Abstract:

This paper’s aim is to help to delimitate the borders of elder abuse in the family, a very complex issue. After a reference about its prevalence, we’ll raise some aspects around the elder abuse definition. Then we’ll talk about the definition key elements that help us to fix the blurred line between elder abuse and other kinds of family violence. Finally we present a critical view of the theoretical framework. The goal of the paper is to provide elements to the discussion that allow us to better understand what we mean when we talk about elder abuse in the family and help us to design efficient responses.
