prejudice people annoy me

[mmm...pizza]

Im not her father, Im her mother...Im not prejudice, learn to read, I said it annoys me, i believe all and everything has good and bad sides...my daughter does not smoke weed and has actually come home when friends have gone off to do so[fuck Im proud]...i also have 5 kids that are all different and one is a jock so i don't have anything against them and are as proud of all my kids. My daughter is not goth, she just likes metal and band t'shirts that are usually sold in black...Im just sick of fucktards putting down kids/teens because of thier appearance...my daughter is a strong happy teen...some other kids that I know are really struggling[one boy actually attempted to hang himself he was so distraught, not one of mine mind you], my heart goes out to kids like this and i just wanna rap 'em up in cotton wool and protect them all...of course i know i can't, this sorta crap has gone on since forever ago and i expect it will always happen...but god it eats me up

If i dress like a chav people will think i'm a chav, if i dress like a goth people will think i'm a goth. Sometimes people are afraid of what's different. There definately is a strong dislike for emos, sad but true. If your daughter changed to fit in the norm would all insults stop? Probably not. Insults and prejudice remain in our world, annoyingly.

im an emo hater. i wont lie. i think all emo kids should be shot with no questions asked. quit wearing girls pants and get your god damn hair out of your eyes. and quit wearing eye liner. yeah emos suck the big one. and their music sucks too.

goths on the other hand....i think they're kind of asking for the attention, negative or not, i think thats the whole point of dressing like that.

I'm sorry, and I hate to be a cunt. But I've been there, when I was 13-15. I've grown up a lot, but I still kept my style; you know what I'm saying?

I dressed like that, straight up for attention. I was a little goth/punk bitch and I loved to shock. You don't "just like band tshirts and metal"..there's more to it. I'm sorry again, I'm not trying to insult you or your daughter but I think it's incredibly immature. As an adult you need to give off a professional appearence most of the time, or people don't take you seriously. I'm not saying wear suits and heals but atleast put on a pair of new jeans with your torn up t-shirt.

I don't dress "preppy" or what ever. I wear what I feel like wearing and what looks good on me, but I've stopped wearing my lime green tutu and lip ring. I've stopped caking on the eyeliner and black eye shadow and I've stopped only listening to certian "goth/punk" bands. I've opened myself up to new styles and new genres of music and I think a lot of the goth/punk/emo kids need to do that.

Even as I got older, I still had pink hair BUT I dressed neatly and nicely so it wasn't a huge deal..more like "hey, does she have pink hair?" not "HAHA LOOK AT THAT STUPID PUNK" which I got as a younger teen. You CAN keep your individuality and still slide under the radar.

I hopefully don't sound like a c u next tuesday and I do feel bad for your daughter, and other kids, because I understand that they're being treated differently by being different but if it bothers them SO much, why don't they tone down a bit?

It's human nature to fear what you don't understand.

people do take me seriously...you are right about the dress for attention bit, she used to blacken her eyes and go all out, but she just dresses in a long plain black skirt, band t-shirt and keeps her hair long and straight now. As for me I dress in what I like and don't care what people think...my friends are mixed. I make alot of friends because I'm one of these people that never shuts up. I like to help people and don't mind giving my kids and thier friends a day out...i own a really big people mover The Baker Boys [skaters such as Dustin dollin come over from America] and we took a massive group of boys down to see them, because it was at least a 2 hour drive where they were performing[though sadly dustin dollin was blind and had to be sobered why a skatepark packed with boys/teens waited eagerly[though i blame the sponsors for not looking after thier boys properly. One of them actually smashed into my son who's 8, though my boy was actually rapped:s.

Though at first when I was at the football club and the schools...people acted a little weird, but soon realised i was just like them.

I went to the beach a few weeks back and these guys called me a freak but soon shut up once I emerged in my bikini and my bloke smiles.

Now my bloke is a business man that wears suits everyday, he manages some-one elses company at the moment but we are hoping to soon have enough money to start up our own factory and yard soon. I am invited to all the business dinners and get along with every-one just fine.

As for the person that is an emo Hater...Im a Hater of Emo haters...i find you weak and pathetic, especially when you are picking on some-one that has nothing at all to do with your life, usually some-one younger and weaker. So what that they wear tight jeans and wear make-up...they aren't making you wear it are they...how can being mean to some-one for no apparent reason be fun, to me its mean and cruel, like the jock that ran over the emo in America because he didnt like the way he looked. Now personally I don't think it was the emo that had the problem...I think that sort of behavior to be sick and any-one the does such an act should be imprisoned as they would if they ran over a none emo!!! This sorta stuff really breaks my heart.

I was a goth throughout middle school and high school. I was treated like shit for it too. I gave it up after I got sent away however. But I still love my hard music, my peircings, my tattoos and black. And I always will. heres my old pics haha

[mmm...pizza]

[rebgirl420]

Thanks hun, I guess ill always be a rocker girl at heart...and the only reason im not now is b/c no on would hire me with all the peircings. Said it was too intimidating. Besides, no one wants to hire a goth teacher..
