Experiencias sexuales de una persona con síndrome de Down, y su lugar en los imaginarios parentales -estudio de caso-

The following research project intends to study how individuals with Down Syndrome live their sexual experiences as well as their place in a parenthood concept. In order to accomplish our objective, a descriptive, cross-sectional research diagnosis by following a hermeneutic (interpretative) perspective was proposed and conducted based on the analysis of various case studies. There were two volunteers in this research: a young adult of 24 years of age who has Down Syndrome and his mother a 63-years-old woman. The techniques used to collect information were characterized by the application of semi-structured interviews and observation of participants. As a result, it could, in a certain way, be discerned what this individual's perspective is in terms of how his/her family occupies a place within his/her sexual experiences as well as his/her family configurations and imaginaries taking place on DNS and sexuality on the parents side. Finally, it has been concluded that the way the family is structured and the social and family resources they count on, are of utmost importance to the development of the sexuality of this individual as well as the imaginaries (concepts) instilled into the family since they establish the basis and main support as to how their children, with DNS, sexuality must be constituted and to what extent their sexual exploration should reach as a configuration of their reality.
