Such an eye-opener. I mean, this surveillance photo of emo-hero AFI just reinforces it. That couch must be dangerously filthy! It's 10 p.m.; do you know if your children are sitting on filthy couches?
Seriously, though, this is the same teen angst dressed in a different outfit. If teens are cutting themselves and contemplating suicide, it's not because of a lifestyle. It's because something bigger is going on/going wrong. Blaming it on grunge/goth/emo a disservice to youth. "Heathers" was just a movie; nobody is killing themselves for fun.
However, if your kid is buying My Chemical Romance action figures, then it's time to intervene and buy him/her a copy of the first Clash record. Just my opinion.

about halfway down, sadly no picture yet.
That was queer.
AFI isn't emo.
And My Chemical Romance just sucks emo ass.
Don't associate AFI with MCR or emo, seriously.
I agree with your comment about emos.
I just disagree with the fact that My Chemical Romance is bad. MCR has actually saved many lives :)
if teens cut their wrist, you can't call them emo. emo is just a style of clothes and make up.
I cut my wrist, and I am not emo. I am addicted to drugs and my parents dont want to see me again. I would say that's a good enough reason to cut wrist rigth?
so if you're emo it doesn't mean you cut your wrist..
I listen to my chemical romance i love them! i dont listen to afi that much but i think theyre decent. im not emo i have cut myself years ago when i was depressed. i didnt even know what emo was then. i listen to a lot of "emo" bands and ive been called that because of it. im wearin a betty boop shirt a skirt and an mcr hoody. whatz so emo bout that??? in my opinion emo is like hair metal its hot rite now but it will die off. dont blame bands for what dumbass kids do to themselves.
Why are you associating My Chemical Romance with "emo"? They're a band who have saved many lives because of their music and their messages. They are teaching their fans that it's okay to be who you are, and that suicide or self harm is NOT the answer to problems. They send us messages of hope and determination, NOT suicide and self harm.
NO THAT IS FUCKED UP MCR DOES NOT MAKE KIDS KILL THEM SELFS NO MUSIC DOES IT THEM THEY NEED HELP SO DO NOT POINT FINGERS AT THE MUSIC FOR DOING THIS
