I agree with you. Most of those don't make you Goth, they make you a teenager. I'm twenty-three and I consider myself goth because of the lifestyle, the arts and the beauty of the supernatural. I'm not a devil-worshipper.

Things like this are just meant to scare people. Talk to your child and find out why they are goth, so to speak. Are they doing it to get your attention? Are they doing it because it's cool? Are they doing it because it just happens to be naturally who they are?

There's nothing satanic about being goth. While, yes, some people who are goth are probably satanic, not everyone is.
