Look up some emo websites by typing "emo" into Google. A few links are listed below. Tell your mom you want to show her something, and show her some of those that are most like what you're interested in. Try to help her see the cool side and not just the stuff that might turn her off.
Then look for the right point to tell her that you are really into that. Ask her what she was into like that when she was your age.
I'll bet you can take it from there. ---- Well if your mom is against it you might want to make syre she is in a good mood and then tell her good things about being emo and eventually tell her. Good Luck! you might not wanna tell her, because i am emo, and my mom doesn't know, because she would sure as hell make me go to counseling.
being emo is being yourself ;l
if you are emo you are highly depressed.
if your actually emo, and cut yourself, discuss it with your mom and go see psychologist. if you're just goth than its fine if u dont cut urself then just show her some good emo websites, tell her how its all about self expression, individuality, etc. and hope shes ok with it or if she isnt, well, then i have no clue wat 2 do. Parents generally don't approve of anything along the lines of 'emo' even though they encourage you to be yourself, they don't want to see there son or daughter slowly, but efficiantly, turn emo. But the first answer is so wrong, in so many ways. Not all Emo's cut themselves, most who call themselves emo, and tell people they cut themselves, are poseurs. And even if you are emo, there's nothing wrong with that. Just tell your mom the truth, and you know that old saying, "The truth can hurt." ? Well, it's not a lie. Keep that in mind.
Grow up
Ok, I am emo and just recently got a so called emo hair cut. I just showed the hairdresser a pic of an emo girl with an emo hair cut!
To be honest, you shoudn't label people. And no one should take a label. "Emos" definitely don't. Also, emo's do not tell others they are emo, because they would be considered a 'poser'.
this phrase helped me alot emo is not cutting your wrists or always being sad or wanting to kill emo is emotional emo is being yourself to tell you the truth emo is a music genre so next time when you talk about emo learn what emo is first
its the usual: look,stare,smile, and flirt.
if u dont wear the make up(unless yer aloud 2) everything else is fine(unless she actually knows what emo is ) , because your mom should except you how you are
No. Being emo is just a way too tell the world that you want to be different. Not all emo folks cut themselves.
Hmmm depression, not talking, listens to emo music, wears emo clothes, acts emo, might cut himself, looks lonely, writes suicide notes Etc.
you think you are and other people know you are.
