Particularly those constructed about peace in their daily practices and relationships with their children aged 11 to 14 years. Regarding methodological aspects, a qualitative design, interviews and content analysis on beliefs, care and socialization practices oriented to peace were applied. Theoretically, Jodelet were followed, he defines (SR) as a form of knowledge from common sense with ample capacity to interpret and explain social reality, in this case, peace in the family and daily spheres. As a result, it was found that although the mothers recognize the family as a place for peace building, there is a minimal political perspective among them since the overview of democracy, citizenship and the Havana agreements. In conclusion, peace is associated with the transmission of values such as respect, empathy and tolerance.
