Kid = child, teenager, young adult. Or a young goat.
Emo = emotive hardcore.
Emotive hardcore = genre of music.
Emo Kid = listens to emotive hardcore, makes themselves stand out by dressing a certain way, acting a certain way etc.
Just another high school stereotype, like prep, gangster, goth, jock, etc.

Walking down the hallways of a typical American public high school, you'll see a variety of stereotypically-dressed kids - some wear Hollister and Abercrombie, some wear clothes from Hot Topic. An emo kid just gets made fun of more since they're a minority. WHO BLOODY CARES. There are no specific guidelines anybody has to follow to be in a stereotypical group, chances are somebody'll put you in the group immediately anyway! And once you're in, you're WAY in. Your best bet is to be your own person, then they can't label you.

Root: Emo - Short for Emotional (Emotional Rock, Emotional Punk, Emotion Core)
Kid - not quite a child, not yet an adult
A member of a once-sub-culture born after the death of punk and the rise of power-pop - which has become the latest pop culture. Its identity and entity exist in the ideas that no one understands the emo kid quite like "this" music singer does. Buys effeminate clothing at Hot Topic, sometimes salvation army lends a hand, or takes hand-me-downs.
Proof of these "emo kids" being the current pop culture exist in the numbers. Hot Topic sells more merchandise per square foot than Walmart (The retail store for 90% of the other American cultures combined).
Despite numbers and despite proof, these subjects consider themselves unique, misunderstood, and unidentifiable.
Emo kids rely on their parents to feed, clothe, and shelter them in most cases, yet resent any advice or love broadcast from them (which, sadly, such love is usually the cure for this ailment). Although currently large in numbers and have a stable habitat on myspace.com, the emo kids will become a quickly dying breed, simply because brooding, listening to music, depression, and angst do not make for self-sustainence nor proper job skills.

The emo kid at the mall is waiting for his mom to pick him up. He just stopped by Hot Topic to return his studded gloves and chick pants. He will blog about this on myspace when he gets home.

a person that listens to very catchy depressing music about how they want things to change in their life but don't do anything about it except feeling really bad for themselves and thinking sadness is emotion. Also, most wear cloths that are seen to be "origional" or somethin.. not like anyone else wears tha sh|t or anything...
if you really want something good to happen your life, go find it..
if you have to live life you might as well have some fun..

1)Counter-pop culture teenagers that seem depressed. They reject the mainstream pop culture in order to resist conformity, but instead become conformists of the Emo Culture in the end. They listen to depressing music with sometimes good lyrics, but that are often performed by people that have no talent in singing and playing instruments. The only way to be truly free of conformity is to live in a cave and reject anything from society. Not many are willing.
2)The Typical Emo Kid is extremely skinny lacking in muscle tone of any kind. They are very pale and often look really unhealthy, because they haven't eaten or seen the sun in a long time. They reject caring about health and focus on depressing music. Emo kids come complete with black medium long hair and women's jeans(Especially Guys). They usually style their hair by parting there too long bangs over half their face. Emo Kids often shop at thrift shops and sometimes Hot Topic. Chattanooga, TN is the Emo Capital of the World.
Emo is also considered by some as Goth's retarded gay niece.

Cheer up Emo Kid
Goth:Conformist bitch
Emo Kid: No you're a conformist bitch
Emo Quotes: My heart bleeds from the razor blade you sliced me with when you dumped my lazy ass. / Stab my eyes out with the bullets for my valentine. AHH Life is so dark

People who think the film "Donnie Darko" is philosophical genius. Many also believe Blink 182 to be the best band ever 'cause their "lyrics" mean something... They are posers, wanabees and do not understand what a good lyric is. They mirror everyone around them and have no sense of who they truly are.
Emo Kid: Hey man wanna check out my vintage clothes?
Fellow Emo Kid: Yeh man. Where did you buy them?
Emo Kid: Hot Topic.
