I figure since I'm here I'd ask. My oldest daughter is a Scorp Nov. 1. She's only 4 and half but people are already telling me how absolutely gorgeous she is and I know as she gets older she just going to become more beautiful. I guess I just want to know what y'all were like growing up and how I should deal with certain situations (sex mostly) what are some ways I can reassure her while growing up that she can come talk to me and I won't judge her? My ex (her father) is a Scorp too and his relationship with his parents is not that great. Once he became a teen they pretty much lost control of him and he dropped out of school and started smoking weed, pretty much just getting into trouble. I'm looking to avoid all of that.

So please if you don't mind sharing your stories or words of wisdom I'd surely appreciate it!

Here is her chart too, I'd say she is a true Scorpio to the core, lol

Sun Scorpio 9.15
Moon Pisces 17.48
Mercury Scorpio 23.53 R
Venus Scorpio 10.33
Mars Scorpio 6.12
Jupiter Scorpio 25.04
Saturn Leo 24.00
Uranus Pisces 10.57 R
Neptune Aquarius 17.03
Pluto Sagittarius 24.59
Lilith Libra 1.27
Asc node Pisces 24.22

I always kept to myself as a child. I remember instead of going outside to play with other people I would just sit in my room and happily occupy myself. I was a BIG thinker and still am. I was kinda forced to be by myself though so other people may have different views.

As far as sex goes...my dad was the one who talked to me about that. From as far back as I can remember dad was always warning me about things in a way that was appropriate for my age but still clearly understandable. As I got older he got more blunt. He basically didn't sugar coat anything but he also wasn't being...weird...But he's also a Scorpio so maybe that's why he was so straight up about it and felt it was important to speak about it.

I picked up on 'adult' things (both innocent and not) very quickly...probably because I observed more than participated in things...so I always needed someone who I could unload my thoughts to and have them help me put them in the right order. If I picked up that they were judging me...either because of my age, the subject or anything else, or if I felt they were holding back important things, I wouldn't talk to them (or anyone else sometimes) about it again.

So my advice, as far as making sure she knows she can always talk to you and not be judged, is to be as open and honest with her when she questions you about things. Keep it age appropriate of course but don't turn her away when she has deep or complicated questions. If she can't get the answers she needs from you because you don't feel comfortable going there with her then she may find someone else to help her...and their influence may not be what you want for her.

I don't know if that even helps or if that is even what you were asking for but that's the main thing I remember growing up. I always knew I could go to one or both parents when I had questions because I was hardly ever turned away when I asked smaller questions. When I got into puberty and then dating and all of that I knew I could talk to my mum about it and get the answers I needed (if I hadn't been given them before hand already) and dad covered the 'boy' talk on his own without me needing to ask...so I was also always aware of that side too.

I wasn't an out of control teen and I didn't really get into trouble so I don't know what to say about that.

Thank you!

My daughter and her father are very close, when they are together there is this force field that nobody can get past, lol. She's a daddy's girl anyway but I also think it has to with them both being Scorps and maybe they just have this deep connection by default. Your story is very helpful and I really appreciate you sharing it! She has her moments when she likes to be social and play with other kids, but when she wants to be alone she makes sure to find a place to recollect herself and recharge. She's a great big sister too, and already very protective of her little sister.

O wow thank you for this posting thread!
I have a scorpio son (not yet 2) and I am a scorpio myself (not to sound haughty but i am attractive and have been told since i was very little) My son is extremely handsome, people stop me in public to let me know what a great-looking boy he is His bday is 11.7
Growing up i was kinda distant to my family- this has changed since i've grown up (i see ur dad went thru similar situation)
I was obsessed with sex yet responsible i got myself on bc pills by 17
I went to college at 17 and went awry for a few years (drug experimentation, parties, clubbing, etc.) but because my family raised me with solid values i was able to evolve into a better person today (went to a structured private school all my life)
Some advice: Just be there for your daughter (physically & emotionally), try to keep verbal abuse & criticism to a minimum we have elephant memories.

My mom is a scorpio too and when she had enough with my stuff (when i was in college) she plainly stated that she had my other younger siblings to take care of and that she tried her best and hardest with me and now i need to handle myself

that one speech got me to straighten up

Good Luck! :-)

I have two girls and 1 boy, my son who is 9 is a scorp and my 1yr old is also a scorp with the same bday as mine so we will see how this works out when she gets older. I know myself as a child I was always curious about sex and thought about it a lot so like the other people have said just talk with her about as she gets older like I will with my kids, my parents mom a pisces and a leo dad never really talk to me or my sister about sex when learned from our older cousins. My son who is 9 is a very handsome young men and I hear all the girls on his bus like him and even the girls who live by us like him and a couple of them cliam him to be their boyfriend, and I told him I give you permission to be on one's boyfriend so yes it starts early........

I was a very angry kid. I was a dishonest troubled person with a huge problem against authority. I was quiet, and didn't know how to deal with my complicated emotions until I had my first drink when I was 14. I was intense, and when I say I was vividly angry, I was really very sad and depressed. I remember wanting to run away and be reckless all the time, then die. I was also pretty violent. I didn't fight a lot, but would shoot or strangle animals. I was also curious about sex a lot. I thought about it so much that I did pretty well my first time, actually. I had a problem relating to people my age, and often times found almost no connection with my peers in school. I just felt and though more than they did. I was an under-achiever until high school. But through all this, the thing that kept me going through my troubles was my unyielding desire for power and money.

I knew even back then since I was 11 how those were the two things that I wanted. And by the time I was 15, I owned vending machines and ran a cleaning business. I had 19 jobs booked in my first week, and a staff or 14 year olds that worked for me. What's kind of funny about that is my mother yelled at me because she said I can't legally own a business. And whenever people told me I can't do something, for some reason, I feel more compelled to do it.

I think my father played a big role in not liking authority. He wanted me to do things his way. So that drove me to purposely do them my way, and then succeed. And just while I'm typing this now, I'm remembering why I was always intrigued by crime. I was 15 when I committed my first offense and I was tried as an adult. I would be arrested quite a few more times, and I would be sent to prison. This experience was actually a necessary one that I needed to have. I'm not sure why yet. All I know is that it was very painful and I seem to learn a lot from pain.

From a very young age I was very confident. I was also very creative had lots of energy but I was also a very private child. I liked to sit in my room and draw pictures for everyoneI loved. I was involved in alot of creative activities suc as jazz dance, gymnastics, ballet and hip hop. Anything I was involved in I liked tobe the best, but in a fun way and now that I think about it , it was more of a competition within myself. If someone told me I couldnt do something or I wasnt going to win for some reason I always did lol. When I was very small mean ppl or comments didnt really bother me, but now for some reason men ppl rally make me sad and theyre mean words as an adult stay with me. But when I was little I was never the type of a child that was bratty if my mother couldnt buy me a new doll I nevr screamed and threw a fit in the store I simply said ok because with out it being said I knew that if she couldnt do something for me or buy me something I always knew that it was because we had to pay for something very important. I never was pretty mature when it came to family situations. I will say once I got to my teen age years I became rebellious (sort of) im kinda sneaky so lots of things no one knows about to this day but as a teen my privelages got taken away due to a strict Old fashioned Taurus GRANDMOTHER and a nosey Pisces Aunt for no reason. After that happened my personality changed. I became very introverted, sad and depressed I startd to feel very alone. I needed alot of affection then andI still do. I mean even think about how many hugs I got this week. All I can say is to be very understanding and open and willing to listen and NOT JUDGE the scorpio because for us to even get up the courage to let u know a personal secret is a BIG DEAL. We dont trust ANYONE very easily. And we remember bad things, situations, pLACES, feelings and ppl for a long time. So anything you do with a scorpio do it from a gentle and loving way.. even if its discipline. Being yelled at or just told
something disrespectul like "because I said so!!!" is so disrepectful to a scorpio Just take it out and you will see scorpio will do better and be better. I was always a mommys girl, but I cme from a single parent household I donthave any relationship at all with my father but I feel as tho if he was in my life from the start I may have been daddys little angel. You know... one of those types lol

Well Im only speaking about myself Scorpios are drastic individuals

Thanks for sharing your stories!

My baby is very sensitive and cries quite easily when her feelings are hurt. Just like everyone said she is very intuitive and knows when something is wrong and she hates to seem me cry. She's very sweet though, she'll pat my back and tell me everything is ok, lol. I do have to watch my tone with her sometimes and can be a little strict, but for the most part if she ask me why I said no to something I will explain it to her so she'll understand better.

Growing up I got along with others, but at the same time i was different from others and i guess thought on a different level from other people. There would be times when i would play outside with the other kids. And there would be times when i would just have a blast all by myself outside or just shacked up in my room with the door closed playing with toys and watching cartoons. When we're alone our minds really go to work.
Deffinently could tell if something was right or wrong at a very early age and would sometimes blurt something out loud like "hey thats not right" or ask too many questions which would sometimes get me in trouble with the parents. Especially my scorpio dad lol (i'm Nov 2nd hes Nov 4th). But the fact you explain why you told her she could or couldnt do anything is a really good thing. Becuase with my rents it was always "because i said so!" and all that does is create problems.

Also was kind of a loner in school. Not that i didnt have any friends. But i wouldnt do anything or go all out just to be in the "crowd". So at times being a scorp was a good thing and kept me out of trouble with intuition, but at the same time standing out made me a target in many situations (teachers, fights, among other siblings etc.).
