She's your mom. She did it because she loves you! Frankly, it's her house, her rules.

But remember, she did it because of LOVE!!!

I will admit, that is a pretty mean thing to do. But she does have the right to do it.

My mom totally changed my room on my once (sold my furniture and re-painted while I was away). She also regularly snooped through all of my things. I hated it... I still think it was a pretty mean thing for her to do..... but I gotta admit that when I have teens I may well snoop intyo their room as well. It is her home and she does have the right change any room she wants.

She is probably worried about you. Most moms worry about kids who wear alot of goth clothes. She may think you are into drugs, or at risk for becoming depressed or suicidal. Maybe with the blades she was afraid you were cutting yourself. Talk to her, and try to reach a compromise. Also think, have you given her any reason to worry?

Offer to add color to your wardrobe anytime you are out with family, if you can wear what you wish to school. Keep the room blue (that's not so bad), but maybe ask if you can do anything to earn the scarey movies back. I'm guessing you have no hope of getting demon posters or blades back. Especially if your mom is religious she may worry about you leaving her faith. Try to talk to her, if you have been distant from her recently this may be why she is worrying. Try having a calm chat with her and see why she is really worried, then address those feelings of hers and see is you two can compromise to give you some freedom but set her mind at ease as well.

I understand you being peeved. She should have at least talked to you and given reasons first. Sure, you would still be mad at her but maybe you wouldn't feel as violated by it. However, try to think also that she is scared for you and can get rid of things she wants to in her home. Especially is she helped buy them in the first place.

Tell her it was none of her business to change your room, it may be her house, but its yours to!, just save up alllll your money, and when she is gone on holiday os somethin' buy all the things you want (that she took away) and put 'em all back,and shout at her after, and say HAHA!

Did your mom ask you before to remove or keep all those things ? Now she did it without your approval because you didn't do something about. Don't conclude first and if not you can ask you mom why did she do that removing all your stuffs. There's no harm in asking as long as you ask her properly for her purpose. I guess your mom does'nt like that motiff in your room. Anyways, you can lessen it instead of removing it all so that your mom won't get mad at you that much.

Your Mum obviously had a reason for doing this, talk to her. She loves you and is probably worried about something. You probably don't feel much for her right now but talk, only way you're both going to understand each other.

She has got the right, I'm afraid, I know because I was in your position. I managed to forgive her for everything except nos. 4 and 5. Have to say though, your posting this on the internet makes it sound to me like you just want to show off to everyone how emo you are. Poser...

there have been quite a few times that i've asked my son to pick stuff up and clean his room. not b/c i'm a neat freak but b/c he's a pig. really. the dirt was unbelievable. after repeatedly asking and it wasn't done, i did it myself. lots of stuff got pitched or packed or moved. that's the price one pays when they don't do as they're asked.it's my house. i tried giving him his personal space but he took advantage of it. so if your mom has tried to get you to do it yourself and you didn't, you know why it happened.

Do you pay rent? do you pay for your keep? do you contribute towards any household expenses? if the answer to these is no then your Mum has the right, but I guess that she has asked you time and again to 'do something about that messy room' yeh?? and did you keep this room clean and tidy???

She doesn't have that right just because she's your mother. It's your room and you made your room that way because your comfortable with it. I watch almost nothing but scary movies, I have pics of rappers with no shirts on and a endless closet of clothes that she would think is not right for a girl whose 17, but that's who I am and she must respect. Tell your mother that your not happy and that she's not accepting who you are and come up with something you both can agree upon. No one can change your personality or character

She doesn't want you to be Emo. I think it's crap, but she wants to protect you. Sit down with her and calmly tell her how you feel. If you confront the issue in an adult-like manner, she will be more receptive and will treat you like a man!
