Spend quality time with your children
Get involved in your child's school activities.
Establish rules, set limits and be consistent, firm and fair in punishment.
Encourage good study habits.
Respect your child's feelings and attitudes and help them develop self-esteem.
Watch closely for negative influences.
Improve your own self-esteem so your children can model themselves after the most important "role model"… YOU.
Tips for Parents/Educators
Help children develop self-control.
Help children deal appropriately with problems.
Get involved in community-oriented prevention and intervention programs. Urge others to become involved. Volunteer at your child's school. Gangs are a community problem and their influence does not stop at any particular boundary.
