Re: Is Your Child a Godless Goth?
O_o This is exactly why I think some people need to step outside of their church for a few minutes and realize that stereotypes are exactly what hide the truth.
Most of those signs aren't signs of a goth kid--they're signs of any given teenager. You were all teenagers once. Kids these days experiment, and if you don't want that happening, by all means, try to stop it. It probably won't work but in the end you'll probably feel better about yourself because you tried.
I can't speak for all teenagers because frankly, I don't want to (Some of them really should just drop off the side of the earth), however, it's rather frustrating to be looped into a stereotype when you only share one or two of those "warning signs" up on that list.
This is exactly what makes me lose my faith in Christianity, and you know, it's kind of upsetting--because I so badly want to believe. However, the more people that I see making ridiculous claims, the less I want to believe that God would support this.
