Okay, I am out of the lingo groups...what the heck does emo mean?

I would like a really good definition of this one! I hear kids say it and think what are they talking about?

    short for emotional. It is a newish fad started by record companies to sell more albums. Some emo bands are: Fall Out Boy and Panic At the Disco.Oh and some emo people practice cutting themselves cause they are super depress. It is like punks but without the purpose.

    For the most part I agree with Rick but be caustious an on the safe side to do an inquiry for the degree of seriousness

    that may be implicated. If you believe a child is hurting or may about to be hurt then you need adult back up and support first as you try to deal with it. Two or more is better than one; usually starting with the parent ...unless there is a real good reason not to. Then call 911 if needed.

    It was a good question.

    Have a wonderful day,
