Vulneración del principio de corresponsabilidad parental por falta de control de las pensiones alimenticias.

Abstract

In Ecuador, the rights and obligations that parents have with respect to their children have been established, prioritizing the care, welfare and integral development of the minor. This paper will address the responsibility that both parents should have equally, also mentioning the forms of direct violation of the rights of the father, including setting him as the only one responsible for the maintenance in cases of separation or divorce, leaving the mother as the sole distributor of the child's income. This research proposes to modify the current Table of Alimony Pensions, establishing adequate values for cases in which the mother has sufficient monetary capacity to help economically in the care of the home and her children. This work contains the meaning and importance of the principle of parental co-responsibility, the multiple gender roles that over the years have been imposed on men and women with respect to the functioning of their families, the way in which it is regulated in our country and a comparative analysis with foreign legislation. It also analyzes the legal bodies where parental co-responsibility is mentioned, its characteristics and its inconsistency and lack of application in practice.
