Why kids are pressured into gangs.

The website I read today was about gangs and how kids might want to get involved with them. In this website I learned the reasins why teens are pressured into gangs. One reason that they can get pressured to join a gang is that they might be under stress, like they might be having too much work at school or just be stressed out. Another reason is that they might have a low sense of self-esteen by not being showed any form of belonging and if get put down alot then they think that they aren't worth anything or useless. One last reason is that they might be peer presured by their friends,they could be told that its cool to be in it or that they will feel wanted in their. Well these are some reasons why kids might be pressured into gangs.

My football team.

As part of Team 3,I am excited to be blogging this year on the topic of co-existence. I am writing about my football team here at the high school. I play for the freshmen football team. Our team is of about 50 to 60 people. We practice from 3.30 to about 6 in the afternoon. We do our warm ups like stretches ladders and gassers (gassers are when u run from one side of the field to the other and back). We have days when we do offense and defense which we practice. We do these things to succeed because we need every time to do their part and not slack off because we need every one to do good. Also to support our team we wear our team jerseys to school the day of our game or a day before our game. Well this is a little about my football team.
