1Emo or Psychological
Written by Peter Nguyen
2What 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. -
3Why 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. -
4Why 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.
5Why 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.
6- 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
7What 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.
8What 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.
9Is 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.
