A Juggalette- ICP fans, not always bad kids
If your child dresses up like this and it's not Halloween, you might check to see if they are in the Insane Clown Posse fan club. Few of the kids who do this are doing much more than just making a statement.Remember Beatle haircuts and Elvis side-burns and how they freaked out our parents? Or how about the Marlon Brando greased up hair with a cigarette hanging out of the corner of your mouth? Of course that is all mild by comparison to today's trends.
Look beyond the obvious in assessing a child's involvement in possibly destructive activities whether being a Juggalo or a Crip or Blood. More than just outward appearance will manifest itself if they are in a dangerous situation. Parents just have to know what to watch for and what various signs might mean. Seek help to get you through questions.

You're out of touch with reality with that kind of comment. Back in MY day we judged people for what acts they did and the kindest they bestowed upon others. Not how they looked, dressed or understood the world.
May your wisdom be your own fortune.
Lets see if you leave a "definant" comment like this posted and not remove it like Aixea's.
Good night.
just because we act and dress different doesnt mean that we are bad people it doesnt mean we are deviant.We juggalos are just looking for family,a common bonding between people.Dont judge yet ye be judged
look, you make it sound kind of like you think juggalos are bad and that parents should "watch out for the signs". Look, parents, if your kid dresses like the picture above, just don't care. TRUST THEM! Tell them to be themselves. Tell them not to get the misconception that just because ICP themselves do some things that aren't good like drinking alcohol and smoking weed (which I for one have nothing against as long as you are of age) doesnt mean that your kid can. now i dont really have anything against drinking alcohol or necessarily think it is bad, what i meant is is if your kids underage, tell them that doing that probably isnt the best decision. dont tell them what to do or they'll just do it. talk to them. inform them. just don't stop having a conversation with them every day that is NOT arguing. do not penalize your kid for being a juggalo or juggalette. it's damaging to their confidence and their pyschological and emotional health; kids crave acceptance from their parents. if you don't accept them, and tell them how horrible ICP is you will run them away from you. it's not a good thing to do! just inform, talk, and trust. your kid will love you more and really listen if you really just talk to them- if you really just listen--don't always be the only one talking. and just tell them to be careful, and not by any means, claim that to be a juggalo or juggalette you must be jumped in or that it is a gang. and no, I wont lie, do juggalos do gang related things sometimes? yes. in a way. but the only real gang related activity is revenge. if someone hurts your kid in any way shape or form, whether by words or by any physical means, they will have back up by their juggalo friends, which basically means that they have someone there and they probably will all jump on that person.
