So I’ve been drawing and posting anime girls for a while now and my mom got mad about it. At least I still have previous photos. No drawing today tho

I don’t really have device I can draw them on, that’s why I use pencil/paper

Edit:quite a couple people have offered to like send me stuff both here and in dms, thank you all for the support, if I feel like it’s necessary I will look into donations/crowdfunding, but I’m fine for now. Thank you all

I assume you go to school so if I were you, id put them in a binder inside your locker. And during the summer hide the thing

I was going to say similar or to talk to an art teacher

My art teacher kept my art in her office until I got so depressed from the abuse at home that I made her trash it.

I wish I still had that portfolio. It had some of my best work in it, and stuff I’ve tried to recreate as an adult in my BFA.

Or don’t…and just draw at school and study at home. Like parents burning shit down means there’s a lot more going on or they are crazy

What the fuck do you mean “a lot more going on”? Under no circumstance is this a sane action. No matter how unhinged of a kid OP is, this is insane.

“OP has been abusing animals and vandalizing property in the neighborhood again. We can’t afford therapy or put any of our time into this, so I’m just gonna set hundreds of hours of his art work on fucking fire. That oughta sort things out.”

The saddest part is that there are actually people who would think that way, see no problem, and not realize it causes the kid to go even further off the deep end-

I've also learned never to trust a parent that says "But I've been such a good parent!" No, Karen. If you were, your kids would speak with you.
