[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 196174, member: 84"] Oh, Heather..........I most certainly do!!! :rofl: Like I've told you I was tolerant with Nichole's Emo/Goth stage. Even shopped with her at Hot topic. But I also had limits she wasn't allowed to cross. Nothing trampy. No unapproved peircings or tattoos. And no vampire teeth! Just say no. I promise she'll get over it. Such a hard time to go thru. Nichole also wanted to fade into the woodwork, yet her very look made it impossible. (not as bad as most though) I personally think it tells of the very war going on inside of them. Their [B]fear of rejection[/B] vs there need for [B]look at me I exist[/B]. The good thing is that the vast majority outgrow it. Those who's parents are wise enough not to turn into teen rebellion trend, I've noticed, to have their kids outgrow it a little faster. Like I told Nichole, "Honey you don't really want your grandkids to see you sporting vampire teeth and a tongue piercing, now do you? They'd never let you live it down" ;) I just thank my lucky stars Nichole has passed thru that stage and is more into being a girlie girl than she was in her whole life. Her wardrobe is bursting with color and ruffles. :D Hugs [/QUOTE]
