Quite childlike by nature, Aries make great parents thanks to their leadership skills. Fiery and confident, they make strong role models for the younger generation.
However, Aries are known to have short tempers at the best of times, so they should be careful to rein in their frustration when things don't go to plan.
People born in Leo exude positivity. Just like Aries, they have a childlike energy that makes spending time with young people an attractive prospect.
Leo parents relate extremely well to their kids, although they should take care to remember their first role is as a parent, rather than a friend.
The most adventurous of the star signs, Sagittarius loves to experience new things. Sag parents tend to enjoy travel and will encourage their children to follow their desires.
Travel is great for kids, but they also need stability. Sagittarius parents should be careful to establish a solid foundation, which is not something that necessarily comes naturally.
Education and socializing will be important components in the life of any Gemini's child.
Of course, education and socializing are great. But Geminis should be careful not to talk at their children, a risk for parents who love to instruct their little ones.
Libras are great at managing relationships and tend to make strong co-parents. Their strength lies in their ability to resolve family disputes with relative ease.
However, Libra parents must be careful not to be too permissive. They have a tendency to be very lax sometimes, and to let their children run rings round them.
Aquarius is naturally individualistic and can find it difficult to form bonds with others, even, unfortunately, their own children. This can be a problem when kids are young.
Aquarius parents tend to come into their own when their kids are a bit older and can connect on a more adult level. At this point the parent-child relationship will strengthen.
The water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces) are emotionally intuitive and empathetic. Their main downfall comes when they get too swept up in their feelings.
Cancer loves home and family life, and parents born under this star sign will do their utmost to create a loving and warm home environment for their children.
The downside of Cancer parenting tends to be overprotectiveness. Cancer parents should be careful not to smother their children and cause them to rebel.
Scorpio is the most determined of the star signs, and people born under Scorpio often have impressive resolve. Their style of parenting is often 'tough love.'
Tough love is great for passing on strength, but Scorpio parents must be careful not to go too far with this. They must also show sufficient sensitivity to nurture their kids.
Pisces parents are incredibly empathetic and are great at caring for their kids. They are naturally attuned to their kids' feelings and relate very well to them.
The downside of this level of empathy is that Pisces parents tend to feel things too strongly. They must be careful not to throw things out of proportion and confuse the child.
Taurus will do their utmost to create a strong, nurturing environment in which to raise their kids.
Unfortunately, this can sometimes lead to overpampering. Taurus parents must be careful not to bow to their child's every wish and spoil them.
People born under Virgo are both practical and sensitive. They are solid disciplinarians, but are equally able to cater to their children's emotions.
The only potential pitfall of a Virgo parent is their perfectionism. They must be careful not to set impossibly high standards or micromanage their kids.
Capricorns have a tendency to be strict parents. They are ambitious and crave success, and they are keen to instill this attitude in their kids, too.
Capricorn parents should take care to tailor this parenting style to the individual child, since some kids respond well to this strictness, while others don't.
