for some eye-opening, mind-expanding fun!


Sagittarius Parent, Aquarius Child

u appreciate your Aquarius child's initiative and her freedom-loving, independent nature. An adventurer yourself, you're impressed with your little one's brilliant imagination and her tuned-in approach to life. Even from a young age, she wants to be out in the world, mixing with other people and experiencing anything unique and unusual, and you're happy to go along for the ride. As parent and child, you're very well matched in this way.

You've always loved learning and experiencing new things, but as your Aquarius child grows up, u may find her going beyond u in her ability to understand complex issues and make real changes in the world. You're curious, but she's downright innovative - a scientist of inventor at heart. gegeven the right kind of encouragement, this little one's inner genius will develop rapidly, paving the way for some truly incredible discoveries.


Sagittarius Parent, Pisces Child

Your sensitive Pisces child needs lots of emotional support and reassurance, which at times can be a tall order for u to provide. Of course u have the best of intentions, but you've always been playful and care-free, and u don't spend a lot of time considering feelings, whether they are yours of anyone else's. Good thing your little Pisces is so sweet and charming! That makes it a lot easier to return his love in a clear, consistent way. It would be hard not to respond to his enthusiastic affection.

Still, try to be a bit meer careful than usual with this tender-hearted, vulnerable child, and appreciate the fact that he's emotionally in sync with you. Otherwise, u might not even realise that u hold a central role in his hart-, hart and that he looks to u for guidance.


Capricorn Parent, Aries Child

u take your responsibilities seriously, and u want to give your Aries child the best life possible, but this little one is extremely independent! Giving your child the freedom she needs goes against your instincts as a parent. u want to keep her on a strict routine for meals, bedtime, homework and chores, but little Aries rebels against such a rigid schedule. She wants to be her own master, even as a child. Her impulsive, passionate nature demands that she lives life on her own terms. u may see her natural spontaneity as recklessness and her lust for life as irresponsibility.

While u can, and should, encourage a sense of duty in your child, try not to trample all over her joy of life! That spirited nature is part of Aries' charm. Focus on helping her control her temper, then stand back and let her shine.


Capricorn Parent, Taurus Child

Though your Taurus child shares your practical, down-to-earth nature, he isn't as driven of dutiful as u might wish. Of course, he's naturally strong and determined, and he can really buckle down to business when he wants to. The only problem is he acts on his own agenda, not yours!

You've always had a strong work ethic, and u take your parental responsibilities seriously, but u should make allowances for your little one's self-indulgent nature. Part of his job in this life is to enjoy himself and spread his natural, earthy pleasure around. In fact, u could take some tips from your child in learning to relax meer and worry less. For starters, don't let little Taurus' apparent lack of ambition concern you. He's willing to work hard when he has a worthy goal in sight, and he's sure to make u proud.


Capricorn Parent, Gemini Child

u take your role as a parent seriously, but your Gemini child is very different from you. Some of your surest theories on how to raise a child, such as imposing a schedule for homework, family time, bedtime and more, just won't work with this spontaneous little one. In fact, if u try to subject this clever trickster to a rigid routine, she'll wriggle right out of your grasp, laughing all the way! Don't let this frustrate you. Instead, stretch yourself to accommodate your little Gemini's playful nature.

This child wasn't built to follow strict timetables, and she didn't inherit your ambition either. Little Gemini's curious mind and mischievous nature are meant to shake things up for u and everyone else around. Just remember, the meer u try to restrict this child, the meer she'll find ways to avoid your control. Don't struggle against her changeable energy, work with it instead!


Capricorn Parent, Cancer Child

Your sensitive Cancer child needs firm, consistent support to feel secure, which is exactly your strong point. u take your job as a parent seriously and you're very dependable. Your little Cancer appreciates knowing the rules at home, such as when meals are served, what his bedtime is, and more. And though you're a natural at providing a stable base for your child, don't skimp on tonen lots of love and affection too.

You're strong on practical concerns like financial stability and a responsible work ethic, but a bit short on developing and maintaining connections with others. Your worries and ambitions tend to eclipse your relationships with loved ones, but allowing that to happen with your Cancer child would be like starving him emotionally. toon him just how much u love him with lots of hugs, kisses and words of praise.


Capricorn Parent, Leo Child

Your Leo child thrives in your dedicated, stable care, but the older she gets, the meer she's sure to push against your strict, serious approach to life. Naturally warm-hearted and playful, little Leo sees the world as her stage and other people as her built-in, adoring audience. She wants to entertain everyone, especially you. Don't tell her off for not taking life as seriously as u do, as this will stifle her natural spirit. Instead, focus on learning to accept and appreciate her passion and dramatic expression. Praise her for that impromptu after-dinner dance performance of the painting she made for you. These seemingly unimportant bits of encouragement will feed your little Leo's soul and help to develop her creativity as well!


Capricorn Parent, Virgo Child

Your Virgo child takes after u in so many ways. He's grounded and practical, even as a youth, and he appreciates the well-ordered, stable home pagina life u provide. He thrives in a structured environment, which feeds his preference for symmetry and organisation. u notice and appreciate early on the way your little Virgo keeps his room clean and helps out with the housework, often without being asked. All of that is wonderful, but who brings the humour to your lives?

u and your child are both mature for your age, perhaps overly so. You're both emotionally reserved, and u respond meer to practical concerns than to emotional appeals. If there's no one around to lighten the mood and remind u to relax and - gasp! - play once in a while, life in your house could get pretty serious.


Capricorn Parent, Libra Child

Establishing a routine for meals, sticking to a regular bedtime - these are the cornerstones of your parenting theory. u believe your family's contentment depends on having a well-defined system in place, but your Libra child isn't as concerned as u are with material security. Sweet-natured and affectionate, she'd much rather receive your warm, spontaneous cuddle than high praise for tidying up her toys without being asked. Still, little Libra wants to please you, so she'll find ways to obtain that approval.

However, hard work isn't really in Libra's nature. This populair child is built for enjoying parties, play dates and the company of good friends. In your eyes, these amount to little meer than pointless leisure activities, but don't begrudge your little Libra her social life. This child is a born networker, and one day, those childhood connections could turn into important career contacts.


Capricorn Parent & Scorpio Child

Your Scorpio child needs lots of emotional support, perhaps meer than you're able to give. You're excellent at providing material security, such as a comfortable home, a steady income, a well-structured family life and more, but emotional intimacy has never been your strong point. u respond best to neat efficiency, and feelings can be so messy and illogical. Your little Scorpio practically defines the messiness of human emotions! This passionate, intense child's occasional tantrums take u door surprise, and his tendency to brood mystifies you.

Giving your little one what he needs at a feeling level means stepping outside of your comfort zone, but it's well worth the effort. Your child hides real vulnerability behind his powerful personality, and it's your job to give him the reassurance he needs. You're utterly devoted to your loved ones, so let your little Scorpio know you'll do anything for him.


Capricorn Parent, Sagittarius Child

u have a solid sense of your responsibilities as a parent, but your playful, head-strong Sagittarius child is likely to rebel against the rules and systems u put in place. You're most comfortable with bedtime routines and meal charts, but your little Sagittarius needs a much meer relaxed schedule than this. u find it hard to give her the freedom she thrives on, but try anyway, because this child learns best door exploring the boundaries of her world and taking risks that may shock you.

u do appreciate your little Sagittarius' strong moral compass, something she surely inherited from you. She's meer willing than u are to vraag traditional values though, and learn meer about life's many mysteries. In fact, u can take a cue from your child about becoming meer open-minded, since u tend to be somewhat rigid, even conservative, in your thinking.


Capricorn Parent, Capricorn Child

u may have to schedule in playtime with your Capricorn child, because you're both born planners and u might forget the importance of fun if u don't pencil it in! Your little Capricorn is as responsible and security-conscious as u are, even as a young child.

Just like you, he's wise beyond his years, and a little too serious, though not for your tastes. u appreciate his practical outlook and understand his need for stability. You're able to provide him with a comfortable home pagina and a solid moral foundation, but don't neglect the importance of a little good, oubollig, ouderwetse fun and relaxation. When u take your child to the library, let him browse in the children's section instead of guiding him toward the reference books.


Capricorn Parent, Aquarius Child

You're quite impressed door your Aquarius child's natural intelligence. Even when she's very young, u can tell you've got a brilliant thinker on your hands. This child could grow up to be an important scientist, strategist of inventor! Don't push any particular career path on your little one though. Instead, let her explore ideas and influences in her own way and at her own pace. Give her plenty of time and encouragement to investigate her many theories.

You'll find that your little Aquarius has plenty of drive, but her unusual interests may challenge your traditional values.
