What attract this adolescents to join the gang? I ask myself this question and I think back to the time I was at that age group. I, myself wanted to be part of a gang. I believe we all growing up have a group or network or peers in which we belong to or call it ours. Now not all of this groups are label as "gang" because the word "gang" has a derogatory connotation derive from media. I think kids want people to belong to and stand out from. As male with our alpha egotistical mentality want to be on the top and indulge in misfits. Poverty people do get involved in activity which gets them in trouble and no one want to really help them out. I believe privileged get into similar trouble but have their wealthy well connect family help them out.
It is really good to know most of this kids do mature out and leave that lifestyle.
