Mom and Dad disapprove of who I am....
Im 13/f,and my parents disapprove of who I am.
I'm a HUGE lover of music,it's my life.
I LOVE bands/artist like :Escape the Fate,Falling in Reverse,D.R.U.G.S.,Black Veil Brides,Get Scared,My chemical romance,Asking alexandria,Bring me the horizon,Vampire's Everywhere,and bands of the metal,screamo,rock,and alternative music.
I love "dark things".My favorite color is black.
I'm always learning about cults,love vampire's,and things like that.
But,my parents disapprove of my "emo" lifestyle.
They say it's "demonic".
But that's just who I am.
They've tried taking that music away from me,and "making me normal".
I've told them this is who I am,but they don't wanna hear it.
Help!

I am also thirteen and i think that you just need to show your parents that your fine yu just like dark stuff.
So do something they want you to do to show them your fine but you prefer your own style. Dress different listen to other songs then show them that your upset with it and that you want your old life style. TALK TO THEM!

As long as you aren't out to harm yourself or anyone else, Then being who you are is perfectly fine.
Just to point in out there, Don't use the word "emo" emo refers to someone who is emotional and "emo" people tend to like to harm themselves for attention. That is not a cool way to be at all and referring to yourself as being emo is misleading.

You are who you are, only you could change that with any degree of lasting success. Your parents are in a state of panic because yoiu appear to be 'off the normal' range for youngsters of your age. They worry that as they perceive your musical tastes as bizarre and way-out, so will other people in the future, who might not employ you or whatever. This has happened since time began; the previous generation always thinks the following one is the worst behaved, oddest, least-likely-to-succeed-at-anything bunch of no-hopers ever. Even the Romans thought like this!
Your parents are thinking long-term, "How will you ever get a job with tastes like this?"
You, on the other hand, are 13; hard as it maybe to accept, your tastes may well change next week to classical music! Just as clothes, cars, food, holidays and all human life follow fashion so does music. Also, you're 13, when things change rapidly anyway. Many teenagers have piercings, dreadlocks, tattoos and other stuff when young but most lose interest in time, especially when looking for work. Employers tend to shy away from such frightening oddities as the above-mentioned.
So I'd tell your parents to give you time to be young, things will chagne as you get older and your tastes change. Ask them what fashion trends they followed as teenagers!
Hope this helps, let me know how you get on?
Best wishes x.

It's your life, do what you want with it. If you want to be doing that stuff go right ahead. If emo meaning you cut your self and stuff then they should be upset. They can't approve of you or dissaprove of you, they have to love you. There's just no suck thing as normal. So really try and tell them by maybe scheduling a "meeting" or something maybe try telling them why. Good luck I hope everything turns your way for the best <3
