There are many kinds of gangs, but whatever kind you community is dealing with, gangs spell trouble. They cause fear, destroy property, threaten or hurt peaceable residents, and drive out businesses.
Parents can do a lot to prevent gang problems or top reduce gag problems already in place.
Sharpen your skills as a parent and use them. Join with others to make or keep your neighborhood gang free. Gangs leave signs of their presence. The odds are that the better you meet these needs, the less need you children will see for gangs. Talk with listen to your child.
