Long Time No Babble Dgners.

I'm not suggesting she should be abandoned to the world, but I do think that they shouldn't bail her out of every situation she gets herself into. You don't learn if consequences aren't experienced. Love and caring have to partner with discipline and responsibility to keep kids on the right track. Even then, you never really know.

oh i agree with that completely. i see so many children *damaged* by years of ... too many things to list from parents, peers, exposure to the wrong things, neglect, too much freedom, etc etc. it's so sad.

to me parenting should come naturally but i know that it doesn't always and to those that really don't know how to do it, they should get help instead of fuck up all the time! :(

Focus on education too, not just standard but what it means to be a goth. Electrically shock her if she mentions manson or VNV or anything like that. Give her positive stimulation for Joy Devision, Bauhaus, and Sisters.

Seriously though she sounds more Emo than Goth, so make fun of her for it since Emo is a negative thing. Inform her real goths would beat the shit out of her for how she's acting.

Also check into who her friends are, give them the same treatment.
