Wot the family has to say.... :(
I plan on getting a mohawk this suMMer, my dad is lyke "go for it!" *thumbs up* he dont care cuz he used to have liberty spikes, so he is kinda proud of me to foLLow his tracks (thanks dad :D) he also is fine with me geTTing my lip pierced *another YA!!* but there is a problem, my grandfather, i dont care wot he has to say, but he's family. He said he would disown me, got into arguments with my dad, my aunt is on his side (we used to be close) and their all ganging up on me! wot have i done?! i get good grade, and follow the rules, just coz i want to be ME and not them they get mad? so any advise as to ease the shock and dissmay of my Decision ? i told them it would be cooL, and i would look fine with it, nothing TOO drastic, but all they can say is I will be a Carney or a freak! My dad tried everthing and now it is up to me, so how do i break it to them?

As I grew up I cared less and less to what other people thought of my appearance. I wasn't trying to do anything special other than be myself. Show the world who I was and that. Yes, there have been people who thought that I was just trying to strive for attention, but so what? Yes, even been called freaky and obscure to the public (I went to a Lutheran school. I know the deals). But my family has always understood that being yourself is what is important. Some ideas they weren't thrilled with, like me getting a tattoo at the age of 16 or getting my lip pierced after that incident. But they knew it wasn't something that was going to change me. At least they hoped not anyway. Some of my family doesn't fully like the ideas of what I've done to myself in the idea of looking how I want, but they know I'm still me.
So my best advice is to not worry about it and do what you feel is right. Cause if they're the reason that's holding you back and you end up finding that it's not your thing, you at least made the adult decision to say "I tried it out. Wasn't for me." Besides. It's just hair after all. It'll grow back. And as for the piercing, I'm always one to say just wait til your 18 so they can't say you don't have an adult sense of choice. But that's just me. You're free to do what you feel is right. Cheers!

in my opinion, its doubtfull they will follow through with their threats.. my father said the same thing to me and told me he would kick me out if i got a mohawk.. but when i did he ended up not talking to me for 3 days and that was it.. he picked on me for a long time about it but that was his way of accepting it and now he shaves my head for me! haha its made him alot more open minded twords people looking the way they want to look. hopefully your family will turn out the same!!

my mum is exactly the same
she keeps saying if i get my hair cut into a mohawk she'll be dissapointed in me and all that
but i duno why
i got all A-Cs in my GCSEs and im doing well enough.
she didnt like the fact i wanted to be a tattoo artist but i just stuck with it and she gave in.
so im just gona go cut my hair anyway.
in the end its your choice really and like people said it doesnt change who you are=]
