In this work the homoclinic bifurcation of the family H={h(a,b)(x)=ax2 b:a∈R/{0},b∈R}
is studied. We proved that this family has a homoclinic tangency associated to x=0 of P1 for b=-2/a. Also we proved that Wu(P1) does not intersect the backward orbit of P1 for b>-2/a, but has intersection for b<-2/a with a>0. So H has this type of the bifurcation.
