FAQ
- Does Qi Sha in the Children Palace cause constant parent-child conflict?
- Not necessarily. It creates a baseline of independence and forceful opinions, so conflict becomes more likely when discipline turns into direct control; a milder overall placement may show as courage and self-direction instead. Set the essential boundary clearly and leave room for the child to decide how to act within it.

Qi Sha is more decisive, hard-edged, and ready for direct confrontation, while Po Jun is more inclined to overturn arrangements and keep changing course; strength in the chart modifies either expression. Look first at whether the recurring issue is a contest of wills or a drive to break the existing pattern.
