Is this a gang?

My neice is hanging with some kids who I thought were innocent until I found out one of the boys dad and mom have been arrested previously and in prison.

I went on one kids myspace and found him with DBA all over his myspace and found pics of him with a red bandanna and messages from alot of other that have DBA in thier names and represent, and the bandanna s and flashing signs... NOT sure of it is 8th graders acting like fools or stupid little group of kids who are acting stupid... Or an actual gang group. I googled and found nothing.. Please help!

Call the local gang unit (police department). They would be able to tell you.

I have seen some kids post dumb things on their myspace just to look "cool". Check into it though. You don't want her getting involved with the wrong people at such a young age. Good luck and God bless.

Just because a kids parents are in jail/have been arrested means that their kids are bad. I have a friend whos father has been in and out of jail his whole life...YET he graduated last June, and has a FULL scholarship to any college he wants to go for being a honor student.
You REALLY need to rethink that.

As for that myspace....
There ARE kids those ages in gangs. I never heard of DBA before. It might just be a stupid group thing thats going around your area. Id still be careful thou because the color red sometimes represents for the gang 'bloodz'.

DBA could be a gang, but definitely not tied to Bloods or Crips.

Most likely small, local, or a myspace thing.

Ask your kid. It's probably just joking around but it might be a gang. It's better to be safe than sorry.

I'm in 8th grade and have friends who made a "social club" and got bandanas and stuff but I live in a really friendly neighborhood with no gangs and stuff so people know it's not a gang.

But....if you live in one of those type of neighborhoods with gangs I would DEFINITELY ask him and maybe contact the police if you get really worried.
