Item El abandono del adulto mayor y el derecho de alimentos congruos en la Parroquia Juan Montalvo Cantón Latacunga(Universidad Técnica de Ambato, Facultad de Jurisprudencia y Ciencias Sociales, Carrera de Derecho, 2019-09) Bedoya Vargas, Evelyn Paola; Tipantasig Cando, Jaime TarquinoThe present investigation has like subject: "The abandonment of the Greater Adult and the right of congruos foods in the parish Juan Montalvo of Cantón Latacunga", the same that is the point of departure of the present work. The abandonment is the helplessness of those people who, for some reason, are forced to protect. It is evident that in our society there is a high percentage of older adults who are in a situation of abandonment, since when they are considered as a burden by their relatives they are abandoned, some are in asylums while others in the streets asking for alms and exposed to many types of abuse and dangers including death. This leads to the violation of their fundamental rights established in the Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador. Because of the foregoing, this work was carried out with the purpose of publicizing the obligation that exists to give the respective alimony pension to the elderly, since due to their age they are unable to work and this makes them economically dependent on their families. The doctrine states that the food law requires that everyone enjoy everything for their subsistence, this means, an adequate standard of living in food, nutrition, health, education, clothing, and housing. With the right to an adequate standard of living older adults will be able to enjoy and live with dignity the last stage of their life, guaranteeing their physical integrity through their rights. The right to food congruos are those that enable the fed to subsist modestly in a manner corresponding to their social position, this provision of food is intended to provide a better quality of life to the abandoned older adult. It is a constitutional right to guarantee a dignified life for the elderly.
