Puerto Rican society is going through a crisis. A social deterioration is increasing. Within social problems is the economic crisis, education, crime, child abuse and violence in the country. The following essay is presented as each of the aforementioned social issues affecting the Puerto Rican society.
The crime rate in Puerto Rico has a murder rate increasing every year there are more. Thinking of many people is that the government does not provide or do anything this problem but there are many reasons why crime is on the rise every year.

Education is one of the most productive factors in a population with this number so high in the crime rate. Educating children who are growing up, to have a university degree, be professional and do not have to incur criminal acts. Our people have a very important role with the values, which must carry out very seriously, because they are missing, as they say in the popular phrase "happens to us Puerto Rico." These are hypothetical solutions but this issue of crime is an epidemic with no cure. . Reports have revealed that we are among the first murders and deaths globally.

One of the biggest problems in education in Puerto Rico is that it has the failidades or resources to address the problems of children with conditions that require special education and the few programs that are available are very slow to meet the child's which this affects them in the long term as they grow. On the other hand we have the lack of homeschooling. This is what education is the responsibility of parents and family. This education is the first that is supposed to receive.
