My youngest, God love him.. Hes a spaz. All over the place. We have the hardest time reaching him sometimes. My oldest I can tell to sit down quietly and eat his dinner, but my youngest.. Hell take a bite, needs to walk around, talk to the wall, look at something over there, sit down take a bite, get up, repeat.. We put him in baseball again this year and its ....going better.... Hes interested, but we just cant seem to form a great line of communication. Anyone see a good way of "reaching" him? IP: Logged |

A spaz?? are you sure he isnt a highly intelligent boy that needs more understanding and stimulation?I have one that walks around all the time and cant sit still...would never call him a spaz though, he is a very clever and sensitive lad IP: Logged |

he has a chiron moon conj...not overly close but even so that shows immense sensitivity..he needs gentle nurturing and lots of understanding. it can indicate painful relationship around womenIP: Logged |

I use spaz as an enduring term. I myself am a little spastic..I know he has a great mind in there, I just don't know how to help him guide it out I don't want to hinder him because I'm not understand ... does that make sense? IP: Logged |

How old is your son, if I may ask?My son, whose IQ is well in the gifted range, was like that unto the age of 7. The only way I could get him to sit and eat was by reading stories to him. When even younger, he wouldn't sit and eat at all, I followed wrong advice from others, and wouldn't let him eat unless he sat. He lost weight and stayed hungry. Thank goodness I saw the error of my ways. This condition is linked to dyspraxia in the case of my son. It, however, has no bearing on intelligence and how they might turn out when older. He has done amazingly well in studies and at work. So, just go along with how your son is. Moon conjunct Neptune people have an amazing imagination and are very sensitive to the environment. No one has an idea of how the development process is taking place within him, and you cannot impose your expectations on his mind. Respect him for what he is and give him space. IP: Logged |

he also has moon conj neptune, which would add to the sensititvity and give him a deep and strong imagination and head-in-the-clouds IP: Logged |

He's six.This for yalls input! He does get his feelings hurt by his father and I easily. He'll try and put on a tough guy act and force anger out instead of tears, but when I let him know it's okay to cry about it, the tears start flowing I've noticed I suppress a lot of my hurt emotions. Its like in today's society everyone's trying to hide their true emotions; "don't cry! Don't cry!" I don't want that for him. For some reason I feel like it's important to help guide him with his emotions or something might "explode" one day. He does have the sweetest side. He loves our cat, and she loves him probably the most out of the rest of the family. She brings out a calm and sweet side. He is just such a special boy and I want to do right by him.

He is a Scorpio the same as my son and myselfWe are innately sensitive..we need sensitive people around us to grow and blossom well..if not we can turn inward. Scorpio people need gentleness, not name calling (even in jest), they do well with other water signs and maybe earth signs around them We need to be told a lot that we are loved IP: Logged |

Poor dear.. Im a very strong fire and his father is a air as well as his brother. I have noticed 8x out of 10 his attitude will do a 180 if I ask him if he needs a hug, or I tell him, 'You know I love you very much...' I am just so scared hes going to grow up feeling misunderstood or unloved and turn it into negative traits (anger, addiction, etc)
Its just, Im not very good with 'sensitive'. Besides hugs and kisses, which Ive only become comfortable with with my kids, I dont really know what the word means. ...that sounds cruel and insensitive, but its honest.

yep poor dear. he needs big empathy! i grew up with a fire dad and coldish earth mother and nasty fire sign sister...they kind of crucified me. i ended up struggling..but am very happy now, i found my own way through studying healing and lots of that and therapy helped. hope your lad finds his way, being a Scorp can be pretty damn difficult at timesIP: Logged |
