Family life was good for Julian until he turned thirteen and his powers manifested. He began to be able to move things with his mind and immediately told his parents.  While not members of any mutant hate groups, William and Elizabeth didn't have any particular care for mutants and advised their son to keep his abilities quiet.  For a while, Julian obeyed his parents and did as they asked, not using his abilities in public.  But as he grew older he would practice with his powers in private, moving around his room almost every day - much to his parents' dismay.  He turned from favored son to black sheep in the blink of an eye and Elizabeth's reaction was to send him to a counselor to curb his rebelliousness.  The counselor enlisted him in a mutant support group and Julian began to learn about the struggles of others like him.

Just after the start of his Junior year, Julian decided that he could no longer live "in-the-closet" and came out as a mutant at school.  He was immediately expelled and his parents began looking into reform schools.  Julian lost his friends and support networks, the only one who didn't hate him was James- who was being groomed to take over the company in his place and wasn't able to show the support he wanted to.  Before William could enroll Julian in a school out in the middle of the Nevada desert, he received a phone call from someone named Charles Xavier and was quickly sold on his private academy in upstate New York.  During Julian's time at Xavier's, his reckless spending and acting out caused his father to lose patience with him. A [[Malibu Madness|misunderstanding]] led to Julian being humilated in front of his Xavier's friends when his family 'forgot' they'd invited Julian and his friends to the beach house in Malibu and were instead on vacation in Hawaii. Eventually, relations reached breaking point after Julian bought himself a car for his birthday and his father legally disowned him.
