How do I tell my mum...

ok, 1) stop cutting.. its f*in stupid and you could get 5150 called on you 4 it.. I did.. 2) who cares what they call u?? im scene and my bro calles me goth and my sis calles me emo.. I just dont let it bother me..

y is every answer on this page trying to solve every prob EXCEPT the one your concerned about? o well according to many people im goth or emo or wutevr. I don’t realy enjoy labels at least your mum even considers you goth mine thinks im going thro a faze either be upfront about it and tell her or just let her thnk what she thnks

a. cutting yourself just means you have a mental disorder. not that you are emo b. stop cutting yourself and find better ways to cope c. find a healthier expression of self

your a goth stupid. Emo Is Emotional just because you cut doesnt make you emo. Your style is goth. I Used To cut and I wear regular clothes then I moved on to better things. no offense to anyone whos truley emo but to you Get over yourself.

Ok man I’m goth and had the same problem just tell her “Mom I’m emo” if she dosen’t know what that is tell her its “A way to deal with problems” if not and she knows what it is I don’t know man

You’re a pathetic poser by labeling yourself and doing all these things. Why would you tell your mom? What a stupid thing to talk about. Start acting like a normal kid.

um, sorry if this is a dumb question but I a dumb person so I gonna ask it anyway and I am sorry if this offends you but what is the difference between goth and emo?

Because I want them to know that im not Goth and I don’t want my brother saying my secrets and I want to have a snake bite piercing or at least a tattoo

Yeah but 1 my mum thinks emo is a haircut 2 I explained to my dad what an emo is and I didnt say I was 3 my brother is trying to make me the family freak not help me.

just if she mentions the fact your a gosh just say no im an emo and ask your brother to back you up.. she probably doesnt understand

Do goths even still exist? I miss them…Emo seems to have taken over.

Goth are dark and never date. Emo is where you really hate life, and do self harm e.g cut your wrist.

why do they have to know?

You could start by not labeling yourself as emo. You have your own personality and style, and your mom should accept that
