The social grouping known as the family, has been approached from diverse approaches, such as the psychological, sociological and even from biology. The following work looks at this social grouping from the perspective of citizen security. The family has fundamental aspects to understand the development and evolution of violence. Family education has not been given the importance it really has and much less society has been able to visualize the real adversary of these times that generates violence. That is why in countries with little academic and intellectual development, it has been able to contain it.
