What does Emo mean?
  • Emo is short for emotive or emotional
    and describes an emerging social trend. However,
    Emo has two different meanings One is a style of
    music. The other is a label people use to
    describe a group. The group of teens that use the
    label say that emo is short for emotional, but
    the term originally came from the Indie music
    style called Emotive Hardcore.
  • The music It's basically punk rock, except
    the lyrics are about emotional things rather than
    being a rebel. Emo is a kind of rock music which
    describes several independent types of music with
    common similar roots.
  • The People It is a label people give
    themselves for being apathetic and emotional to
    an extreme (usually miserable), but wallowing in
    it and not wanting it to change. They tend to
    feel they are misunderstood and that life is not
    fair to them in specific. Emo boys usually wear
    tight pants (often girls). Emo girls tend to
    lean more towards late 70's to early 80's
    fashion. Both always got a dyed black hair or
    highlight and the haircuts tend to have awkward
    sharp angles and are often glossed. They also
    make up their eyes by black-colour. We can see
    sadness on their face easily.

Why do teenagers turn to Emo?
  • Today, we can see lots of teens turn to Emo.
    What is the main reasons for that? According to
    research, most of teens become Emo because of the
    familys affect or they try to control pain. They
    might turn to Emo to feel alive, to get
    attention( some people call that are fake). It
    could be a cry for help. Expressing their feeling
    by becoming Emo or by doing turn to Emo they
    could feel better. There could be another way are
    stop hurting and making everyone-especially
    themselves know that they are not invisible.
    Besides that, there are more reasons why teens
    turn to Emo but these reasons above are
    most-known.

Why do teenagers turn to Emo?
  • However, some teenagers are not real Emo. They
    just become Emo because Emos style is trendy. By
    turning to Emo, some teens could cry any where
    ,any time they could be sad even and be happy
    again suddenly at the same time. Thats what we
    call fake. Some teens think Emo culture is
    fashion, there for they turn to Emo and want
    everyone to call them Emo kid. Becoming Emo is
    not really bad but worse than that, some teens
    could do silly thing to get in Emos style.
    They might suicide by cutting themselves because
    they are depress or sad. Those teens think that
    Emo kids adore depressing.

There is a very sad situation about Hannahs
death because of being Emo. There for most of
people think there is no safe for kids to become
Emo.

Why no child is safe from the sinister cult of
emo?By TOM RAWSTORNE.
  • Hannah was a happy 13-year-old until she
    became an 'emo' - part of a sinister teenage
    craze that romanticises death. Three months later
    she hanged herself. Here, her devastated mother
    tells other parents No child is safe
  • On the night before she died, she came into
    their room, kissed her father Raymond on the
    cheek and cheerfully told him "I love you, Dad."
  • The following day Hannah's mother Heather
    went to check on her daughter and found her
    hanging by a tie from the top rail of her bunk
    bed.

From Fresh-faced to suicidal Hannah Bond pre
?emo?, left, and weeks before her death.
As for Hannah, Emo is fashion.

  • As I said, music is a very important
    part in Emo culture so it could effect Emo-kids
    who have strong emotion. Emos like guitar-based
    rock with emotional lyrics.
  • American bands such as My Chemical Romance,
    Good Charlotte and Blink 182 are particular
    favourites. Songs with emotional lyrics could
    makes Crucially, those who self-harm are more
    likely to go on to attempt suicide. While there
    is a multitude of reasons for this epidemic
    (exam-related stress and bullying to name but
    two), it is hardly surprising that the emergence
    of a sub-culture that appears to glamorise
    self-harm and even suicide is being regarded with
    alarm.
  • Inevitably, criticisms of emo culture are
    laughed off by those who consider themselves to
    be at the heart of it.
  • It's just a music thing, they say, and
    anyone who takes it further has something
    inherently wrong with them.
  • "If you listen to the lyrics, you will see
    there is nothing that promotes suicide and even
    if there was, no right-minded person would listen
    to it and think 'Now I'm going to kill myself,'
    ' a self-confessed emo wrote last week on a music
    website following the inquest into Hannah's
    death.
  • "I don't think anyone can say that there is
    a link between emo and suicide ? it's just a
    myth.
  • "Emo has become an easy target for ridicule
    like this but the bottom line is emotional does
    not mean suicide."

Those above ideas are teens who dont think
people have to cut themselves to become Emo. Emo
is not bad for them because they could find some
interest in Emos style

What happens to teens brains make them get in
Emo?
  • As you know, different teens brains work in
    different ways. So Emo-teens brain do. Some Emos
    can handle rejection well, without even the
    thought of suicide. This is because they have
    high self-esteem. However, some who has
    low-esteem might put themselves in suicide by
    cutting wrist. Why do teens do like that? For
    answer this question, we have to think about what
    makes teens think they want to be Emo. Perhaps,
    teens get depress they might think they had
    nothing to live for, so they become to Emo to get
    a new culture life. It could be teens are under
    pressure from family, studying or friendships
    which make them feel sad about. They just want to
    get everyones attention and they feel that makes
    them special. The most important thing is they
    have got strong emotion. Because of the
    developing Amygdala( the part of brain which
    control emotions, feelings) is growing fast. It
    makes them get the strong emotions and feelings
    about everything around them. It could be their
    natural essence but vice versa it could be
    something effects their brain that make them get
    the strong emotions than the others. Nowadays,
    everything could effect teens such as Internet,
    Tv or the developed society.

What happens to teens brains make them get in
Emo?
  • Somehow, some Emos might kill themselves
    by different causes. Like, some Emos are teased
    by their friends or people around them. Perhaps,
    somebody thinks Emos are so bad and hates them
    within the bad attitude about Emos. That makes
    Emo feel shameful and makes them suicide. That is
    what somebody calls Crying inside. They feel
    bad, sad or depress because someone teasing them.
    In fact, one teenager who names Sam was death by
    teasing from his friends. Hes just only 13, he
    likes Emos dressing and music, so he was teased
    by his own friends. It shows that Emos or teens
    who look like Emo but they are not dont really
    want to die to prove that they are Emos. Teasing
    from the people around them damages their brain
    makes them put themselves into suicide. Its not
    only their fault but its also someone-who likes
    teasing Emo culture, fault. By that, I hope
    everyone could understand for Emo but we also
    need to care more about them. Talking and
    listening to them could be a good method to help
    Emo-kids.

Is Emo culture a psychological development?
  • For many reasons, becoming Emo could be a
    psychological development because some teens
    brain would change after affect, especially the
    Amygdala. Getting a strong feeling is not really
    bad, not bad at all. However, having a strong
    emotions could effect your life because sometimes
    you dont really care about what would your
    family think about you if you turned to Emo.
    Thats self-fish but being Emo might make you
    happy, just so you know be what you want to be.
    Emo culture is just a group of kids who could
    adore sadness or loves. People dont have to cut
    or push themselves toward to suicide to be Emo.
    If they did something like that, theyd have
    psychological illness. As for me, people should
    respect Emo culture because thats not thing
    between Emo and suicide. Be what you think you
    would be happy at is more important.
