Summary/Abstract: The family has an important role in society and that is precisely why, in all the legislations of the contemporary world, it is protected through various moral or legal rules. The family life, the relationships between spouses, children and their relationship with their parents are protected through a number of provisions of the civil code, but there are cases which require some criminal measures. We appreciate that the Government considers the acts which meet the constitutive elements of the crime of abandonment as reprehensible not only from the point of view of criminal law, but especially in terms of morale, no matter what the criminal law states strictly.
