How Do You Tell If Your Child Is In A Gang?

Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    If somebody is a part of the gang, the slang language used turns out to be a part of every day lingo. Even if adults know how to conduct themselves in different environments, the child may not be so mature and may use the same gangster lingo in daily conversation. However this is not a real way of finding out if your child is a part of the gang because he may have just aped the slang lingo from the movies or gangster videos.

    The tell-a-tale signs which give in are the reclusive or moody nature of children. Children can display extreme forms of behaviour wearing flashing clothes in combination like gold and black or black and blue. The attire reflects the personality of a person. If you see your child wearing rings or gold pendants in the shape of weapons, dollars or anything bizarre, you have reasons to believe that your child is a member of the bad boys club. Your child may not reveal truth about where he can be located. He will probably have two mobile phone numbers. He will not be able to maintain eye contact with you, when you confront him. He will value privacy and at times even quarrel with you for his right to privacy. Your son or daughter who is a part of the gang will not appreciate you meeting their friends. Your kid may stop talking to his or her old friends and may be uncertain meeting people whom you introduce. Further your child may have a huge amount of cash lying unexplained. Other noticeable signs include late out stay, dropping school grades, fights with neighbourhood boys, vandalism, using cuss words, alcohol abuse, taking to drugs and telling a lot of unnecessary lies to justify their deeds.
