I am a public school teacher and I must say that emo/goth kids irritate me the most. What are they so ridiculously "sad" about? Hot Topic selection? Boo hoo

::Laughing:: Here, here. I insist you watch he wonderful episode of South Park called "Ungroundable." It's a complete parody of the Goth and Vamp kids, with a wonderful song "Burning Down Hot Topic" (during which the kids actually take flames and burn down the store). I insisted my vamp-fan sister watch it to see how silly and ridiculous it all is.

let's see.... an accelerated world that is quite different from when I grew up in the 80's is a scary world to be in. Back then it was a little scary, but now you have to be at the very top of your game to have a chance. Kids are not even sure they are average. Most of them think they are losers and below average. ever listen to the news??? Kids do. If I was 14 again, I'd want to kill myself. But the biggest problem is people like you who only b**** about not understanding, and never try to see why they are this way. My ex wife never understood that shit either.

I am a hair dresser and every time a kid with one of those stupid emo haircuts comes in I run to the back to get out of it. So dumb.

It's a facade, I agree, WTF do they have to be so sad about. Their challenges will come in their adult life, and then they won't have time to put on airs. Then again, every generation rebels in their own way, how else would you explain disco, bell bottoms, afros, etc..

It is the expression of teen nihilism that we all went through. In the 50s it was the greasers. The 60s, hippies. 70s, back to nature people. 80's punk/goth, 90s grunge/goth, etc... It's just a bunch of dumbass kids trying to figure out their place in the world. Some grow out of quick, some don't. Hell I'm in my mid 30s and still a nihilist, but I have sense enough to not dress like I live in a goddamn graveyard.

OP: Thank you to everyone who feels my pain! The kids I teach are in 6th grade so I truly fear their "depressions" in about 4 years!I absolutely help each kid as much as I can, but I must say the goth kids make me puke inside my head! Wait until they know true sadness, boo hoo.

The emo kids in high school now liked to be called Scene... I know my daughter will only go ou with these types of guys. She says most of the girls like them now. Mainly becasue they have feelingsand are not so fake like the stupid jocks. My daughter also said that she is attracted to these guys cause they have feelings not like her cold dad. But beleive me it gets really old when the boys are always crying and making my daughtr cry. The boys usually have problems with their fathers I noticed. Scared of their verbally abusive dads and hate their moms for not showing love to them as they grew up. I have been around these boys for the last 4 years and I'm tired of them always taking my daughter and my tight pants and tops home with them. And stealing my eyeliner.... Look at Adam on American Idol.... he is Scene...

tattoos and piercings are a form of art work. Not everyone who gets them have low self esteem or crave attention. It's nice to walk by a mirror with your shirt off or something and stop and look at that tattoo on your arm and go damn, I look bad ass. ~PwnMan~
Remove this stupid comment

yeah. i'm sure everyone will think your tattoos are bad ass when you're 40, 50, and 60. lol. its adolescent
Remove this stupid comment

I am 40 and have had my ink for over 20 years. Still getting genuine compliments from those rare folks who have enough intelligence to realize it is truly art, tattoos have nothing to do with this secret, morons!

I am no genius, but I think they may be depressed that they have no reason to be depressed. That or the fact that they cannot be part of the cool crowd!

Goth chicks are hot. Emo chicks should stop being emo and go goth or actually kill themselves. Emo guys should just kill themselves. goth guys are cool. ~PwnMan~

They look and act really stupid, this is America's future.

excessive tattoos and piercings are for people who have low self-esteem. they need to get the attention that they didn't get from mommy and daddy when they were growing up. show some self-respect and quit mutilating your body, ya dumbasses!

They're just lost kids looking for something they never felt they got from home...attention, acceptance

I am a NYC teacher and I find the goth kids to hang out in hetero groups, they go out together and they usually are the better students in my class. If my kids gets A's I have no problem letting them dress however they want. I want to reward their scholastic success with the freedom to express themselves....
