Abstract

Este documento examina la relación que existe entre la falta de cumplimiento del pago de cuota alimentaria y la pobreza monetaria de niñas, niños y adolescentes en la Argentina. El Artículo 658 del Código Civil y Comercial de la Nación establece como regla general que “ambos progenitores tienen la obligación y el derecho de criar a sus hijos, alimentarlos y educarlos conforme a su condición y fortuna, aunque el cuidado personal esté a cargo de uno de ellos.” Si bien no existe una estimación única y precisa del incumplimiento, las cifras que circulan dan cuenta de un porcentaje elevado de niñas y niños que ven vulnerado este derecho. Con datos de la Encuesta Nacional de Gastos de los Hogares 2017/18, el estudio muestra que 3 de cada 4 niñas y niños que deberían percibir la cuota no la percibe y que la obligación de pago no cumplida tiene una correlación significativa con la pobreza infantil monetaria. El estudio también avanza en la identificación de los grupos de niños y madres más perjudicados por el incumplimiento de la cuota.
