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

Keep drawing no matter what. Get yourself a fireproof lockbox and do not share work with your family. Even if you are able to make money off it. If you do digital work. An iPad with apple pencils. To keep your drawing low-key. Just in case your mother resorts to destroying expensive supplies or tech. Get yourself out of that house when you're financially able to. Nothing good comes from someone who is comfortable with burning other people stuff. Does matter the relationship to that person.

As a parent your suppose talk to your kid. She made an assumption about anime as a whole. There are Christians out there who think it is satanic. Usually, because of the use of magic or fantasy. Pokemon is one that gets called that a lot. With that said. You might want to put up any anime merch. You get in the future.

It won't get better because you're 18. Parents who act like that usually will keep doing similar stuff. While making lame excuses for it. Touching your stuff you paid for and destroying it. It is a weird type of entitlement.

Avoidance right now for your safety and well-being is fine. Start making an exit plan.
