El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo contribuir a delimitar los contornos del maltrato hacia las personas mayores en el ámbito familiar una realidad caracterizada por su complejidad. Nos ocuparemos de algunas cuestiones en relación con la definición del fenómeno. Después hablaremos de los elementos esenciales del problema incluidos en su definición que nos ayuden a delimitar las difusas fronteras entre el maltrato familiar hacia los mayores con otras formas de violencia intrafamiliar. Por último planteamos una visión crítica del marco teórico sobre el fenómeno. Con este trabajo pretendemos aportar elementos a la discusión que nos permitan comprender mejor a qué nos referimos cuando hablamos de maltrato familiar contra las personas mayores y nos ayuden a diseñar respuestas eficaces.
