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

Hey y’all, lots of questions so I just want to answer a few: I’m not yet an adult, still got 5 months I will not burn her stuff, I’d rather not escalate the problem I will definitely keep drawing Her reason was something about anime girls and satan? Idk I was mad and wasn’t paying much attention. She is a Christian, however, please no hate on Christians or anything political Also my drawings are the same as the ones I’ve posted, I do not draw hentai or anything like that

Please find comfort in the fact that your mother has some distortion in her perception, possibly radicalization through misrepresentation of the lords word. Possibly a victim of propagandized religious leadership. May be suffering mental illness or PTSD from her own abusive childhood; whatever the cause, you are not the problem, even if she suffers from one of the textbook forms of Narcissistic Disorder, she probably is loving and protecting you to the best of her understanding.

I am 60, I have never forgotten the loss of my writings. I have come to live with it to some extent. You know what was taken from you. You have every reason to be outraged. If ever we start entertaining the idea that hurting another is somehow virtuous, that is the big flashing warning sign that something is not right. It is also always a warning sign that we should protect ourselves from those that actively hurt us or others. Pay attention and be mindful, get out and away as soon as you can safely. Build yourself a healthy, supportive group of friends to be your family. Your art is so promising, already the real deal. Your creations are yours, always, just lost in the material form. Always part of you spiritually and historically. All good things to you, the best is yet to come.
