Question

Do you feel'Gangs ' of adolescents do constructive activities?

Answer 1

Explanation:

"Gangs" get a bad press. The overused noun is now synonymous with the evils of youth culture and its incumbent violence, drugs, guns and sexual misconduct. There is a lot of rooftop shouting and table banging about the breakdown of teenage society: poor education, dysfunctional families, no respect for the older generations. "Wasn't like that when I was young." This dim view is, at best, misguided. At worst, clouded in denial and cushioned in the fiction of the non-existent "good old days". Societies throughout history have each had their share of unlawful, out-of-control youth

We hear a lot about an epidemic rise in youth crime. The truth is, youth crime has always been a part of society. It is how society deals with it that dictates its trajectory. Much of the reported rise in youth crime is in direct relation to the huge population increase in recent decades and, crucially, in the way the media choose to report youth crime.

I put the blame for the de-meaning of the word gang squarely on the money hungry, narrative-driven media to ramp up our fear of the fiction of "gangs dominating every street corner". The issue is adrenalised in drama, documentaries and rolling news by repeatedly declaring "gang culture" as the cause of teenage societal meltdown. Gang culture is the widely accepted term used directly in connection with youth violence.

I hope this is help you..
