This investigative / interventional exercise aims to understand the constructed narratives, which organize a family with a child with Down Syndrome through the knowledge of their life experience for the identification of resilient processes. To this end, a family with a daughter with Down Syndrome residents from the city of Bogotá, are the protagonists of this narrative. Through this interaction, we understood the narratives built against the experience from the systemic paradigm, the paradigm of complexity, socioconstructionism and second order cybernetics. For the reason, the investigative/ intervention was developed from a qualitative posture of second order, through five conversational contexts, where the system in its narratives gave the deductive categories, Down Syndrome, Family, Narrative Construction and Resilience. Thus, techniques and strategies that foment the understanding of the narratives constructed about the arrival of his daughter with down syndrome These narratives do not speak of the deficit but rather of alternate narratives. Even so, the system had not been given the opportunity to recognize the resources, actions, achievements, contributions of each member and meanings they have built to face the event, which was made visible by the investigators / interveners, thus favoring the strengthening of Their relationships and resilient process Within this process, instruments such as recordings and transcription outline foment a second look at the stories manifested by the family where acceptance, advancement, learning, among other words were repetitive in different scenarios. It is thus, as it gives way to an emergent category that they meant like " la Mara".
