[QUOTE="goldenguru, post: 97761, member: 1545"] When my daughter was in her darkest period - her music was very dark. She has explained that listening to it gave a voice to her frustrations. She would often write out the lyrics in her journal. She has said it helped her to realize that she was not the only person dealing with such tumultuous feelings. So for her - it was therapeutic in a weird sort of way. As a Christian person I had a huge issue with her music. But, I tried to listen to it with her occasionally to open dialog. It really did start some good conversations. Thankfully, she has moved out of this phase - just as she moved out of the 'dark period' of her life. I personally would not forbid the music. Boundaries - yes - forbid it? No way. [/QUOTE]
