Summary
The Aquarius parent
As an Aquarius parent, you encourage your children’s freedom and independence. You may have an unconventional family life. Your home is likely to be filled with your children’s artwork, current projects, and other random items.
Since you love to push the boundaries of what’s considered normal, you won’t mind your kids dyeing their hair green or trying on an interesting new dress style. For you, these unique forms of personal expression are the very essence of youth! You also have enough loyalty and stability to provide a solid foundation for your family.
You are just not tied to traditional family or gender roles, and you are happy in your freedom. You have always had a wide variety of friends and acquaintances, and you teach your children to be open-minded and curious about people from all walks of life. You also encourage their ability to think deeply and find creative solutions to their problems. You are a great role model in looking to the future rather than getting bogged down in the present or the past.
Your main challenge as a parent may be learning to open up emotionally to your children. You tend to be more comfortable with intellectual thinking than with feelings, so you should strive to be loving and caring.
The relationship of the Aquarius parent with his child
Aquarius, by virtue of an innate humanity, can miraculously « solve » a situation peacefully, reconcile quarrels, choose the best option that is suitable for everyone. Aquarius parents are able to guide children competently, without using pressure and yelling, to inspire them and bring about a real solution to the problem.

Aquarius in child rearing relies on a friendly disposition, not wanting to offend or humiliate the younger members of the family. Parents are not only trying to say what to do, but they want to awaken in children an interest in what is happening, so that the personal contribution of each to the common cause is invested.
Aquarius parents always try to encourage and praise their offspring, so that the positive memory and gratitude received is retained.
Aquarius parents have a wide range of interests and try to create a nice outlook in their children, being interested in their affairs in various fields of activity. In such families, children are simply fascinated by their parents, because they value the confidence of adults.

Mother Aquarius, at first, is somewhat discouraged by the newly born child, because before that she had gotten used to giving her attention and love to many people around her, and now all of this must be focused on one small being.
The Aquarius mother is very sensitive and understands all the states of her child. With her calm and energy, she positively influences the child, creating a calm and free atmosphere.
Deep down in her soul, this mother is very attached to her children. When the baby grows up and can consciously perceive life with all its manifestations, the Aquarius mom can teach him to love others, to be tolerant of their faults, to forgive, to recognize good and bad, not to always say only the truth.
The Aquarius mother is able to understand her child well, which helps her in her education and development. The most important thing for an Aquarius mother is to find a value system by which to develop and nurture a child. She doesn’t tend to follow traditions and rules because she always wants to be free. Therefore, she creates a value system for herself.
