The Scorpio father is alas, one of the most prolific types, and the poorest equipped to bring up children. They are impatient, ambitious, tyrannical and severe. Their devotion to their children is boundless, but their behaviour lacks common sense and control,. They are often harsh, and their methods of disciplining someone are too severe.

Despite the fact that the Scorpio father is very intuitive and knowledgeable himself, they do not know how to restrain themselves into harnessing their radical; behaviour and they often fail as a good parent.

I'm glad my older brother don't see this.. Yicks~!!    LOL

Hmm, yep, my Father was clueless but he is still the best person to have ever touched my life and did an amazing job as an only parent.

But he did commonly fly off the handle; so many times he would scream at me for no apparent reason and give me the proverbial Scorpionic stare... he demanded a hell of a lot of attention.

He seemed to appreciate that I wasn't "perfect", because he clearly seemed to enjoy keeping it that way.  He always wanted me to stay his little girl and I honestly believe he feared my emotional and intellectual growth, whenever I would share actual facts and things I was capable of tangibly pursuing, he would get all fussy and upset, yet when it came to spirituality or relating on an emotional level he was deeply a part of me.

A few years b4 he died I would sit and talk with him for hours philosophically and spiritually, and he would sit content and listen, share from time to time...  His receptivity has been a blessing....  Without it I'm convinced only he would be in my place right now.  

but we  love our children  boundlessly

I have a an Aquarian father. Needless to say, he has always been irresponsible, hot tempered, unemotional, aloof, uncaring! Never hugged.
His anger is bad that it can take the hell of out of anyone! Even a stronger person!

I am a Pisces very emotional and sensitive. He never even payed for our medicines, clothing or anything except for schooling!

I really miss a dad's role in my life. I know Cancers and Scorps are equally very loving and caring, that is why I wish I had a father like one of them.
