Answer #4

Well unfortuantely dear if you cut yourself and wear all black you fit the description but I understand what your going through and if you want people to not think your emo. Quit cutting yourself using the excuses of “oh my cat scratched me” and using them little armbands to cover it up. Go to a cousnler and get some help before you do something you will regret then your parents wont have an emo daughter they wont have one at all!!!

Answer #5

Unfortuanlty majority of the people who talk about emo and majority of the kids who call themselves emo still have no idea what the word actually means and I am almost certain that you are one of these people

Answer #6

I disagree with these I don’t think you should change what you wear because it’s a part of you..I went through this last year but I just sat down with my mum and said yes okay so I wear black and listen to heavy music…but that doesn’t mean im emo it just means I like the clothes an di like the music..it’s just soething I like..im not emo though…make her see you’re point of view..that you like the clothes..but you’re not emo and what she’s sayign is upsetting you!

Answer #7

umm dont do ani of those stuff. by the wai you just describe urself your problabli emo on teh outside but regular in the inside!

Answer #8

let your parents know that it makes you upset that they have categorized you as that, just tell them thats the style you like!

Answer #9

Change your look and behavior if it’s misleading - sounds like they’re worried about your well-being.

Answer #10

Dont do any of that… If you want to prove them wrong, wear more bright colors, do other stuff. Always be happy happy.
