Title:
Loving Through Bars Children With Parents In Prison
Location:
United States
There are millions of us ~ we are cloaked in shame, neglected and loving through prison bars...We are innocent victims; our lives are filled with instability and uncertainty and we are damaged by a stigma and shame. We have been neglected by our society, and lost in a vicious cycle that often leads to future criminality, and deviant social behavior. We are child prisoners. We are learning to understand living and loving through bars. The prisons we visit are bleak places but when you have someone you love behind those bars, the dark pit becomes less important then the stolen moments of being loved, of loving, that we feel when we are behind the prison walls.
