I am Costa Rican, and as a third world country, we do have a lot of social problems. There are tons of places with heartbreaking stories and situations, but non like La Carpio, and most of us cannot dare to even get in there. <br /><br />However, 99% of the people that live there are immigrants from Nicaragua, some of those children were born here, but a lot were not, therefore, their families do not qualify for social help (like it happens for immigrants all over the world), although they do for free healthcare. We have a county with no army, free education for all kids (not only Costa Rican) and over a million people from other countries living here (legally or illegally). We do our best, but it gets out of our hands when our people struggle with poverty. It's reassuring knowing the authorities take care of children, even immigrants, even in such a dangerous place like La Carpio, when their parents can.<br /><br />PS. "Vamos chica" is not a "tico" expression, we do love soccer and our expression is "pura vida" ;o)Giannina Estevanovichnoreply@blogger.com
