Are Scene Kids Identical with Emo?

Are Scene Kids Identical with Emo?

Scene kids are young people that have become prominent over the past decade. They are usually aged 14 - 21 and sometimes older or younger than that. Scene kids who are more than 20 are commonly regarded as scenesters.
Scene kids are most often mistaken as emo kids because there are a lot of similarities between the 2, but there are also many differences. When emo music first became a trend in the 80s and 90s, teenagers would go to these emo concerts.
Today, emo music is still famous, and because scene kids often go to ‘hardcore’ shows, they are seen interacting with emo kids. Thinking that they belong to emo, the two groups become friendly with each other. That is why emo hair is popular with scene kids, and band t-shirts become popular with emos. The emo term is often abused to the extent that many people categorize emo and scene as one group.Scene kids love Hello Kitty, dinosaurs, little kiddy things, and bright colors. Most of them are nice people, but they feel offended if you call them emo. Some scene kids also do not want to be called scene and they prefer no label at all. Some scene kids give the impression that they are better than others, but that depends on the person, not majority.
Most often, you can see them with their iPod, computer and cell phone. A lot of people do not like scene kids because they got the impression that scene kids are copy-cats and they all look the same, but they are not.
