Answer:
I don't know if it's fair for me to write an entire essay for you
but if you would like I can list some reasons you can incorporate into an essay.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-If you are joining a gang you are most likely going to have a greater chance of being targeted, even if it seems like you would be protected.
-Most of the time when someone joins a gang a child is being separated from a parent and will face most aggression.
-This can also cause academic failure in students, from lack of education and probably a pretty bad background.
-For teens when joining a gang they will do things that aren't suited for their age (I would list things but I'm not trying to get myself reported if you know what I mean)
-You will also have a great risk of being imprisoned and facing bad consequences, and these consequences can even be having the death penalty.

I hope this is good enough, sorry I didn't give you a full essay. I think this should help with that though.
