Abstract: The history of childhood in national historiography has been made invisible as an object of study. Thinking about a story in which the subjects are visible, involves approaching childhood as the protagonist and rethinking the transmitted stories. In these lines we propose a tour of the main historical approaches that have investigated the same, and on the other hand the analysis of primary sources existing in our country. Taking into account their conceptual and contextual particularities. A socio-cultural approach allows to understand and to work from a qualitative study the complexity in each source. In these pages, the study of the Asilo de Expósitos y Huérfanos in relation to the treatment of the children will be approached, approaching the configuration of the idea of childhood. A story without childhood, is an incomplete discourse, its historicity therefore is a political necessity.

Palabras clave : childhood; abandonment; orphans; social constructions.
