La suspensión temporal del régimen de visitas por la falta de pago de pensiones alimenticias y visitas parentales en la legislación ecuatoriana

Abstract

This thesis examines the relationship between child support payments and visitation rights within Ecuadorian, Spanish, and Chilean civil and family law frameworks. The methodology was developed using a qualitative approach; the research depth was also descriptive-explanatory. The study used the historical-logical, deductive-inductive, analytical-synthetic, and dogmatic-legal methods. Additionally, the comparative method was applied to the three aforementioned legal systems. The techniques employed were literature review and surveys. Moreover, the study highlights the need for reform in legal bodies related to civil, family, women, children, and adolescent matters. The reforms should include creating educational and awareness programs to support parents in understanding the importance of fulfilling their obligations to pay child support and maintain consistent contact with their children. These efforts would be supported by the technical team of the Judicial Council to ensure effective implementation, aiming to protect the rights, physical, emotional, and psychological well-being, and overall development of the child. Keywords: temporary suspension, visitation rights, non-payment, parental visits, child support.
