During a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Christina Aguilera mentioned that her son Max is very protective of her:“If he was here right now, when you shook my hand, he’d be like, ‘Don’t touch my mommy!’ He doesn’t get the whole thing yet that mommy is a public personality so he’s very protective."
“When I’m getting my makeup done, he’s like, ‘No! Don’t touch!’ It’ll be interesting to see how he reacts to a tour.”
Max doesn't have a lot of planetary placements in his chart that would tend to indicate possessiveness, but Mlle. Kiddie suspects that Pluto in Max's 4th House of Home and Family might be a clue to his behavior with his mother. Pluto intensifies and deepens whatever it touches, and in the 4th house, we forge our family connections, so while most children form a deep attachment to their parents, Max's may be even more intense.
More would be revealed if it was known whether this behavior started before Christina and Max's father, Jordan Bratman, split. Because Pluto can indicate a deep attachment to something (in this case, to mom, it being in the 4th house) it can also be a place where we develop a profound fear or longing if that attachment feels threatened. This is indicated in Max's Kiddiegram:

Max is apt to have a very intense relationship with one or both of his parents. It may be stormy and difficult, or it may simply be an unusually close, strong attachment of which he's very much aware. Max is affected by the emotional undercurrents, secrets, or power dynamics in his home. Healing or clearing away some old family business will a part of his life task.With Mars in the opposite position from Pluto, and forming a square to his Ascendant, Max may be establishing himself early on as 'defender' of the family, reacting to his deep desire to stay safe with mom (or perhaps keep mom safe) by defending her against others' touch. The planet Mars is often known as the warrior planet, and many people think of it astrologically as how we initiate, or attack, going after what we want, but a warrior also defends, just as Max is doing. Mlle. Kiddie hopes mom Christina can ease Max into 'standing down'!
