Not everyone pays as much attention to their moods and impulses, yeah.

I've never had much of a choice. Most Force-sensitives don't, I imagine.

[ezra_of_lothal]

Hmm, I don't know.

Wouldn't be much point to Jedi training if it always came naturally to people.

[hopesparks]

True.

I've had to train since I was a toddler, for my safety and others'.

So I guess it only *feels* like it comes naturally.

I know that Force sensitive children, even that young, can be considered dangerous, and that's why the Temple system existed.

I've always wondered how much that just other people being scared of kids that were different, though. I don't remember hurting anyone until they tried to hurt me.

It probably depends on the community and culture. And without the Jedi, it's harder to spot Force-sensitivity, I think. No one knows what to look for.

I don't know if anyone was ever scared of me. I grew up around people who already knew what I was.

I think my parents has some idea. But they never really let on.

I definitely weirded out other kids, when I was on my own.

Maybe one of them was Force-sensitive as well. It tends to run in families.

If it makes you feel better, I used to weird out other kids by just being me.
