well...if what you describe as "emo" is true than I am on the same page as you are. I'm going to try to give advise. But I beg you think it over first. I'm not sure it will help either of us. My father abused my mother. (and me) When he would go on quote "week long business trips" he went to see a woman he not only cheated on my mother with, but is engaged to. The ironic part of that is that her ex-husband was abusive and committed suicide. Anyways, I've been what you say emo for about a year. When my parents gave me a bunch of crap about it, I would write to cool down. Listen to my ipod, and then explain to my mother my feelings. No, she didn't like it. But she now excepts me. My dad does not. But he wants nothing to do with me anyways. So...I guess you should try explain it to the closest person in your family. And whether or not they like it is up to them. You are you. They can't change it. You can. And they can't force you. Oh...and you could try showing them your writing like I did too. Just make sure u explain the details so they understand clearly. Hope I was of some help. If not...I'm sorry. I know what you're goin through. I know this is a game and I'm just some random chick, but if you ever wanna talk to someone about anything, I don't tell anyone anything half the time. And I'd be happy to just let u get it out. so...later! wink
