So here's the story... I have a 17 year old cousin that is almost like a little sister to me. Problem is.. the last couple of years she has really weirded out on me. She very much likes the whole emo style and has turned to liking and drawing some questionable material (for example pin-ups, bloody things, tattoos, piercings, suicide girls, etc.) I even found a photograph of her kissing another girl on one of those popular art sites. I always thought of her as a really sweet girl, with strong moral character, bubbly and happy, and now I feel like I'm losing her to the garbage of society. I sometimes want to confront her about it, but then I back off thinking it would probably want to make her rebel even more. Do you think she'll grow out of it? Is there a way I can get her to realize that her new interests are unhealthy, vulgar and immoral? I've shed a lot of tears worrying about her and being very disappointed... but I guess it's *somewhat* normal teenage stuff.
